‘Superman’ getting another reboot …

Comic Book Movie is reporting that there is a ‘Superman’ reboot in the works after the success of the recent ‘Hulk’ reboot..

“Mark’s big dream is making a Superman movie.
He said: “Since I was a kid I’ve always wanted to reinvent Superman for the 21st century.
“I’ve been planning this my entire life. I’ve got my director and producer set up, and it’ll be 2011. This is how far ahead you have to think.
“The Superman brand is toxic after that last movie lost Û200million, but in 2011 we’re hoping to restart it.
“Sadly I can’t say who the director is, but we may make it official by Christmas.
“But fingers crossed it could work out, that would be my lifetime’s dream.””

This will probably be the quickest reboot of a franchise in the history of reboots, and it is much deserved. Like ‘Batman’, ‘Superman’ is one of the superheroes where there is no excuse for it to not have a great movie franchise.
