Columbus Discovers Supes?

Word is that Chris Columbus has been offered the helm on Superman: Man of Steel says Superman Homepage

The second film reboot of Supes is already slated for release in December of 2012.Christopher Nolan was brought on back in February to shepherd/produce the pic being written by David S. Goyer (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight) and Jonathan Nolan but, this is the first word given about who might call action...

"...Goyer really wanted to direct but nobody from [the studios involved] think he’s good in that arena,” reveals the studio insider. “He’s great at coming up with story and ideas, like George Lucas. It’s his execution where he’s weak..."

Columbus' previous films include Adventures In Babysitting, Mrs. Doubtfire, and the first two Harry Potter films--As well as IMHO very underrated Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief

MTV reports that the suits think he's "the right fit"

You know what? So do I....Especially with TDK team watching his back.

Stay Tuned...
