"I'm hearing David Goyer could very well wind up directing Green Lantern Corps himself," said The Tracking Board's Jeff Sneider, speaking on the Meet the Movie Press show.

[...]

"When you look at screenwriters that are taking the plunge and directing these movies themselves, we saw rumours last month that Simon Kinberg was going to direct the next X-Men movie.

"David Goyer is responsible for this entire DC Universe, he wrote Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. He wrote Man of Steel. He is the architect, if you will.

"He is writing and producing Green Lantern Corps, so it's just very well, what I have heard, one of those situations where he could be like, 'Listen, I think I may be the best guy for the job, nobody knows this like I do'."

Goyer is already set to write and produce the film, which is set for a 2020 release.

CGI eyes onto me if old.

 

[BoogieWoogie]

Stay winning DC.

 

[Dash_Riprock]

God is dead.

[Riptwo]

I'm sure the Blade: Trinity fans will be ecstatic.

 

[Whompa02]

He's such a mixed bag. This news does not shake me one way or the other...

 

[shira]

Get Ryan Reynolds to star.

WB only knows three directors, apparently.

 

[Hagi]

Terrible idea

LOCK HIM UP

 

[George Oscar Bluth II]

Is Jeff Sneider reliable?

Isn't he the guy that said there's a 95% Spider-Man won't be white in the MCU?

 

[Saucycarpdog]

In darkest night..........

 

[jelly]

Just don't bother. Let Snyderverse burn.

Yeah and Blade: Trinity turned out so well, right?

 

[Magwik]

Oh cool we are still blaming Goyer for Man of Steel which was a good movie anyways but completely overlooking the rest of his work. Dude is good enough, did good with Constantine, it's whatever.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Did he get released from tv/movie jail?

Also the same people who said Deadpool was going to be PG-13

 

[Pandora012]

Maybe when he roll the die this time it's a win?

 

[Ray Down]

If true, source is not the best.

 

[The Silver]

If Goyer is the Architect then is Snyder, Roman Reigns?

 

[Screaming Meat]

That'll work out well.

 

[neorej]

If this is true, I want Nicholas Cage in the leading role.

 

[KraftyKrankins]

At this point someone high-up in there MUST be doing it to screw them over.

 

[Sir_Crocodile]

Another garbage fire film then

This is three days late and has already been debunked by Justin Kroll at Variety.

Just sayin'.

 

[Ross61]

Justin Kroll already debunked this

In regards to @TheInSneider "prediction", lets just say WB is perfectly happy with Goyer just writing GL

 

[Discotheque]

Could be worse than suicide squad. This man is absolute shit when he gets behind the camera as well

Edit: ah cool. Good thing it seems they might not be considering it. Still, somebody should be writing with goyer and Johns. Don't wanna leave those two alone

BUT THE DCEU IS DOOMED

 

[Azuran]

In one hand we have Kevin Feige. On the other one we have David Goyer.

lol

I do have to say, my favorite recent thing is watching Kroll troll Sneider!

Will Deadpool be back for this?

 

[LiK]

Fucking hell.

 

[Lebron]

Gonna be bad whoever directs it

I think he's had a couple hits, but his ratio is skewing more and more in the misses column lately.

And by lately, I mean the last few years.

RUMOR IS BULLSHIT, EVERYBODY.

 

[Maximus.]

How do they justify this guy getting another chance?

Edit: debunked I see.

 

[Bronx-Man]

Debunked, thank god.

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

RUMOR IS BULLSHIT, EVERYBODY.

Oh, thank god.
I don't mind Goyer as a screenwriter but the last thing we need is him directing a DC film.

 

[Penguin]

RUMOR IS BULLSHIT, EVERYBODY.

As Kroll put it...

are predictions scoops that you arent sure about yet but are couching as a prediction in case they dont turn out to be correct

coming from the guy making "predictions" instead of dropping scoops #putyourmoneywhereyourmouthis #andpostitonthesite

So I guess WB just doesn't want the DCCU to be good?

 

[Spyder_Monkey]

Why the hell is Goyer even writing this?

That wasn't angry! Just trying for "eyecatching" so people on their way down to hitting "post reply" see it.

 

[Wingfan19]

This is the point in the thread where we see the people that haven't bothered to read through the FIRST PAGE and just drive by post with their "hot take"... Can't wait. Popcorn.gif

Ahhhh.

Sorry.

 

[The Kree]

These Chris Evans gifs putting in work today.

 

[Ashhong]

And yet we still have people posting overused Chris Evans gifs

What a poor article regardless. The Nolan trilogy isn't even part of this universe. In what way is he the architect of it?
