โ€œWhat Iโ€™m working on is in some wayโ€ฆI mean, yes, yes, yes, yes,โ€ the Superman director confirmed when asked if heโ€™s started thinking of a potential sequel. โ€œBut is it a straight-up Superman sequel? I would not say necessarily.โ€
Seems more like he's writing a Superman & Supergirl movie than World's Finest. Both those characters have movies about to release, while we don't even have an actor for Batman yet.

Holy he really is just repeating every single mistake Snyder made with a "family friendly" overcoat.
This is beyond retarded, and out of what little respect for James Gunn I have left, SOMEONE AT WB MUST BE HELLBENT ON MAKING THEIR FANFIC CANON AND LIKED.
It always starts with Superman, then it forces a Batman-Superman sequel. For some reason this retarded nigger does not understand that a Worlds Finest only works with both a year 3 Batman and a year 3+ Superman, so jumping the shark this early ALWAYS backfires.

Neat, Worlds Finest stories are always fun
Will it be a mystery that brings them together or an overt villainous threat like the Joker/Luthor teamup in the cartoon? I liked that comic where they both ended up in an off the path hick town being taken over by a vampire - Batman tracing a murderer and Superman being called in by the local PD - but I doubt that'll be enough for a movie. Hard to say much until this Spuerman movie comes out and we know more about the world and what it'll be like by the end of it
If he (or anyones) is really daring, they'd do a movie based off of the Trinity comic, that'd be a pretty good blockbuster. Ra's Al Ghul befriending/manipulating Bizzaro and attacking Themiscyra after being given directions from a rouge Amazon so he could have an undetectable fortress and an island of warrior women to make his harem, and a quick lil Aquaman cameo at the end

i'm not exactly sure why you're all bitching. We don't need anymore "dark gritty" solo Batman movies for awhile. They're still letting Reeves do his thing, they can't control that he's dealing with personal issues and is being delayed in getting The Batman 2 completed.
It seems like its adding to the delays with Brave and the Bold; they don't want to do a tonal shift with Batman until there's some distance from the Pattinson version.

Batman needs to take a bit of a backseat for awhile. Being a co-star/supporting player in something more family-friendly is a good change of pace.

Gunn is not going to do "must save martha" grimdark retardation. It would be a team-up movie.

it's all speculation but comicbook.com is a shit source

more than likely, it's a superman/supergirl sequel. i think gunn is being patient for reeves for the batman 2 and sees what he has. no need to dilute 2 different batmen. he has a billion other characters to draw from

I think people are just tired of seeing Superman be relegated to co-starring with Batman or other heroes instead of having sequels exploring more stories with other villains like Brainiac, Metallo, Mxy, Bizarro, etc.

I still can't understand what was going through Snyder's head to make his first sequel mostly about Batman and Superman wanting to straight up murder each other for the majority of the movie for their first on-screen meet up.

Don't think so. He's focusing on Lanterns, Supergirl, and Wonder Woman currently. Flash will likely eventually come, but naturally I think WB wants to distance themselves with Ezra's failure. Don't know about Aquaman, Jason is now Lobo.

When they recast Flash I hope they hire Jack Quaid

Funny how there have been constant evidence after evidence that support the notion of Pajeets being huge Snyderfags, but never about Pajeets being huge Gunn fans yet this one anon keeps pushing the notion without anything to back it up.
Most likely just too butthurt that he keeps getting called a "Pajeet" (which is true) for being a Snyderfag and now retaliates by doing the same to anyone looking forward to Gunn's Superman.
