JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK Said To Be Eyeing Argentinean Director Damián Szifron To Replace Doug Liman
Now that Doug Liman has departed the project, Warner Bros.' Justice League Dark movie is going to need a new director, and the latest name to be thrown into the mix is Damián Szifron...
When it was announced that Doug Liman had decided to step away from WB's Justice League Dark movie, IT director Andy Muschiett was also said to be on the studio's radar, and now another name has emerged as a possible replacement.
On the latest episode of Meet The Movie Press, Jeff Sneider revealed that Argentinian filmmaker Damián Szifron is also in the mix. Szifron is relatively unknown Stateside, though he is still attached to helm Universal's stalled Six Billion Dollar Man movie, and he brought us the brilliant Argentine black comedy anthology film, Wild Tales.
We don't know if any negotiations have taken place yet or if Szifron is just someone the studio has an eye on, but we'll update if we find out more. WB definitely seems determined to get Justice league Dark up and running ASAP, so we can probably expect some kind of official announcement over the next coupe of weeks.
