Last week it was announced that composer Hans Zimmer would write the score for the upcoming Warner Bros reboot Superman: The Man of Steel. The news swept the internet like wildfire and before you knew it everyone was excited about Zimmer’s latest gig, everybody except for the man himself. According to THR, Zimmer has no plans to score the new Superman or try to improve upon John Williams’ original work.
We’ve got some big news regarding Warner Bros and their reboot of the upcoming Superman movie, The Man of Steel. According to Thompson on Hollywood, Hans Zimmer has been tapped to compose the score for the film. And for those of you wondering if Christopher Nolan will be holding the hand of director Zack Snyder throughout this journey, it’s not happening. The current DC/Warner Bros godfather will let Snyder have complete control of this one.
Is Anne Hathaway the go-to girl for strong female superhero love interests? A while ago we reported that she along with a group of equally talented actresses were in the running to star in the Batman sequel, The Dark Knight Rises. She was rumored to either be a love interest for Bruce Wayne or a villain for his alter ego. Either way, nothing has been confirmed and just when we thought we were over it another rumor has caught our attention. According to What’s Playing, Hathaway is a contender to play Lois Lane in the upcoming Superman reboot.
And so it begins, the casting for Warner Bros’ upcoming Superman reboot, Man of Steel. The film will be directed by Zack Snyder and produced by Christopher Nolan and it’s expected to take the beloved superhero into a darker direction. After finding the right production crew, it’s time to focus on the on screen talent. Who will actually play Superman? A casting announcement has hit the web and it gives us some insight as to what the studio is looking for.
Superman is getting a makeover. No, we’re not talking about another feature film, we’re talking about the new comic installment from DC entitled Superman: Earth One. The character is over 70 years old, but he’s been given a new lease on life with his updated and revamped look. Today, we got our first peek at the modernized Supes and he looks like he belongs at a 30 Seconds to Mars concert. Take a look…
Now the dust has settled, we should all be used to the fact that Zack Snyder will direct the next Superman. There are a lot of high hopes for this project considering the Man of Steel’s track record hasn’t been the best as of late. The last time we saw the character on the big screen was in 2006′s Superman Returns which was directed by Bryan Singer and starred Brandon Routh. Routh has expressed openly that he’d love to reprise his role in the new film but Snyder doesn’t think that’s going to happen.
