    Next Superman Film to be called 'Kal-El'?

    The fact that I came across this little tidbit this morning and just came home from work and not one other website picked up on it is beyond me.  Anyway, in this story circulating the net regarding the title of the next James Bond film (possibly Red Sky At Night), everyone has failed to notice the other title that caught my eye but apparently no one else:

    Im close friends with an art director in the film industry, i wont mention his name but he has worked closely with production designer Michael Carlin and is about to start work in Canada on Kal-El, the next Superman movie.

    Now I know what you're thinking, bullshit right?  Well look at the facts for a second.  The new Superman movie is yet without an official title, it's been heavily rumored to be filming in Canada, the production designer mentioned is an actual Hollywood name, and we've consistently heard that this new film will be about the in-between of Clark Kent and Superman, Kal-El

    Take this for what it's worth, but I think I've found something here.

    If this story has some legs then "Kal-El" is most likely the production code name similar to what "Red Sun" was for Superman Returns.or "Rory's First Kiss" was for The Dark Knight.

    ^That's exactly what I was thinking, that this is likely a production title. Who knows, maybe it will make the jump to official title. It's possible I suppose, but I highly doubt that the general public is familiar enough with Supe's Kryptonian name for that title to really be marketable.

    I agree..I seriously doubt it would be the films final title..I'm looking for it to be called MOS. ( at least i hope)

    If any thing it is probably just code name/shooting title they will be using.

    Worst code-name ever for a Superman film...

    Sure for fans it would be. But to non fans/general folks wouldn't give it two thoughts probably.
