И снова о комиксах))
Теперь некий Марк Миллар, шотландский автор книги комиксов о Супермене и чьи произведения уже были перенесены на большой экран - Wanted и Kick-Ass - заявил, что кастингом его мечты в проекте о супермене является Дэн в роли Lex Luthor. Daniel Craig and Clint Eastwood cast in Mark Millar's dream Superman film
MARK MILLAR has reaffirmed his interest in reviving Superman on the big screen.
He says his dream cast would include Daniel Craig as Lex Luthor, Clint Eastwood as Pa Kent and Daniel Day-Lewis and Julianne Moore as Clark's biological parents Jor-El and Lara.
Millar is the Scottish comic book writer whose Wanted and Kick-Ass titles have been adapted for the big screen, with the latter due out on April 16.
He also wrote the acclaimed miniseries Red Son (pictured right) in which Superman was instead raised in the USSR.
Millar and Kick-Ass director Matthew Vaughn have for some time been interested in rebooting the Superman film series and previously proposed a Lord of the Rings-style trilogy for the hero.
Speaking on his forum Millarworld, the scribe pondered the possibilities and asked fans if he should pursue his vision for a new Superman movie.
Millar (pictured below left) wrote: "Financially, it makes so much sense for us to do one of our own properties next, either Nemesis or American Jesus or whatever.
"But Matthew and I talk all the time about the notion of revamping Superman for a new generation (and YES, 30-somethings, that DOES mean an origin to explain where the hell he came from to my daughter and her pals).

"We had so much fun casting around on all this, just idle chats in the pub as we scribbled our notes. Imagine Daniel Craig as Lex Luthor, Clint Eastwood as Pa Kent, Daniel Day-Lewis and Julianne Moore as Jor-El and Lara. And the idea one of our production team had for Jimmy Olsen is just genius. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. What do YOU guys think? You wanna see the Kick-Ass team REALLY go after Superman or develop something else?"
With some fans saying he should do it, and others not so keen, Millar added: "I have no doubt we'd do a great Superman movie. Matthew has stated that Bond has been revamped, as has Batman, Star Trek and all the other favourites from our childhood.
"Superman never really got that revamp so much as a finale to the Donner movies [in Bryan Singer's Superman Returns]. So he's still primed for a reboot for a new century and a new audience.
"That said, I love it too much to do something compromised. Something that means notes from lots of people who thought it was awesome to have him in bed at the end of the last movie. I dunno. Is it worth the grief? I love Superman too much to do something that wouldn't be perfect. Kick-Ass was an amazing experience. It's just how I want to work now."
