Christopher Nolan, director of The Dark Knight, has a new superhero movie project in the works: Superman. It is unlikely Nolan will be directing this new movie. Instead he has been chosen by Warner Bros. to act as a "godfather" to the film, performing more as a mentor to help the project get off the ground. This movie will be another reboot of the Superman universe, after a poor reception of the previous relaunch, Superman Returns.
Christopher Nolan is also working on a script for Batman 3 with David Goyer and brother Jonah Nolan. There is no production or release date yet for this latest film in the Batman series, which is set to be a sequel to The Dark Knight.
