MTV Shows "I think that the culture has sort of changed a little bit around Superman," McTeigue suggested regarding a "Superman Returns" follow-up. "If you're going to do something with Superman, I think people would probably like something a little darker." As we know, if they make a new movie it will be without Krypton's mention. "I think it's good that they just had a court case where, basically, if you make another Superman movie, you can't touch Superman growing up—that's part of the story that you can't touch any more," he previously said. "That wouldn't be a bad thing. I think everybody's a bit sick of seeing the origin story." "You need to take it and retool it," he said. "Make it something that appeals to audiences now a little more. McTeigue will not confirm or deny his involvement with a new Superman movie, but he seems to be talking about it quite a bit these days! The darker tone? If that means some more action and super powered fist fights I'm all for it, but Superman is not and never was a dark character. I hope these guys don't start thinking "Well, TDK was a huge success" and completely miss the point of the character!
