Uslan secured the rights to make
Batman movies years before Tim Burton, Michael Keaton, and Jack Nicholson dreamed of working together.
And he couldn’t give away the rights to
Will Eisner’s The Spirit.
But his patience and determination paid off. This year, the sixth Batman movie – The Dark Knight – and first Spirit movie will come to a multiplex near you, joining previous Uslan productions such as
Batman, Batman Returns, Batman Forever, Batman and Robin, Batman Begins, Catwoman, Constantine, National Treasure, Swamp Thing – well, you get the idea.
And he’s not one to rest on his laurels, either. Uslan’s current projects in development include
Shazam!, The Shadow, and
Constantine 2.
If you love comic books, and especially movies made from comic books, please welcome Michael Uslan to Mr. Media.
