Rumor Mill: Wachowski Brothers To Make Superman Trilogy? And News On The Logan's Run Remake

Snce it isn't from me - it's unconfirmed, but...

Ballack of Ain't It Cool News Spills Some alleged Beans:

Ninja Assassin by James McTeigue is being produced by Hollywood heavyweight Joel Silver. Ballack reports that while in Berlin McTeigue said the following:
1.)"Ninja Assassin is locked and complete," and "Action scenes are absolutely brutal, unbelievable vision from the Wachowski's in blocking the fights with the Hong Kong stunt team."

2.) McTeigue confirmed that Plastic Man was the next project in the pipeline for the Wachowski's and he had been signed on to provide Second Unit support. Says the movie has been delayed indefinitely due to a major shake up of projects at WB.

3.) Bryan Singer has refused to undertake a re-boot of the Superman franchise.

4.) 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.

5. Regarding Logan's Run, McTeigue reportedly stated "Bryan Singer is looking to move on to Logan's Run, a movie to be produced by Joel Silver."
