UPDATED! Which Writers Will Not Be Writing The SUPERMAN Sequel?? Will Singer Be Back??

IESB's "multiple sources" on the writers for the new SUPERMAN are evidently incorrect, according to CHUD. Orci and Kurtzman not only aren't writing the film... they haven't even been approached. One assumes the search for just the right take on this sequel continues. I'll just sit here waiting for my own phone to ring. Waiting... Waiting...

IESB has an interesting report about the status of the next SUPERMAN movie. Seems multiple sources have confirmed that Bryan Singer is "on board" the next film, despite persistent rumors he may not be coming back (word is Singer will re-consider/re-vamp his approach to the franchise in the next film). As previously noted, SUPERMAN RETURNS writers Michael Dougherty and Dan Harris are no longer with the sequel; indications are that Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman (Abrams' STAR TREK and Bay's TRANSFORMERS) may end up scripting the film. The original report, including a few more details, can be found HERE.
