As we all well know, the DCEU has a great lineup of movies waiting to be released, one of those following movies will be a sequel for Justice League. 

In an interview with Total Film Magazine, J.K. Simmons was able to confirm that a second Justice league is currently in development ahead of the Novemberelease of the first film.

J.K. Simmons was asked by Total Film about being how pumped he is and what we can expect from him playing Commissioner Gordon in the upcoming Justice League movie, which then sees J.K. Simmons confirming a script for Justice League 2 is underway already:

"Well, Commissioner Gordon wears a trench coat in every scene, so I don't know that the 'pumped up' part is going to be all that evident, especially when you're standing next to Batman! But this is the first Justice League movie - we hope - of a few. They're working on scripts for The Batman and for the next Justice League movie. It introduces my incarnation of Commissioner Gordon. I don't have a lot to do. I feel like I just dipped my toe in the water of who Commissioner Gordon will be."


J.K. Simmons was also asked about what it feels like being the one to switch on the Bat-Signal, to which he responds:

"That's an iconic thing, and obviously there are some very big shoes that I'm attempting to step into. Some really, really wonderful actors have played that part before. It's like all of a sudden everyone in London is doing Hamlet. Now it's my turn to be Gordon."


Justice League is set to release on November 17, 2017 which is directed by Zack Snyder, with the story by Chris Terrio and Zack Snyder, the screenplay by Chris Terrio and Joss Whedon, and stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Ray Fisher as Cyborg, J.K. Simmons as Commissioner Gordon and Willem Dafoe an Atlantean, Nuidis Vulko.

If a green light for Justice has already been made, then DC/WB is led by fools. No sequel has ever been green lit before a film has even premiered. Is one prepared?...yes...is one green lit?...hardly. DC's track record has been shaky at best with only 1 being fan praised (i.e. Wonder Woman)
