Comic book fans were excited to see the man who brought "Blade" to the screen and resurrected Batman from the Joel Schumacher era do his take on The Flash. Alas, he has moved on to "Supermax," his adaptation of The Green Arrow.
"It’s so funny because it ended up happening the same day as Joss Whedon on ‘Wonder Woman’," said David S. Goyer of "The Flash." "We ended up a week later, two weeks later having lunch together, Joss and I."
A sort of genre impresario now, Goyer can pick and choose his comic book movies and doesn’t need to settle for less. "When you start out, you just want to get a job or you just want to get your movie made or things like that. I reached a point, I don’t know how many years ago, where if I got a set of notes that I really didn’t believe in, I wouldn’t do. So then either I walk or I don’t walk or something like that. ‘The Flash,’ I still have a great relationship with Warner Brothers. I turned around a month later and sold them ‘Supermax.’ It just became apparent that we wanted to do two different stories.”
Unfortunately, there is no news on "Supermax," the current working title. "It’s being written. I wish I had a more interesting answer than that. Just the writers started working like a week ago."
