Doug Jones Updates on SILVER SURVER

A hot topic that came out of the San Diego Comic Con 2007 event was a possible SILVER SURFER spin-off franchise on the near horizon. It seemed that Fox executives were excited about the possibility of adapting a SS movie outside seperate from the FF franchise. A writer was brought on board by the studio and that was the last we've heard on the subject. While talking to Superhero Hype, Doug Jones has echoed that silence, indicating he hasn't heard from anyone involved in the project. He also indicated he would like to voice the character in the next film.

"I know as much as you do about that; I wish I knew more," he answered. "I suppose they have a writer hired who's been talking about it at Comic-Con, so that's how I heard about him. As far as the timing goes, don't know. As far as whether they're going to come back for me again, I'm contracted for two more, whether they exercise that contract is up to them. I would like to..."

And as far as providing his own voice for the character in future films after having the voice dubbed by Laurence Fishburne? "I would like the opportunity," he responded.
