Singer's Superman: Working Title, New Script?

There's word that Bryan Singer's Superman film has a working title and may be throwing out J.J. Abrams' widely disparaged script.

The working title for the new Superman movie, directed by X-Men alum Bryan Singer, is reportedly "Superman: Unbelievable"
(much like Batman Begins' working title was The Intimidation Game to throw off Hollywood snoops), according to Superman V.

Ex-X-Men production designer Guy Dyas is joining Singer on the film, replacing Owen Paterson. Costume designer Kym Barrett also left the project and that may not be the end of changes to the film.

Apparently the script being used to audition actors for the lead role isn't J.J. Abrams' "Let's make Luthor an FBI agent, Jimmy Olsen gay and have Krypton survive" script or the new one being penned by Dan Harris and Michael Dougherty. Instead, actors are being asked to read from 1978's original Superman script, according to IGN Filmforce.
