Report: Christopher Nolan finally speaks on the new “Superman” project!!!

Christopher Nolan has been pretty quiet ever since jumping aboard to mentor the new “Superman” movie for Warner Bros. Now Chris Nolan finally speaks out about the project to the L.A. Times. The story and plot to the next “Superman” movie is NOT being revealed and being kept under wraps for now, but Nolan and the writer, David Goyer, already have a great story planned out. David Goyer have been confirmed the writer for the next, “Superman” movie, but they shoot down rumours of Lex Luthor and Brainiac as the next villains. Who will be the next villain for Superman? Nobody knows yet. Lex Luthor will probably be involved in some way as he always is, but there will probably be more villains.

Nolan says, the next film will NOT be like Bryan Singer’s “Superman: Returns”, it’ll be their own take on it. Nolan says he knows the Superman character very well and knows the genre very well. Something tells me he’s been reading Superman and Batman comics for years ever since he was a child. Nolan the comic book expert he is, indeed. No wonder Warner Bros. wanted him to help!

Nolan says they will make the next Superman movie right and promises Hollywood they won’t be disappointed with this one.

Very cool. I’m so excited for the next Superman movie. For a villain they should really use a villain that hasn’t been used before in the earlier films. Brainiac is a good idea.

Other popular Superman comic book villains that hasn’t been used yet for a film: Doomsday, The Toyman, Parasite, Imperiex, Eradicator, Bloodsport, and Atomic Skull.

It will be interesting to see what villains Nolan and Goyer will pick. Lets hope it won’t be Luthor or General Zod.
