David S. Goyer Signs on to Direct ‘Count of Monte Cristo’

David S. Goyer has had an impressive impact upon mainstream cinema in recent years. Not only did he co-write all three films in Christopher Nolan’s Dark Knight trilogy, he also has sole writing credit for this summer’s most anticipated comic book movie, Man of Steel, and is also on the writing team for Legendary Films’ Godzilla remake.

His reputation as a director is a little lacking in comparison to his reputation as a writer, since he hasn’t directed a feature since the best-forgotten 2009 horror film The Unborn; however, Goyer’s recently been warming up to directing again with his new TV series, Da Vinci’s Demons, which premieres on Starz next month.
