Matthew Vaughn Will Not Direct The Next Superman

X-Men: First Class and Kingsman director Matthew Vaughn is no longer attached to Man of Steel, the filmmaker confirmed during a new interview. Vaughn, one of the most in-demand filmmakers in Hollywood after Kingsman, had long been rumored for a potential follow-up to Zack Snyder's movie, which gave Superman a brooding new origin and launched the DC movie universe back in 2013, but there had never been official confirmation that he was.
