December 1, 2004: Jack Larson Turns Down Perry White Role?

Jack Larson, best known to Superman fans as Jimmy Olsen in "The Adventures of Superman" TV series of the 1950s, was reportedly offered the role of Perry White in the new Superman movie.

Charlie Scheips of The New York Social Diary reported that he had dinner with Jack Larson...

    We had seen director Bryan Singer at Gallin's luncheon that day who told us he was off to Australia to make the next Superman film. Jack [Larson] told us that they talked to him about playing the Perry White character but he's not a big traveler and won't leave his dog for any length of time.

Whether or not that means Jack Larson is definitely not taking the role of Perry White is as yet unconfirmed. Stay tuned for more details soon.
