Now nobody wants to put too much stock in AICN rumours - especially after Scorched Planet's short-sighted and idiotic AVP stunt - but if this one turns out to be true it could be the best news we've had in 5 years.

Harry is claiming that Bryan Singer, Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris, the creative team behind X-2 have signed up to create a whole new Superman movie from scratch, binning everything that has come before and pressing forward with what has been tentatively titled - Superman Returns.

Word is that Logans Run and X-3 have both been put on hold. There is dispute over what will happen to the projects with rumour being that X-3 may press on ahead without Singer at the helm should he decide to go with Logan's Run.

Rumors of Singer & co's plan is that they wish to bin the whole "reimagining" angle and make this movie connect in somehow to Richard Donner's work - the hows and whys are not clear especially with regards to the previous sequels.

Has the success of Spider-Man II's intelligent yet action-packed goodness mixed with the runaway positive energy being lapped towards Batman Begins finally made WB pull their socks up in the best possible way?

When we find out the truth behind these rumours, we'll bring you them!
