James Wan is finally done with ‘Aquaman’ and already has a couple of projects lined up. It’s already been announced that he is adapting “The Call of Cthulhu,” based on the 1928 H.P. Lovecraft short story of the same name. However, Wan has seemingly lined up another film as his potential next project.

Daniel Richtman is reporting that Wan is set to direct “Creature From the Black Lagoon” for Universal. This is a remake of the 1954 classic which tackled a strange prehistoric beast lurking in the depths of the Amazonian jungle and the group of scientists who try to capture the animal to bring it back to civilization for study.

    And the upcoming wolfman? Didn’t benicio del toro already do one? And I know the mummy with Tom cruise didn’t do well, but is that included also? Their constant attempts at a dark universe are just sad at this point.

      I believe Ryan Gosling is doing it and it’s already in the can. I could be wrong.
