WooHoo, Justice League Plans Confirmed - Zack Snyder To Direct After Man Of Steel 2

For all those of you who expected that the Man Of Steel Sequel will eventually lead to the Justice League Movie, well your hope has come true. 

The Wall Street Journal officially revealed that Man of Steel and Batman vs. Superman director Zack Snyder will be behind the camera, confirming the rumor that first surfaced just over a year ago, and sticking with the DC Comics universe building that we've been hearing about endlessly. President of production at Warner Bros. Pictures, Greg Silverman, announced the news today saying, "It will be a further expansion of this universe. Superman vs Batman will lead into Justice League.”

The studio isn't setting a release date yet, but the paper notes that the movie isn't likely to hit theaters until2018 at the earliest. After all, Batman vs. Superman isn't slated to arrive until May of 2016 now (against Marvel's Captain America 3 if the calendar remains unchanged), so that makes perfect sense. However, there are rumblings that the sequels will be shot back-to-back, and Justice League could arrive as early as2017 with an announcement at Comic-Con this summer. Maybe that's the real reason Warner Bros. decided to push back the Man of Steel 2 release date to 2016.

Either way, we've all assumed that the next DC Entertainment sequel would be leading to a Justice Leaguemovie, it was just a matter of when. After all, Gal Gadot is already slated to appear as Wonder Woman with Batman and Superman in the gestating Man of Steel sequel, and the character Cyborg just entered the mix last week too. Does this mean we'll get cameos from The Flash, Green Lantern or Aquaman as well? That remains to be seen since the announcement is just now official, so we've got plenty of time to figure that out down the road. Happy to have Zack Snyder directing Justice League?

'Man Of Steel' Sequel Finds Its Cyborg

Woohoo, its certain that for now the new Man of Steel sequel is setting up things for the first Justice League movie which will be huge whenever it comes out.

The "Man of Steel" sequel just took another major step toward setting up an eventual Justice League of America film.

According to Variety, Ray Fisher, a noted theater actor, has been tapped for the role of Victor Stone or Cyborg, the half-man, half-machine superhero who started off as a member of the Teen Titans before graduating to the JLA.

Warner Bros. and DC Comics conducted screen tests over the past couple of weeks before landing on Fisher, who is most widely known for playing Muhammad Ali in the Broadway play "Fetch Clay, Make Man" and for his recent testing for J.J. Abrams' upcoming "Star Wars: Episode VII."

While Cyborg's role will be small, he'll become a more significant character as the studio develops more films for the Justice League universe. Cyborg's casting may be also be a sign that DC Comics paid attention to the successful integration of The Falcon, another African-American superhero, to Marvel's recent blockbuster, Captain America 2: The Winter Soldier.

"I think he would create an incredible bridge between superheroes and humanity," Cavill said of the Cyborg character in bonus feature on the recent "Man of Steel" home video release.

Fisher joins a cast that already includes Henry Cavill (Superman), Ben Affleck (Batman), Jesse Eisenberg (Lex Luthor), Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman) and Amy Adams (Lois Lane).

Zack Snyder is returning as director for the production, which is currently already under way in Michigan.
