That line, one of the best moments in Frank Miller’s seminal, genre-changing The Dark Knight Returns, is what Zack Snyder used to announce his next movie: a film that has both Superman and Batman. The film is untitled, is currently dated for summer 2015 and that’s all we know.
Snyder was quick to say that the quote didn’t mean they were adapting TDKR; rather it informs what this movie will be. So expect Batman and Superman to be at odds, and duking it out. We have to assume this is how Kryptonite is introduced into the rebooted Superman movie universe, that Bruce Wayne finds it.
What will the film be called? It can’t be Man of Steel 2. I’d love it if they went old school and called it World’s Finest, but that might be too square for the new, darker Superman.
The other question is who will be Batman? They’re going into production next year according to Warner Bros, so they’re going to have to find their new Batman quite quickly. Will they attempt to tie it into the Nolan films? Is this a Batman reboot? We’ll know more soon. |
Ya, I read about how they want to establish Batman's genius and ability to take on guys with superpowers so its not so unbelievable when facing villains in the Justice League movie, and figure squaring off against Superman is a way to establish this and reset the character away from how he was treated by Nolan- more grounded in a realistic world- no villains like mr. Freeze or poison ivy that had over the top powers.
Also, rumored that the Batman character will bypass the origin background story and possibly be called back into service after hanging it up and in his mid-30's.
We shall see. ..
