Many X-Men fans were disappointing when Bryan Singer left the X-Men franchise to pursue Superman Returns. They were even more upset when Fox announced that Brett Ratner would direct X-Men: The Last Stand. Now fans can rejoice because the man who brought us the first two films in the X-Men franchise is returning to the helm.
On the Avatar blue carpet last night MySpace asked Singer what he was doing next and his answer not only shocked those asking the question, but the thousands tuned into live MySpace feed. He said his next project is Jack the Giant Killer (aka Jack in the Beanstalk) and that he’d just signed on to direct X-Men First Class. What do you think of this news? As a story teller I think Singer will bring the missing element back to X-Franchise. I say “Welcome Back Bryan!”
See Singer say it for himself…
