from Sci-Fi Wire

Bryan Singer told fans at Comic-Con International in San Diego July 22 that he intends to direct a sequel to Superman Returns for 2009. "I haven't concluded a deal to do it yet, which is always iffy," Singer told a crowd of several hundred fans. "But my intention is to do it. My intention is to do it for 2009. And it would be sort of like, where this one sort of introduced the characters and the universe to some degree, which required some measure of reintroduction, because it had been several years since it had been around, this one, the next one, enables me to get all Wrath of Khan on it," a reference to the second Star Trek film.

Singer also brought a surprise guest with him: Richard Donner, the director of the original 1978 Superman film, who screened rare outtake footage from Superman II, featuring Margot Kidder and Christopher Reeve. Singer also showed fans a blooper reel from Superman Returns.
