Kevin Costner Soaring Into Superman Role?

Inneresting! We wonder what role he could be up for!
Sources are reporting that Kevin Costner is in talks to star in a “key role” in the new Superman reboot. Supposedly, Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. are eager to have him star alongside Henry Cavill in the new superhero flick, but no is saying yet who’d he play.
Let’s see. He’s a bit old for Lex Luthor and we’ll assume that Jonathan Kent is dead at this point considering Superman’s age. Maybe Perry White? That could be a good fit?
Do U have any thoughts on who he might play.
