I wish they woudl stop interupting Christopher Nolan so he can finish his work on Batman 3 and throw some thumbs up at Superman reboot.
Nolan got chatting about the progress thus far, and its progress.
Although he was reluctant to dicuss Batman 3, he did give us some insight as to how far along the project was.
“I don’t like to talk too much about things until I’m further along with them. I’m working on the script right now. My brother Jonah has done a draft of the script and now I’m writing on it.”
When questioned about whether or not the movie was yet to be greenlit, Nolan said:
“We have set a release date [July 20th, 2012] and as far as the film being officially greenlit – they haven’t told me they don’t want to do it. So I’m hopeful!”
He also talked about the shortlist for a Superman director:
Tony Scott (Unstoppable, The Taking of Pelham 123)
Matt Reeves (Let Me In, Cloverfield)
Jonathan Liebesman (Battle: Los Angeles, Clash of the Titans 2)
Duncan Jones (Moon, Source Code)
Zack Snyder (300, Watchmen, Sucker Punch)
I am going to blindly vote for Matt Reeves to carry on the tradition of completely unrelated people in Superman films with Reeve in their name.
George Reeves played Supes in the 50s, Christopher Reeve played Superman in the late 70s and 80s, so its appropriate that they let Matt Reeves Direct.
Come on! Matt Reeves middle name is GEORGE. How can they pick anyone else???
Who would you pick.
