So now that the dust has settled somewhat on the big news from last night, here are the details. Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead, 300, Watchmen, Legend of the Guardians and Sucker Punch ) will be directing the Christopher Nolan-produced David Goyer-scripted Superman for WB. THR is reporting that “like Superman Returns, it’s rumored to have a connection to Richard Donner’s Superman films. In this case, it’s the villain, General Zod.”
Snyder told USA Today: “Mainly male (superheroes), have gotten to evolve over the years. Batman. The X-Men. But I think the first (Superman) movies were so well done, he kind of got stuck. I think our challenge is to bring him to a modern audience that’s still respectful of the character.”
Brandon Routh is probably not going to return if they seem to be starting over again, which is sad because I though he did a fine job and no one can say anyone else looks more like Superman than him. If there is one hero that doesn’t need an origin story, it’s Superman. Leave it to the animated opening credits because I know they don’t have to explain one of the most iconic figures of all time again. Zod is a good choice, there is only so many times Superman can fight Kryptonite, so have him brawl with someone who has the same powers, fair fight.
Zack Snyder confirms that as soon as he completes post on Sucker Punch, he’ll move right into the Man of Steel. “I’ve been a big fan of the character for a long time, he’s definitely the king of all superheroes, he’s the one,” Snyder told Deadline. “It’s early yet, but I can tell you that what [screenwriter] David [S. Goyer] and Chris have done with the story so far definitely has given me a great insight into a way to make him feel modern”. If I see Superman updating his facebook status in this movie, I’m out.
Zack Snyder’s Superman will target a holiday 2012 release.
Warner Bros. has officially confirmed for US release, Superman: The Motion Picture Anthology. It will be released on June 7, 2011 in an eight-disc set that contains all five films (Superman: The Movie, Superman II, Superman III, Superman IV: The Quest For Peace, and Superman Returns) as well as the alternate versions of the first two movies and over 20 hours of special features.
