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 new Bat suit is going to have a similar Arkham video game look.

Well, look at it this way Superman fans... You'll get another reboot in 6 years or so.

Bizarre casting. I dont see it? But who knows? He almost always plays geeky types.

He was also Zuckerberg in The Social Network and was solid in Adventureland.

Snyder casting decisions have been nothing but bizarre, plus we now have a billion characters to cover in 120 minutes.

More and more this looks like it's going to be a Spiderman 3/Sucker Punch type of a disaster.

That curly haired douche? As Lex Fucking Luther?

Man, they're doing everything they can to encourage me to avoid this movie....

I think it's how small he is, he's so tiny he can have skim milk drinking contests with Wonder Woman. I see Lex Luthor as more imposing physically, not only that but how nasally his voice is... Yeah I don't see it either.

As a huge Batman fanboy, I was really holding out hope that this wouldn't suck.

My hopes are dimished as of this moment.

Batman and Supes gon suck I bet... keep the two worlds separate.

Avengers is one thing, but I don't like mixing those two.

Their intentions were noble, going for the whole Dark Knight Returns angle.

But Affleck and Einsenburg? C'mon Man.

I don't think this is nearly as strange as the Affleck decision. I think some of that is seeping into today's apparent internet outrage.

I don't mind Affleck, but it does feel like WB shoehorned him in because he's their "go to" guy at the moment. They wanted him to direct a Justice league movie a few years ago.

With these kinds of casting decisions I've learned to just wait and see, I've been too surprised by people in the past to write it off until I see it.

But I will say that Affleck seems like a MUCH better fit for his role than than Jesse.

I really don't give a shit who Snyder casts for which part. So long as he is directing this is going to be a big shiny turd. Nothing more.
