As a fan of John Boorman’s bloody epic Excalibur , TF was interested to see what a modern-day retelling of the King Arthur legend would look like.
“Yeah, unfortunately it is no longer going to happen,” Singer told SFX at the annual Sitges Film Festival. “I was really enthused to do it. I’m a fan of John Boorman’s movie and it was my intention to get it going after Jack The Giant Killer was completed.”

Singer isn't letting the disappointment get to him, mind.
“When that happened, it allowed me to go straight into developing Battlestar Galactica - which I think will be really exciting.”
