Singer has spent the last months convincing us that he is doing all he can to get a sequel to Superman Returns up and running. Packaged with his words was a promise that he will go all Wrath of Khan with the next installment. What does that mean exactly? Action, action and more action.
But won't that cost more and turn Warner Bros off? Noooooooooo. With R&D now complete thanks to Superman Returns, the sequel can deliver more while costing much less. Warner Bros seems to like that very much.
Superman Returns Sequel Coming
According to the good people at IESB, the sequel to Superman Returns is a comin'. After doing some extensive nagging, the site has discovered a few new details on the project.
... We got this response - Warner Bros. does not comment on projects that are in development. A few calls later, other studio insiders confirmed that the deal was finalized last week and the team that brought Superman Returns to theaters earlier this year will return for the sequel.
We have been told that a couple of things are for certain. For one, the sequel will have a slightly smaller budget. Returns budget was approximately $208 million dollars with P&A (prints and ads) of about $50 million putting it at around $260. The sequel is expected to be around $140-175 million plus marketing.
The report goes on to explain that we can expect a ton more action; straight kudos to Singer. Check out the whole update at IESB.
