This is good news since the X-Men movies were pretty good. By reading the article it sounds like there have been a ton of complications. I wonder who will play the part of Superman?

Bah, not another superhero movie! Though X-Men was pretty good, so hopefully, like you said, this one will be too.

I'm excited about Singer on Superman. It's, hands down, a better choice than that glorified music video director McG. Singer's influence for the X-Men films came from Richard Donner's Superman, so it's a good bet he won't lead 'Big Blue' astray.

Superman has been in pre-production for so long. At one point they Nick Cage was asked to play Clark Kent. I'm glad Brian Synger came and saved the franchise, WB was most likely going to bury the project without him.

hmm .. I hadn't heard that nick cage left the project. I had heard about this movie something like 4 years ago .. but haven't since..
