January 3, 2008: No Superman for Singer? JLA Movie Delayed?

Variety.com's deputy editor Anne Thompson published an entry in her weblog stating that she thought Bryan Singer would not return to film another Superman movie, and that the "Justice League of America" movie would be delayed by the on-going Writer's strike...

    Speaking of DC Comics pics, it is highly unlikely that Bryan Singer will return to shoot the next Superman movie. (The director is finishing up Tom Cruise's Nazi film Valkyrie, and prepping The Mayor of Castro Street). The next Superman we will see on the big screen will not be Brandon Routh, but a younger Superman among a cast of youthful superheroes in The Justice League. That movie will likely not be shot, however, until after the WGA strike is resolved.

Thomspon, using words such as "unlikely" and "likely" in making the predictions above, doesn't reveal who her sources are for such information and is likely just stating her personal opinion.
