Great Caesar’s Ghost! In town to chat about his upcoming turn as former US President Richard Nixon in “Frost/Nixon,” veteran stage and screen actor Frank Langella spared a few moments to chat with MTV News about the possibility of reprising his 2006 role in “Superman Returns” as one of comics’ most famous editors-in-chief, Perry White.

“I have a very strong sense that there will be another ‘Superman,’ and that I will play Perry White in it,” said Langella when asked about a potential return as the editorial chief of The Daily Planet, the newspaper of repute in DC Comics’ fictional city of Metropolis. (In case you missed it, “Superman Returns” director Bryan Singer gave us his own thoughts about a potential sequel yesterday, while the son of “Superman” actor Christopher Reeves also offered up some sequel advice to MTV.)

“I don’t know when that will be and I don’t know who the players will be in it,” continued Langella. “I don’t even know if Bryan [Singer] will direct it, but I’m sure he’s considering it and [Warner Bros.] is talking back and forth about it.”

The character of Perry White, first introduced in the “Superman” radio serials in 1940 and then later into the comics, has had a longstanding part in developing the Man of Steel’s mythology — as both an outspoken supporter of his heroic deeds and as the employer of Superman’s alter ego, Clark Kent. Langella’s performance in “Superman Returns” followed in the footsteps of several other notable actors who portrayed the character, including Jackie Cooper (”Superman: The Movie”) and Lane Smith (”Lois and Clark”), who coincidentally enough, also went on to play Richard Nixon in “The Final Days.”

“I agreed to do three [films],” said Langella. “Of course, Warners could decide they want Meryl Streep to play Perry White in it… for a different take.”
