It’s wonderful to see Shane Black getting the acclaim that he so richly deserves, and while we all wait for his take on Death Note to come to fruition, it sounds as if Black will be stopping off first to meet The Man of Bronze.
According to The Wrap, Sony Pictures Entertainment has closed its deal with Iron Man 3 director Shane Black to co-write and direct Doc Savage, which Black is eying as his next film.
One of the most popular characters of the pulps of the 1930s and 40s, Doc Savage was also popularized on radio, film and television. He is a scientist, physician, adventurer, inventor, explorer and researcher. He has been trained since birth to be nearly superhuman in every way with outstanding strength, a photographic memory and vast knowledge and intelligence. He uses his skills and powers to punish evil wherever in the world he finds it.
Black co-wrote the screenplay with Anthony Bagarozzi and Charles Mondry. Neal H. Moritz is producing the project with Ori Marmur through his Original Film banner.
