In a recent interview, writer Mark Millar (Wanted, The Ultimates, Superman: Red Son) mentioned that he had been approached about revamping the Superman franchise. The revamp would be a trilogy, with all three films shot consecutively.
Millar said:
"A director approached me about three months ago and he said, 'Look, The Man Of Steel [the planned Bryan Singer sequel]
might not be happening. If that doesn’t happen, it has been spoken about the possibility of me coming in, would you like to write it?’ And I was like, 'Yeah.'" Millar went on to say:
“I’ve had this plan for like 10 years for a big three-picture Superman thing, like a big Lord of the Rings epic, starting over from scratch again with a seven-hour Superman story. And hopefully release them one year after another…if it works out, we’ll have to start shooting next summer.” Check out all of Brent Sprecher’s exclusive interviews with today’s hottest comic book professionals!
