Brian Singer is doing it again. Warner Brothers is ready and waiting for him to direct the next Superman movie, a sequel to Superman Returns called Man of Steel. They want it in theaters for summer 2009. Singer on the other hand, is doing everything but making a new Superman movie.
Before making his next Superman movie we already knew that Singer would do one different movie. He’s directing a film called Valkyrie first, and then he was supposed to jump on Man of Steel shortly afterwards. Now though, Rottentomatoes reports that he’s dodging Superman to make Mayor of Castro, a movie about gay rights activist Harvey Milk.
Originally, most had believed Mayor of Castro would come after Superman, but as he did to Fox with X-Men 3 it looks like Singer is jerking the execs over at the WB around. How long before they give up on him and bring in Brett Ratner to ruin the franchise? Warner Brothers’ patience can’t be infinite. If they’re going to make another Superman movie, it needs to happen some time this decade. You know, before Brandon Routh starts going grey.
