Over the weekend came the exciting news that in summer 2015 Batman and Superman will team up on the big screen for the first time (at least in live-action terms, as they’ll both appear in the upcoming animated The Lego Movie).
However there was no news on what the movie will be called, but writer David S. Goyer has now stepped to give us the likely titles. He said, “So over in Hall H at the Warner Bros. – I guess most people know now – at the end of the Warner Bros. panel, Zack (Snyder) came out and he brought Harry Lennix, who plays General Swanwick in Man of Steel and Harry read a bit from [The Dark Knight Returns]. So the next film we’re making, we’re already in pre-production, comes out in summer of 2015 and we’re actually not sure whether the title is Superman vs. Batman or Batman vs. Superman but yes, that rematch, that combination, the two guys onscreen and that’s happening.”
ComicBookMovie.com confirmed that Warner Bros. has registered both BatmanVsSupermanMovie.com, and not SupermanVsBatmanMovie.com.
Henry Cavill will return as Superman, although there’s no news on who will be Batman. Zack Synder will direct with Goyer writing.
