People are going to be pissy about how things turned out on Rise of Skywalker (with fairly good reason) but JJ is a good guy to get this off the ground.
The past decade of Superman on the big screen has been dictated by Snyder’s deconstructionist tendencies. But based on the CBMs Marvel churns out on the regular and the general state of the world right now, I think we’re ready for a Superman who isn’t a miserable piece of ****. And the guy who gave us Star Trek ‘09 and The Force Awakens is a damn good choice for that.
But yeah, based on Into Darkness and Rise of Skywalker, he’s gotta turn over the reigns after that first film. Assuming this is even true, of course.
I don’t think TROS is fair to three at him when he was fixing someone else’s mess, I still say had JJ been involved in all 3 films then the trilogy would have been better.
However, I still sort of agree (I actually liked STITD) , I think JJ directing the first but staying on for story & producer for the sequels would be the way to go.
