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.

We talking Nu52 here? If so, I don't even consider any of that garbage to be canon and apparently DC isn't too keen on it either :-)
Deathstroke in my mind is the Teen Titan nemesis
Speaking of, I just watched Young Justice on Netflix recently. It's only 2 seasons, which kinda baffles me, because it is really really good. Especially the first season. I typically hate sidekicks & incorporating teen heroes, which just seems forced.
Definitely worth watching. Still not sure why they cancelled the show? [Reply]

Basically, it had the wrong audience and lack of toy support. Teenagers and older enjoyed it a lot.
It was fantastically written and respected its audience to remember plotlines. There are rumors that Netflix will be doing season 3. [Reply]

Toy sales ran the budget I believe. There is renew yj and keep binging young justice hashtags on Twitter to help people keep watching so Netflix goes with season 3. I've watched s1&2 twice already. Gotta keep it trending and Netflix will pick it up. Great show. There are rumors they are interested.
