Hey, did any of you guys know about this?



David Goyer (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Goyer) and Justin Marks (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justin_Marks) penned a script for a movie starring Green Arrow originally called Super Max. On June 5th, 2008, the film has recently been retitled Green Arrow: Escape from Super Max. The reported storyline is that the hero (framed for a crime he didn't commit) must escape a high security prison filled with B and C list villains and rogue superheroes.
MTV recently posted an interview with Marks on its site. In it, he says the following:
"It's a very, very awesome prison. I majored in architecture in college, and design is how I actually started in. For 'Super Max,' designing that prison, it had to be the kind of thing that was a character in and of itself," Marks said. "We're in a world where instead of just trying to contain a guy who's really big, you're trying to contain a guy who can — in the case of Icicle — who can freeze things. What kind of a cell would a guy like that need in order to have his powers neutralized? So to escape from Super Max they have got to go through the most elaborate heist we've ever seen, involving superpowers. Because the prison itself kind of has superpowers!" He added that Black Canary won't be making an appearance in the film, and that it will include cameos from the Riddler, Lex Luthor and the Joker. It is unknown if this film will have any continuity ties with Superman Returns (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superman_Returns) or The Dark Knight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Knight), the latter being very unlikely since Nolan's Batman (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Batman) universe hasn't shown any signs of being populated by superhumans.

Maybe it's yesterday's news, I dunno. Just read it on Wikipedia.
