Josh Hartnett Out Of 'Superman' Race


It's back to the drawing board for Warner Bros. Pictures in its casting of Superman, according to Hollywood Reporter.

Josh Hartnett, who had tested for the project, has elected not to portray the Man of Steel, so a new trio of actors has emerged as top choices: Brendan Fraser, Paul Walker and newcomer Matthew Bomer, whose only credits include the daytime dramas "Guiding Light" and "All My Children."

Warner Bros. are trying to make test deals for the actors, with hopes of putting them in front of the camera sometime next week.
