Bryan Singer may
return for Superman sequel

Bryan Singer's Superman Returns doesn't open until June 30, but Variety reports that Warner Bros. is already set to ask the out director to make the sequel. Superman star Brandon Routh is already contractually bound to a sequel, but Singer--whose credits include The Usual Suspects and the X-Men films--is not. Warner Bros. is clearly enthusiastic about its new wave of superheroes, since it is also cooking up a sequel to the 2005 hit Batman Begins. If Singer does take a second crack at the Man of Steel, he'll have to find room for it among two other projects he's committed to at Warner Bros.--a remake of the science fiction cult hit Logan's Run and the long-awaited screen adaptation of The Mayor of Castro Street, Randy Shilts's biography of slain gay politician Harvey Milk that was also the basis of the Oscar-winning documentary The Times of Harvey Milk.
