Man of Steel director Zack Snyder will direct the tentpole with Henry Cavill returning as Superman. It is unclear who will play Batman in the new film. A release date of 2015 has been set, with a Flash movie appearing in 2016 and a Justice League movie in 2017.
Snyder's Man of Steel, which rebooted the Superman franchise, has grossed north of $600 million worldwide since it hit theaters this June.

According to two sources with knowledge of the movie, Warner Bros. intends to announce the news at its Comic-Con International panel Saturday morning. Said a Warner Bros. spokesperson, “We don’t comment on rumors regarding these properties.”
“Man of Steel” director Zack Snyder is expected to reunite with screenwriter David S. Goyer and star Henry Cavill for the new film. It’s unlikely Christian Bale will step back into the bat suit, as the actor has indicated publicly that he has moved on from his days as Bruce Wayne.
“Man of Steel” producer and “Dark Knight” trilogy director Christopher Nolan is expected by some to produce the project, but the exact nature of his involvement is unclear.
The move marks the culmination of years of effort on the part of Warner Bros. and DC Comics to bring their superheroes together in a similar fashion to their primary competitor Marvel, which successfully combined its superheroes into a $1.5-billion box-office hit with “The Avengers.”
In the comic world, the two heroes are teaming up in a new series, “Batman/Superman,” by writer Greg Pak and artist Jae Lee.
The dude in red was The Flash. Most think he came from the future or some alternate timeline.
Superman basically knows everything because he can hear everything. They touched on it a bit in Man of Steel but he can see in many different spectrums and hears shit from across the planet. [Reply]

See, if you had not told me he was the Flash I'd still be wondering what it had to do with the anything, thats on the movie... I get that they're doing another that might explain some of these things, but its clunky way to start the new sub-franchise IMO
Kents amazing hearing is something I've maybe kinda forgotten, you're right that it was implied in MOS and probably in the comics read as a kid as well [Reply]

How did Lex figure out, not only who Supes and Batman are, but who Supes mom is?
Why and how is Lex' blood able to recreate Zod as Doomsday? The writers just said **** you figure it out for yourself
Why all of the dream sequences for Batman, they dont move the story forward AT ALL
Who was the guy in red in that one dream screaming "ITS HER!"... was it Robin and why should I care?
Wonder Woman seemed to know exactly who Bruce Wayne is... HOW?
Clark Kent is constantly awol from work, why doesnt he get fired lol?
How did Supes know Batman would be chasing the truck of Kryptonite? and if he knew where Batman was at that exact time, how the hell didnt he know what was in the truck?
I could go on and on and ON... this thing was a freaking mess, a total mess, the writers just slapped shit together with absolutely no explanation for any of it
The only things I have no problems at all with are Affleck or Cavill, they're both fine actors who did their best with the turd of a script they were handed
One can only hope the next offerings are MUCH better
The Flash. He came back from the future to warn Batman about Superman. A little foreshadowing for where thy are headed, I suppose. [Reply]
"Martha?My Mothers name is Martha why did you say Martha?"
"Martha is my mommy they will kill her"
"Whoe your moms name is Martha too?"
"My Martha mom was killed when I was just a little Batboy"
"I will save your Martha and you can save the world from Doomsday and stop Lex Luthor" "I shouldn't have just now about killed you oops if I did no way would have I been able to defeat Doomsday with mortal powers"
"After this we can laugh about it over a beer" [Reply]

Batman went into a minor psychosis and was not mentally straight *not that he isn't already deranged* and you know the whole world about to end was another issue. [Reply]

Lots of fighting between Snyder and the studio
James Wan thinking of leaving the Aquaman movie
Seth Grahame-Smith leaving Flash because the studio got antsy about a newbie helming the movie
I still don't get how a film that's currently sitting at $863M worldwide is considered "underperforming". And I'd bet that the fighting between Snyder and the studio probably goes along the lines of Snyder yelling at them, "If you'd let me make it a longer film like I wanted to, it would've done better..." As for Wan and the other guy, that's just ludicrous. "ONOZ, the last DC movie only made three quarters of a billion dollars worldwide, I'm not sure I want to do this movie for them..." [Reply]
