It appears that Mark Millar’s (Wanted) eight-hour trilogy plans to reboot the Superman franchise won’t be happening. He revealed that not only did the studio shoot down his pitch, but the whole franchise has been stalled.

"Warner’s talked to us and a few other writer/ director teams, but things seem to be in stasis right now,” he said. “As far as I understand, nothing is happening with Superman at the moment and so the director and I are just working on another project.

“If it happens, great. If it doesn’t, no biggie. Kick-Ass taught me that creating your own stuff can be at least as much fun and you don’t have to answer to anyone. It’s the future, baby.”
