‘Superman’ Update

Submitted by Michelle on Tuesday, 19 August 2008One Comment

Anne Thompson over on her Variety blog writes that Supes won’t be flying anytime soon.

“The debate continues to rage about what Warner Bros. should do with Superman. The last movie, Bryan Singer’s Superman Returns, paid homage to the Richard Donner Superman movies without completely updating the franchise the way Christopher Nolan did with Batman Begins.

Fans have been clamoring all over the web–and on this blog–for a complete reboot. And within the halls of Warner Bros. the same debate rages on. They too believe that the last movie didn’t break the mold and wound up in some kind of middle limbo. Today I was told that it is a priority at the studio to find the right direction and if Bryan Singer is willing to do that, fine, but if he gets in the way, he may not stay on the project. There are no writers working on a Superman script now. The studio wants to figure it out. “It might be better to start from scratch,” one exec admitted.”

OUCH! Are we looking at another reboot? Do we want more Superman or have the superhero fans moved on already drooling for more Iron Man and Batman?

    We can take more Superman if it is done in the style of The Dark Knight and Batman Begins and they re-cast Brandon for a super-looking Superman!
