Ta-Nehisi Coates is a prolific and much admired writer. While he?s likely best known as an essayist and journalist, he also dabbles in comics, having written both a Black Panther and Captain America series for Marvel. Now, he?s reported to be turning his focus to the Man of Steel, and will write a script for an upcoming Superman film to be produced by J.J. Abrams.

We?re intrigued, and look forward to seeing what kind of spin Coates puts on the classic character.
