Kevin Spacey is set to play Superman's arch-enemy Lex Luthor in the upcoming Superman Returns.

Kate Bosworth (who starred in Beyond The Sea alongside Spacey) and the unknown Brandon Routh will play Lois Lane and Clark Kent/Superman.

This will be Warner Bros' second recent major comic-book adaptation, following the upcoming Batman Begins, directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Christian Bale.

Bryan Singer's Superman Returns will tell the story of Superman's return to Earth after a long absence, reports the Guardian.
