Here's a quick update on Warner Bros. search or maybe I should say "fictitious search" based on the latest news that's emerged. Earlier this week, it was reported that is was a three horse race between Steve Kloves (Akira, The Amazing Spider-Man, Harry Potter franchise), Travis Beacham (Clash of the Titans, Pacific Rim), and Lawrence Kasdan (Paradise Lost, Raiders of the Lost Ark, Empire Strikes Back) to write the sequel to Zack Snyder's Man of Steel. Well, Travis Beacham has taken to Twitter, to report the following:
This denial from Beacham further puts that entire report into question, which also stated that
David S. Goyer (The Dark Knight) was off the short-list. I was skeptical about this rumor to begin with and in my initial posting listed this as a rumor but I'm now inclined to label this as completely false. It's too bad though, all of the writers on the list are top-knotch and I'm sure would've delivered a sequel that would've given us some new villains, at the very least.
Man of Steel is an upcoming American superhero film under the development of Zack Snyder, Christopher Nolan, and David S. Goyer. Based on the DC Comics character Superman, the film will be a reboot of the Superman film series. Using Chicago as a backdrop, and with production to be based in west suburban Plano, the film entered principal photography in August 2011, for a planned theatrical release on June 14, 2013 by Warner Bros., which also includes IMAX venues.
