WTF Happened to Bryan Singer?

Before his career came crashing down, Bryan Singer was one of the most successful directors in Hollywood. Having risen through the ranks thanks to his early indie work, Singer was one of the first big directors to emerge from the Sundance Film Festival. His first movie, Public Access, won the Grand Jury Prize, and his follow-up, The Usual Suspects, became a smash hit that made Kevin Spacey a household name. After making an underrated Stephen King adaptation, Apt Pupil, Singer directed 2000’s X-Men. This was arguably the first true Marvel superhero movie and a noted detour from how comic book movies were usually filmed because Singer took the material seriously. The follow-up, X2: X-Men United, was an even bigger smash and helped make Hugh Jackman, who was plucked from obscurity to play Wolverine, one of the biggest stars of his era.
But, behind the scenes, there was a lot of drama surrounding Singer. It began with a 1997 lawsuit where Singer while making Apt Pupil, was accused of forcing minors to shower nude for his film. The lawsuit was never major news in that era, long before #MeToo and Singer’s career continued. Still, whispers always seemed to follow him, even as he churned out Superman Returns and his massive return to the X-Men franchise, X-Men: Days of Future Past. But, in the middle of shooting his Queen biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody (ironically his biggest hit), allegations about Singer’s conduct finally caught up with him, and he was unexpectedly fired from the film with only two weeks left to shoot (he would keep his directorial credit).
Since then, Singer has laid low, with his proposed return to directing on Millenium’s Red Sonja reboot cancelled after an outcry. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity, we dig into the allegations against Singer and where the former A-list director is now.
Should we separate the artist and the art? Let us know in the comments!

I once met a photographer who allegedly worked with Bryan Singer. He totally revered Singer and spoke about being “occasionally” part of Singer’s circle, which didn’t surprise me since the majority of his models were young males, and worked closely with questionable modeling agencies in San Francisco. And when I think back on this photographer, he was pretty creepy, too.

I have to be honest here:, anyone in Hollywood from the mid-90s on knew about Bryan‘s parties. I didn’t know the details because I’m not gay, and was far too old for him being in my 30s but it was common knowledge that it was pretty wild. I didn’t know about really bad things happening because this sort of thing is pretty common in Hollywood. If you’re powerful, young and successful, the line forms on the left. The “Me Too” movement has changed more than I would’ve believed, but tha said, there is no shortage of young lies men and women willing to do anything to get ahead, and plenty of ipeople willing to except their generosity.

It sounds more like Singer was a mediocre movie-maker who got lucky w/ the ppl associated w/ his projects. The X-Men movies alone should've been billion-dollar blockbusters--at least the 2nd and after (hopefully the MCU will finally give them the justice they so deserve--because they managed to make the mostly mediocre Avengers mega-hit movies). And of course the legendary Superman IP definitely should've made much much more. But after beholding the boring movie, I can see why it basically flopped. It's sad that Singer will be known more for all the allegations surrounding him than his actual movie-making (which was mostly mediocre).

Let's be real, as far as the superhero craze goes, the best you can really say about those X-Men films is that they didn't f*ck it up. The movies weren't amazing, they weren't terrible, just decent. Blade was the first movie lit the spark. Spiderman 2 was the first movie that got the big cgi action scenes right. Avengers 1 finally showed us the team aspect at it's peak. Bryan Singer's X-Men just kept the ball rolling well enough to keep the dream alive. As for his alleged heinous acts, if the industry or the fans cared half as much as they say, he should've been blacklisted a long time ago. Unfortunately, his movies were successful enough that, like James Gunn, he was allowed to keep doing his thing anyway.

I believe it was James and Maso of Mr. Sunday Movies that said the problem with the early 2000s superhero movies was that they had no idea what would work and what wouldn't, so they just crammed 30+ years of stories into like 6 hours of film. It's why the Spider-Man movies pre-MCU Spider-Man are so relentlessly miserable considering that in the comics Spider-Man is a very happy-go-lucky character who experiences a tragedy once every ten years or so. But when they want to cover all the big stories at once, they wind up cramming 30 years of tragedy into 3 movies, and it does the nature of the character a disservice. X-Men 3 has the same problem.

You remind me of why I like Kevin Spacey. Dude is great on film. But is a train wreck in life.

@@rachelblake2350 but also because Avi Arad makes movies only as an excuse for him to sell toys He didn't care how bad the story was, or how messy the production is Same thing happened with TASM2 and Morbius
