SDCC '13: Supes & Bats Team Up For MOS 2

The chatter from earlier today has now been made official--Superman and Batman will team up for their first big screen adventure. Warner Bros made the announcement at their Comic-Con panel.

"Man of Steel 2" will see the return of Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent, while Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane are set to reprise their roles as Lois Lane, Perry White and Martha Kent. Batman has not yet been cast.

"Man Of Steel" director Zack Snyder and writer David S. Goyer will also be back--as will Christopher Nolan to executive produce the film

"I'm so excited to begin working again with Henry Cavill in the world we created, and I can't wait to expand the DC Universe in this next chapter," Snyder said in a statement. "Let's face it, it's beyond mythological to have Superman and our new Batman facing off, since they are the greatest Super Heroes in the world."

The film is planned for release in 2015. Sources told THR that a tentative plan has also been made for a  Flash  movie in 2016 and "Justice League" by 2017.


Given the tone issues I had with MOS--Will both heroes go dark here in the ultimate quest for realism?
