Contrary to our previous report that Star Trek screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman would be producing an adaptation of Doc Savage written by Lethal Weapon and Kiss Kiss Bang Bang's Shane Black, it looks like Neil Moritz and Ori Marmur (The Green Hornet) are producing it instead.
AICN originally named Orci and Kurtzman as the producers, while Collider pointed out the error, maintaining that the rest of the original report is true. Doc Savage will be penned by Black, who may direct, and the movie will take place in the 1930s instead of being updated for modern times.
Whoever produces Doc Savage, we can't wait to see the pulp world's first physician/surgeon/scientist/adventurer/inventor/explorer/researcher/musician in a better movie than 1975's camp classic Doc Savage: The Man of Bronze.
