Some news from the world of movie/comics cross-overs …
- Brian Singer has jumped ship from the X-Movie franchise, to direct (the latest among many) the new Superman flick — with yet another script, too (tossing the one by Alias‘ J.J. Abrams). Bad news on the X-front, since Singer’s done an amazing job with the first two movies, but it might actually be what’s needed to get the Supes movie off the ground (heh).
- An Avengers direct-to-DVD animated flick (one more more)? Ah, but based (to some degree) on The Ultimates. How PG-13/R are they going to let it be? How edgy/teen/tween are they going to target it?

Does Peters still have control of the Superman property? Will Singer be working out what riff on a Big Effing Spider to feature in the flightless, costumeless turkey?
Not sure. What I read, Peters was tied in closely with the Abrams script and McG direction.
AP, though, indicates he’s still on as the producer .
