I just spoke to Jonathan at the press junket for SURROGATES. I asked him the burning question every Marvel fan wants to know. Is he directing SUB-MARINER? He told me that it’s still in development and he’s working on it. He couldn’t give me any details because, as he said, any Marvel project is pretty secretive. He said, “you really have to get the script right for this sort of thing.”
Makes sense. The man…I mean “homo-mermanus”…fights with fish, lived in Atlantis, was shaved by the Human Torch and has a crush on Sue Storm. Wouldn’t be hard to mess that up, would it?
Touche Ms. Busch. While either of the underwater superheroes (Namor or Aquaman) would be tough to pull off, I’m glad Marvel hasn’t totally abandoned the idea. Do you care much about a SUB-MARINER movie?
