Superman Vs Batman Is Coming In 2015

“"I want you to remember my hand at your throat. I want you to remember the one man who beat you."

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.

After watching Snyder's Superman I have my doubts...not holding my breath on this one. I doubt it will be on par with The Avengers

For being "official" there sure is a lack of cited sources. I think this would be fun tho, done dark(er) like the recent reboots of these franchises. #BAT:2thumbs:

I enjoyed Man of Steel so I am looking forward to this.

Ditto.

If it was Michael Keaton Vs Christopher Reeve that would be epic and I would pay to see that one.

I couldn't be more excited about this news! I love Batman and Superman's chemistry in the comics so this should make for one great movie. I wish Karl Urban could play the part, although he's probably way to old for the direction they're going in. Joe Manganiello from True Blood I think would be another good option, would be funny considering he was almost superman. Its gotta be someone that can pull off scary, because I see this Batman being very suspicious of superman and they'll probably be at odds a lot in this movie. Especially since a line from The Dark Knight Returns was read during the panel at comic con. Considering Bats will need a way to fight Superman in this flick I'd say Kryptonite will be introduced in this movie as well.

I'll see it but I dint hve my hopes up. Dc wants to be marvel so bad... Marvel did avengers, lets do JLa... Oh wait no one cares about Wonder Woman or aquaman and the Gl movie bombed... Lets do a superman/batman duo movie then... Why kill two potential franchises for 1 movie, and as the article states... Whose batman and why introduce a new batman in another superheroes movie... Dc could fuck up a wet dream.

I wouldn't mind seeing a Wonder Woman movie if done right. The animated movie was quite good.

why wouldn't the logical step be it worked for marvel so lets do it to. Anybody in the right mind over at DC wants these movies to happen.

But you don't want to move your big franchise, and tie it into your second biggest franchise(though superman is 1 out of 2 this generation). If they wanted to do a group movie, they should have done a true JLA movie, used Superman and batman to sell it, and got the other JLA characters the exposure they need. Instead now they're wasting a year making one movie for both characters knstead of 2 separate.

Look at it from a moby POV.. Minimum both characters in a solo film make 300 million apiece... Now put them together, maybe for fanboys you pull on 400 million... Well you just lost 200 million really.

Moby=money

Well with this new 'dark' Superman there's no contrast to Batman thanks to Christopher Nolan and he's obsession with realism. It's going to be two dark, brooding superheroes, one with a ridiculous voice.. I hate the modern take on superheroes, Nolan's take has ruined them now we have to put up with epic boredom. Zombie Christopher Reeve could do a better job. And Michael Keaton still the best Batman (along with Adam West). God, I am so sick of superhero movies.. :myhead:

DC needs to make a justice league out of the characters that have already gotten the live action treatment. Characters film goers are already familiar with...

Steel

Jonah Hex

Catwoman

Green Lantern

Bats

Superman.

We've got a great line up!

Ben Affleck is apparently the new Batman.

"Ben provides an interesting counter-balance to Henry’s Superman. He has the acting chops to create a layered portrayal of a man who is older and wiser than Clark Kent and bears the scars of a seasoned crime fighter, but retain the charm that the world sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne," director Zack Snyder said in a statement.

:suicide:

Directed by “Man of Steel” filmmaker Zack Snyder, the Superman-Batman feature will open worldwide on July 17, 2015, with Henry Cavill, Amy Adams and Diane Lane reprising their roles.

I just saw this

:myhead:

I don't mind Affleck..he's not the greatest actor in the world, but he's not the worst. This role is not for him.

What he said.

Honestly......I'd rather see him reprise Daredevil since I think he a bad rap for that. Batman though.......I just can't see it. I'll say this, there was outrage over Michael Keaton being Batman and look how history turned out. So with tat in mind I'll have a lightly open mind....but still.....

I like Affleck better as a director than an actor :dislike:

if the nerd herd on the internet will allow this a chance (which they will not) it's actually going to work. The guy can do brooding characters very well. He can get buff enough for the role, and he has that super hero chin that's gonna work well in that cowl. Everyone thought Heath Ledger was going to be a terrible Joker but he was great. I will enjoy this.

I honestly think Cavill would be a better Batman and Afflek would be a better Superman. I think the dark and moody Supes was a disappointment, and Aflek plays a better goofy character than he does a dark one.
