This from Variety:
"Fox is: rebooting “Fantastic Four” with “Green Lantern” scribe Michael Green and producer Akiva Goldsman; mobilizing a “Wolverine” sequel and several “X-Men” spinoffs; is quietly developing a new version of “Daredevil” and working on a Silver Surfer film. Sony recently set James Vanderbilt to write the fifth and sixth installments of “Spider-Man,” and Universal continues work on “Sub-Mariner.” Paramount continues as distributor for “Iron Man 2” and several others expected to include “Thor” and “Captain America.”
These properties have to move forward so the studios can keep the rights to the characters. That's it, that's the reason we are forced to suffer through badly made movies. It's also the reason we get some good ones as well. With Marvel now being financially backed by Disney I have NO problem with any property going back to be developed by the company that created that character in the first place. Marvel/Disney = Money in the bank to do these characters justice. No more crappy special effects. Even in bad Disney movies the effects are still grade A.
