Arrrrrgggggggghhhhhhh!!!!!! Nooooooooo!!!!!!
Warner Bros have signed Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects/X-Men) to direct Superman!
Singer, 38, signed a deal to direct last week and his X-Men writers Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris have also signed to work on the long awaited production.
Warner Bros moved for Singer after McG walked away from the $200 million movie last week. Tim Burton and Brett Ratner have also walked away from the movie in recent years.
"My interest in Superman dates back many, many years," says Singer "I feel that Superman has been late in his return and it is time for him to fly again."
Unfortunately Singer's involvement in Superman means he will not direct X-Men 3. 20th Century Fox will now look for a new director to continue their X-Men franchise.
While I think that Singer could do a great job with Superman and actually get the movie made BUT I would much rather see an X-Men 3! I just haven't been that excited about a new Superman movie all along and now I'm really pissed! Even if Singer quits/gets fired from Superman at some point, it may be too late for him to go back to X-Men 3. *pout*
