Coming: A Superman Epic

Quote:
Mark Millar on His 8-Hour Superman Epic
Source:Empire Online, Ken
October 29, 2008


Empire Online talked to Mark Millar (Wanted, upcoming Kick-Ass) more about his proposed "Superman" epic. Here are several clips from the article:

Mark has been working closely with a 'big-Hollywood action director' – who he refuses to name at this stage – on a pitch for what he is calling the Magnum Opus of Superman stories. His idea is for an 8-hour saga, split into 3 films to be released a year apart, in a Lord of the Rings fashion.

"I want to start on Krypton, a thousand years ago, and end with Superman alone on Planet Earth, the last being left on the planet, as the yellow sun turns red and starts to supernova, and he loses his powers."


You can read the entire interview here.
this sounds very very cool to me

Not sure. Superman has been played out IMO. The last one stunk it up. The last two for that matter. Loved the comic book as a lad though.

Mark Millar is a helluva writer, as long as they don't bastardize his ideas like they did with Wanted this should be awesome.

that would be a great way to introduce yourself as the next coach, just step to the podium and rip your shirt off revealing a Power T
