Now I know this is news from a few weeks back, but I haven't yet reported it so here it is. Warner execs have announced that they are planning to make much more DC Comic films than before. They are said to be going along the lines of what Marvel have been doing with their "Avnegers" films and the stand-alone films for each of the characters in the main film. They announced that the "Justice League" film is back on and it's said that the script is much more dark and mature than Marvel's "Avengers Assemble" script.
"Kick-Ass" creator Mark Millar, gave some news on the script, "A pal
of mine is good friends with the new Justice League screenwriter and
said his take on the team is incredible. Very real-world and not at all
what you might expect. WB has a chequered history with their superhero
characters. They're great with their boy wizards, but less consistent
with their DC stable. But my chum said that this could be a thing
of beauty and has been in the works for a little while now, not just an
Avengers knock-off. Best of luck to them. The tidbits I heard sound
quite dark and mature, which isn't what I expected. But word on Gangster
Squad is great too so I feel this is in really good hands."
There's still no news on when Warner plan to release DC's main event film, but it's still rumored for a 2015 release. Warner, like I said above, plan to have some stand-alone films out before that, like a "Green Lantern 2/Reboot", which is reportedly still starring Ryan Reynolds. The have plans to also finally make a BIG-screen version of female favorite, "Wonder Woman". That film has been in development hell for over 10 years, so hopefully it'll finally see the light of day. The closest updated adaption was the 2011 TV pilot starring Adrianne Palicki.
Warner are also finishing off on another drafted script for "The Flash", which was once rumored to star "Hangover" star, Bradley Cooper. "Aquaman" and "Lobo" are just two other projects being planned right now. Warner plan to have them all released within the next few years, some before the "Justice League" and some after.
The reboot of Nolan's "Batman" franchise is also deffo getting a reboot, so that it can be rebooted to lead up to the "Justice League" film. The next "Batman" reboot is under the working title of "The Batman" with Nolan and his wife staying on as producers. There's no news on wether on not Henry Cavill's Superman will make an appearance in the "Justice League" or if that Superman will just have his own universe and Warner will have a "Justice League" Superman being played by a completely different actor all together. I guess like everything else.............we'll just have to wait and see. But I do know that Warner are going ahead with a "Man Of Steel 2" with Cavill, though not sure if director Zach Snyder will be back of not.
