Sorry, even with Twilight Kristen is hardly so “on top” that she would turn down iconic roles like Lois Lane.

It is likely either she never was offered the role, or she chose not to because even she could see how terrible a match this was.

And consider how many “cool” superhero love interests there have been? Natalie Portman for Thor, Gwenenth Paltrow and almost Scarlett Johanssen for Iron Man, Jennifer Connley and Liv Tyler for Hulk.

Every superhero on film or TV gets a hot love interest and they are all cooler than any insecure chick falling for some emo vampire.

Kristen is what she is, but she’s not passing on roles because they are beneath her.

Yeah smoking and booze will do that to you. Like Rodney said, Kidder was hot back when you were watching her as a kid. The first boob’s I ever saw on screen were her’s when she played the wife in Amityville Horror. Man was she hot! Still have fond memories of that day. I wish she would have taken care of herself better because I think she’d still be in demand today as an actress if she had.

Kidder is NOT hot anymore. I admit some of her images from the 70s were quite fetching in her own charming way, but as the years went on, not so much.

I personally think Superman 3’s Lana Lang (and eventually Smallville’s Martha Kent) Annette O’Toole is even more attractive now than she was back then.

Kidder did not hold up.

Dude, Margot Kidder is still hot… However, I’m thinking Emmy Rossum from Shameless…… Different Lane for a different Supes.

(If my girlfriend reads this… feck you, you talk bout hot dudes enough! :P)

She does smoke in the movie, which of course Kent tells her in his innocent Kansas farmboy way that it isn’t healthy. But it was the late 70s and smoking was so present that it didn’t seem out of place.

But clearly the years (and cigarettes) were not kind on her, and she got all unappealing.

Probally doesn’t, but she could definitly pass as a hobbit.

cute/sexy?-oh yeah!

Just doesnt scream Louis Lane to me.

McAdams, Wilde(flavor of the year),Hathaway (not happening)

those are easy sells-just dont want another miscast like last time.

and keep Parker Posey away from the set please!

I was 7 when it came out and your right Rod, back then she looked attractive, but after many viewings over the years she gave me a “Mom” feeling and the “Cigarette vibe” (maybee she smoked in the flick?-going off memory.)

But Shit was that a great film!
