I'm very upset about this. I thought Costner would have been perfect for the role after reading up on nature of the character. Hopefully Quentin'll be able to find someone worthy of replacing him and, if lucky, better suited for the role.

Seems like a stupid move. Unless Jonathan Kent lives through Man Of Steel, I see no reason for him to leave what seems to be a meatier role in a possible Oscar contender.

Well thats awkward... Sorry @messenger and Quentin Tarantino, I meant bad MOVE on Costner's part. =P
And horrible move on the editor's part to leave Costner's name in the list of cast members...

@messenger -- You should've been there to read my comment on the Twilight trailer, then. I said "basing" when I meant to say "bashing". I corrected it, though. ;)

Bad movie, wonder who they'll replace him with..

If Man of Steel is the problem, and it tanks, he'll be kicking himself. Superman's success is still highly questionable, whereas anything Tarantino makes is gold.
