Best. Rumor. EVER.

For those of you who don't know, aintitcool.com is the leading source for accurate and validated "rumors" on the internet. They mostly divulge rumors about movies and often conduct their own interviews with actors, directors, and producers, and then posts the results. It's a fairly legit site that doesn't post any old stupid fanboy rumor (*cough* imdb *cough*). Aintitcool.com takes "rumors"only from the primary source. ;)

And today I read the BEST rumor I could have read. See here:

"Bryan Singer has refused to undertake a re-boot of the Superman franchise and has left the Executives at WB with no choice but to take a fresh creative direction.

He stated the Wachowski Brothers had been approached to re-boot the franchise as a trilogy and they are currently reviewing their options as its like being asked to take the final play in a superbowl final. Says if they do agree, he will likely either succumb to providing second unit support on the movie or will champion the directorship of Plastic Man - He started to giggle as he stated its like a young child for the Brothers and they wont give that up easily.

Says, the very thought of the brothers making a superman movie is unbelievable as they have grown up in the world of comic books and they would be ideal for the project.

Stated that Bryan Singer is looking to move on to Logan's Run a movie to be produced by Joel Silver."

In my opinion, havign the Wachowski brothers (Matrix, Speed Racer) do Superman is only a winning combination. It would be AMAZING. I think I would have a seziure of glee.

P.s. For the record, the top photo is just a joke. Of course it wouldn't be the matrix cast in the new movie. :P

While the Wachowski brothers have done one amazing thing after another (add V for Vendetta to that list), I'd be a little skeptical about them doing Superman. I'm not saying they can't do it, just I'm not sure if they can.

On a side note, having Bryan Singer do Plastic Man would be amazing!
