Bryan Singer To Direct Wolverine? Don’t Count On It

There has been a lot of buzz floating around (for good reason) that Bryan Singer is the director of choice for the new Wolverine movie. To most X-Men fans this is like Jenna Jameson showing up on your door step proclaiming that she’s tired of all those rich sexy guys and now wants a man with more “substance” (which is a nice way of saying loser) like you. You get the picture.

No one would like to see Bryan Singer direct Wolverine (or have Jenna show up on my doorstep) more than me. But the reality is, that no matter how much Huge Jackman wants Singer… no matter how much Fox wants Singer… and no matter how interested Singer is in doing it… the fact of the matter is that the schedules just don’t line up in the least. The following is from Coming Soon:

With Hugh hoping to start production of Wolverine first few months of 2008 that would put Bryan in the middle of pre-production of Superman. So unless the Baz Luhrmann project is finished early, which won’t happen, or if Superman or Wolverine start production at a different time, it is safe to say that Bryan Singer will not direct Wolverine.

Fox isn’t about to put Wolverine off for another year, and Singer isn’t about to ditch his baby (Superman). So that’s that. Put those hopes and dreams to rest boys and girls. Singer isn’t directing Wolverine. But then again… this is Hollywood and stranger things have happened I suppose.
