Horror icon James Wan is apparently being courted by WB/DC to make a superhero movie for them. It is possible that the film could be Shazam! or it could be Wonder Woman. New Line CCO hinted at the possibility in this statement. "New Line has always been a big believer in great filmmakers emerging from the horror genre, and he has the potential to grow like Frank Darabont did, from writing A Nightmare On Elm Street 3 to writing and directing The Shawshank Redemption. James will make an important movie for New Line and Warner Bros or DC, and that is definitely part of the plan, and a reason for bringing him into the family. He’s the only overall director with a deal here, because we see him as a class of one." What do you think he might direct?
