We can now add “diehard Blade: Trinity fans” to that list; according to The Hollywood Reporter, Sony has now approached The Dark Knight and Man Of Steel writer (and occasional vampire-dusting director) David S. Goyer to take over the film, which has been in discussions and script re-writes for the last decade or so. That’s roughly how long it’s been since Goyer sat in the director’s chair on a movie set; his last film was 2009's The Unborn. Since then, he’s mostly worked as a writer and producer in superhero fare, recently penning the screenplay for Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice.
Goyer also wrote the most recent script for the Masters film, which has passed through a number of hands over the years as Hollywood’s combined literary talent tries to find a way to make “By the power of GREYSKULL!” sound a little less goofy coming out of actual human beings. Still, the writer-director carries a fair amount of clout in the industry; this might just be the infusion of energy that FrankWasTheBestSkeletor4295 has been waiting for all this time.
