One of the latest additions to the cast of Bryan Singers Superman is Eva Marie Saint as Martha Kent.

Eva is no stranger to Hollywood having been part of one of the greatest films of all time, Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest. She began her career over 50 years ago and is about to become the adoptive mother to the one of the greatest super heroes of all time.

Superman starts shooting in early March 2005 and is expected to be a triumphant return to Hollywood. Bryan Singer has a talent of casting unknown and known actors to bring you some of the best ensemble casts seen on the big screen.

Before we see Eva Marie Saint become Martha Kent we will see her in the upcoming Fox film Because of Winn Dixie. This weekend we had the opportunity to speak with Eva and we asked her about her upcoming gig in Australia.

She also acknowledged that she is playing a widow. She is playing the same Martha Kent character that was married to Glenn Fords character, Pa Kent in the first film. This storyline will continue from where Superman 2 left off as previously reported.

Eva Marie Saint expressed her interest for the role. She said she is very excited about the project because her grand kids are thrilled about their grandma being in Superman.

She also mentions that she is trying to convince Bryan Singer to let Superman take Ma Kent flying in the film.

Eva also mentioned that the script is being kept under very close guard. Everything is under very tight security.
