From Hero To God

Comics creator Mark Millar (Wanted) had an eight-hour trilogy plan to reboot the "Superman" film franchise looks like it wont be happening.

All I can say is yahoo!

Millar told Slashfilm, this week that not only did the studio nix his pitch premise, but the whole franchise is still very much stalled:

"Warner’s talked to us and a few other writer/ director teams, but things seem to be in stasis right now. As far as I understand, nothing is happening with Superman at the moment and so the director and I are just working on another project. If it happens, great. If it doesn’t, no biggie. Kick-Ass taught me that creating your own stuff can be at least as much fun and you don’t have to answer to anyone. It’s the future, baby.”

Personally I thought his plans for Supes were terrible...

Is the director he refers to Matthew Vaughn and the project "American Jesus"an adaptation of Millar's "Chosen"? The news via The Hollywood Reporter.
