Rumor has it that black actress Regina King is interested in directing a black version of Superman

After winning the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for her directorial debut last year, One Night in Miami, black-ish actress Regina King has become one of Hollywood's most sought-after contemporary directors. Her next directorial project will be the adaptation of Bitter Root, but there are rumors that Regina King is interested in directing a new Superman movie.

In a live interview with foreign media MSNBC, Regina King said that she is considering directing the rebooted version of "Superman" for Warner and DC. There are rumors that Regina King is "competing" for the director of the new version of "Superman" movie with other well-known people such as Barry Jenkins, Ryan Coogler and JD Dillard. Regina King was surprised to hear the news, and he heard it for the first time.

If possible, Regina King will only accept the new version of Superman after she finishes Bitter Root. Earlier, it was reported that the prolific novelist Ta-Nehisi Coates is working with the famous director JJ.Abrams to restart the Superman movie. Unlike the past, this time Superman will be a black man.

The new version of "Superman" is reportedly about the story of Superman "Kal-El" arriving on Earth from Krypton. There is also a new idea being considered that the film will be a "20th century period piece." In addition, the current plan is that the film will exist independently of other DC movies and will not be part of the existing universe.
