Warner Bros. has confirmed their intentions to produce an inevitable Justice League movie sometime in the near future, to be directed [per the binding blood contract signed] by lens-flaring chiaroscuro auteur, Zack Snyder.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Justice League will employ the returning pectoral talents of Henry Cavilll as Superman, alongside first-timers Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot as Batman and Wonder Woman respectively. All three are slated to feature in the May 6th, 2016, sequel to Man of Steel, tentatively presumed and almost now confirmed to be titled Batman vs. Superman.
Justice League – which will have to find newcomers and old hands alike to fill the roles of Cyborg, Aquaman, The Flash and Green Lantern [Ryan Reynolds, Vinnie Chase need not apply] – “will be a further expansion of this universe,” said Warner Bros. president of worldwide production Greg Silverman: “Superman vs Batman will lead into Justice League,” he added without adding further insight.
A script for the comic book amalgam blockbuster is reportedly still in development and is expected to bow long after you’ve stopped caring about comic book adaptations in 2018: “Yeah, I guess.”
