Edward Gross at <a href="http://www.comicflicks.com">ComicFlicks.com</a> recently interviewed J.J. Abrams (creator of the television series Felicity for TheWB and Alias for ABC, and screenwriter of such films as Armageddon) about the upcoming Superman movie to be directed by McG (Charlie's Angels). Here's a clip...
What's the approach to the material?
What's nice is that after a lot of years of trying to get this going and not succeeding, everyone's coming at it with a very fresh, open mind. What's exciting for me is that we've got some incredible, really big ideas that go beyond just the one story we're telling. ALIAS has actually been an amazing training ground for me. In this Superman we're talking a lot about where he's come from and where he's going. I can't talk about specifics, but I can tell you that there are a lot of exciting, big ideas. I think it's Superman for everyone and not just for people who already know the character. Its for the uninitiated.
