SDCC '13: Warner Bros. Expected To Announce BATMAN/SUPERMAN Movie For 2015 Release!
This is incredibly exciting news: Warner Bros. is expected to announce its Man Of Steel follow-up at SDCC today, which will see Superman team up with Batman. Director Zack Snyder and screenwriter David S. Goyer are expected to reunite with star Henry Cavill for the feature.
Despite rumors of Justice League and even a Batman reboot being scheduled for 2015, it appears that Warner Bros. is going another route for that year. According to Hero Complex, the Man Of Steel follow-up will be a Batman/Superman team-up movie. WB is expected to announce this at its San Diego Comic-Con panel today. Man Of Steel director Zack Snyder and screenwriter David S. Goyer are returning, as well as (of course) star Henry Cavill. Christopher Nolan (producer of Man Of Steel and director of The Dark Knight Trilogy) may produce, but his exact involvement is unknown. However, as previously confirmed, don't expect Christian Bale to return as Batman. 2015 is already packed with blockbusters, with The Avengers 2, Star Wars: Episode VII, Jurassic Park 4, Ant-Man, a Terminator reboot and more expected to be released that year. However, Batman/Superman will hopefully stand out as it continues to finally create a DC Cinematic Universe.
