The fact this is kicking off their big cinematic universe (sure, Man of Steel came first, but this is the one that's really setting everything up) is a HUGE red flag for what's to come. Snyder being on Justice League concerns me a fair bit, and I really think DC would do well to just drop him. That being said, I am beyond excited for Affleck to do his own thing in the Batman solo films. EDIT: So, they set up Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash, Cyborg, and Aquaman for the Justice League movie. That's six, but didn't they have a "Unite The Seven" thing going on last year? Who's the seventh? Lantern?
From what I know, it's Lantern. The DCEU is using the New 52 version of JL, so they swapped Martian Manhunter with Cyborg, which is weird because I'm used to Cyborg in Teen Titans.
From what they've said, it seems Green Lantern will be introduced in Justice League Part Two, and then get his own film in 2020 or whatever. But, after seeing BvS, you aren't going to catch me seeing the Justice League films. Not as long as they're still being directed by Zack Snyder.
That would be awesome. He should just take over the universe. His character, his writing, and his directing.
Hans Zimmer has officially retired from composing superhero movies. http://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-35925151
His best work is always outside of superhero films anyway. As long as he continues to collaborate with Christopher Nolan (like be is on Nolan's upcoming WWII film), I'm okay with this.
http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/ari-emanuel-patrick-whitesell-unleashed-879003 In an interview with Patrick Whitesell, co-CEO of WME, Ben Affleck is confirmed to have written a script for the solo Batman movie and that he is contracted up to be in Justice League Part 1 and 2. I REAAAAAAAAALLY want a Ben Affleck directed Batman film. He was a big highlight in BvS.
New Suicide squad trailer!!! [video=youtube;MZwsbcW-d-E]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZwsbcW-d-E[/video] Looks like a lot of fun!!!
Ben Affleck has been officially announced to be directing his Batman solo filn. http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/04...tarring-and-directed-by-ben-affleck-confirmed FUCK YES
Hope it is, and maybe adapt Under the Red Hood for the sequel (as a sequel to BvS), but I don't think it's necessary. That story was told rather recently.
Seth Grahame-Smith, who was set to direct The Flash, has left the project due to "creative differences." There's also a rumor that James Wan has left Aquaman. http://variety.com/2016/film/news/the-flash-movie-loses-director-over-creative-differences-1201763814/ http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/04/29/aquaman-rumor-james-wan-may-be-next-dc-director-to-exit Can't say I blame them, given the direction the DCEU is headed.
