Magneto Prequel Next Year? Sure.
For all the ball-sucking nerds of the Internet give Christopher Nolan for Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, they seem to revel in shitting on David Goyer. They do realize he played a big hand in the writing scheme of things for both films (as well as the eventual third installment), right? Nolan has said so much himself.
In the meantime, Goyer also throws his hat in the directing arena from time-to-time resulting in such classic-clunkers like Blade: Trinity and The Unborn. So what's up with Magneto? You remember, that other X-Men Origins film Goyer is attached to direct.
He gives an "update" to MTV saying that the studio is "still thinking about doing it" and that he's "sure that project will move forward in the next year or so." Not to sound like a dick to Goyer (because I like the guy), but who seriously thinks this is going to happen at this point? Anyone...?
Wolverine was still able to churn out a profit despite being a box-office under-performer and its across-the-board God-awful reception. Hence them still moving forward with a sequel indicated by the hiring of Chris McQuarrie. The other X-Men spin-offs remain in the "We'll think about it" phase. That in itself isn't good (at all) for Magento since it was first announced along side Wolverine a few years back and yet still no movement. That speaks for itself, folks.
