Exactly 5 years after this project was shelved, comes this BIG news!
Zack Snyder to Direct ‘Justice League’ Movie
To follow ' Batman/Superman' in 2018
Quote:
Warner Bros. says it is going to try again to create a big-screen version of Justice League, the long-demanded, occasionally attempted team-up between Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and other iconic DC superheroes.
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, the studio’s production president Greg Silverman confirmed that Zack Snyder would follow-up his 2016 Batman/Superman movie with this one, delivering Justice League to theaters sometime in 2018.
“It will be a further expansion of this universe,” Silverman told reporter Ben Fritz. “Superman vs Batman will lead into Justice League.”
Silverman would not tell the Wall Street Journal which heroes would be in the film, or how they planned to handle characters such as Green Lantern, who was played by Ryan Reynolds in a 2011 underperformer that has few admirers and disappointed badly enough to not get a sequel.
The studio previously tried to mount a Justice League film, with DJ Corona as Superman and Armie Hammer as Batman, but scrapped the plan in 2008 when a writers strike and expected actors strike derailed the project. It would have been directed by Mad Max filmmaker George Miller.
