Hi everyone, I hope you had a nice weekend. We'll start out the day here with an update on a story from last week...
The other day we talked about the rumor that Superman Returns director Bryan Singer would be directing a sequel to the film, with FilmIck saying that it was a done deal.
Variety confirms it today with a story about Singer signing a deal with Warner Bros. to produce and direct the follow-up to the mildly(?) successful Superman reboot. The film is tentatively scheduled for a summer 2009 release, but the studio stresses that there is no script yet (it isn't clear if Dan Harris and Michael Dougherty will return to put pen to page yet) and no budget has been agreed upon.
It is assumed that the budget will be highly scrutinized again, with Warner insisting that the budget stay well below $200 million.
