Kevin Costner seems to have nabbed the role of Jonathan Kent (Clark's father) and Viggo Mortensen has supposedly been approached to play General Zod, the role made famous by Terence Stamp in Superman II.
Neither actor has been 100% by the studio at this stage but the news does come from inside sources close to Christopher Nolan and Zack Snyder's camp, although they could of course turn down the roles...
We'll just have to wait and see. I'm more interested in who is playing Lois seeing as Kate Bosworth was toxic in Superman Returns!
