Super
Rainn Wilson, Ellen Page and Liv Tyler are set to star in "Super," a comedy that takes aim at the superhero genre.
James Gunn wrote and will direct, with production set for December.
Pic will be produced by Ted Hope, through his Gotham-based This Is That banner.
Wilson, who last worked with Page in "Juno," plays an average guy who takes on the pseudo-superhero alter ego of the Crimson Bolt, after watching his wife (Tyler) fall under the spell of a charming drug dealer. Lacking super powers, he compensates by swinging a trusty wrench.
Gunn scripted "Dawn of the Dead" and two "Scooby-Doo" films, and made his feature directing debut with the 2006 comic horror film "Slither."
