From ComingSoon.net:
"A judge on Wednesday ruled that the family of Superman's co-creator, Jerry Siegel, has 'successfully recaptured' rights to additional works, including the first two weeks of the daily Superman newspaper comic-strips, as well as portions of early Action Comics and Superman comic-books. The trade explains:
The ruling is based on the court's finding that these were not 'works-made-for-hire' under the Copyright Act.
This means the Siegels -- repped by Marc Toberoff of Toberoff & Associates -- now control depictions of Superman's origins from the planet Krypton, his parents Jor-El and Lara, Superman as the infant Kal-El, the launching of the infant Superman into space by his parents as Krypton explodes and his landing on Earth in a fiery crash.
The article again mentioned that the studio and DC will have to start production by 2011 if they want to make a new Superman or Justice League movie."
