San Andreas Director Brad Peyton Would Like To Direct Superman

Director Brad Peyton was once attached to direct a live-action Lobo movie for Warner Bros, but it never materialized. During a San Andreas press event, Peyton was asked if he has interest in any other superheroes.

"I really, really like Superman," Peyton told Digital Spy. "Obviously, Batman is super cool, but the only problem with Batman is that Tim Burton who is probably my biggest influence as a kid made Batman and then Christopher Nolan just knocked that out of the park. Superman, I really like the juxtaposition. It's cool that the strongest guy in the room can be the flub at work. I always find it so tragic and such a phenomenal concept that Lois Lane loves Superman, but doesn't look at Clark Kent. I just think that is such a phenomenal aspect of a character dynamic."

The shame is that Lois Lane (Amy Adams) already found out that Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) is Superman, so it snuffs out the aspect of Superman's story that Peyton would want to focus on. Maybe WB can give him a call the next Superman needs a reboot.

Listen to Peyton's comments in the video below.
