Also in this special Comic-Con edition of the Friday Broadsheet: Posters for The Raven and Haywire... Dredd gets a release date... Hugh Jackman sneaks Wolverine baddie... and more ahead.

· And you thought Robert Rodriguez was the only person at Comic-Con making promises about long gestating projects. Via press release, Relativity Media announced that it is moving forward with a live-action adaptation of the 1984 animated series Voltron: Defender of the Universe. Atlas Entertainment's Charles Roven (The Dark Knight) and Richard Suckle will produce with a script from Thomas Dean Donnelly (Conan the Barbarian) and Joshua Oppenheimer (Sahara). Somewhere in the deep recesses of your memory, there's a six-year-old positively beaming over this news. [Press Release]

· Speaking of Relativity Media, the company has released posters for both Steven Soderbergh's Haywire and The Raven with John Cusack. Note to the marketing gurus behind that disappointing first poster for Contagion: THIS is how you sell a Soderbergh movie. Click for bigger.

· Lionsgate continues slotting highly anticipated geek properties on the calendar. The studio has set Dredd -- the Judge Dredd reboot with Karl Urban in the titular role -- for Sept. 21, 2012. [Deadline]

· Speaking with fans during a Real Steel event at Comic-Con on Thursday, Hugh Jackman revealed that the villain in the upcoming James Mangold-directed Marvel sequel The Wolverine will be Silver Samurai. For those who aren't versed in the ways of Mr. Silver, here's some notable information from the always reliable Wikipedia. [Coming Soon]

· Mike Judge is at Comic-Con with the upcoming MTV reboot of Beavis and Butt-Head, but that doesn't mean he can't wax poetic about the status of an Office Space sequel. "At one point I could have been talked into it. Not anymore," he said. "When the British version of The Office came along and U.S. version, there's been so much in that world. When I saw it at 10-year anniversary, [I liked it] but it also made me feel like I shouldn't go back to that. I wouldn't want to see sequel to The Big Lebowski -- not that I'm trying to compare the two, but it's one of those movies I can watch again and again." [EW]

· While you were sleeping, Cowboys & Aliens director Jon Favreau played DJ at a Comic-Con party hosted by Latino Review. Forget it, Jake. It's Comic-Con. [@Movieline]
