Henry Cavill‘s Superman will fly solo again in a sequel to “Man of Steel” going into active development at Warner Bros., a person familiar with the project told TheWrap.

Despite Superman’s battle with Batman, DC has been silent on a sequel to “Man of Steel” featuring Superman solo, leading many frustrated fanboys to believe that another film wasn’t going to happen. But a person close to the project told TheWrap that Superman is a top priority for the studio and getting the character right for audiences is of tantamount importance.

 

[Mammoth Jones]

I will watch it.

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

now wait until near the end of the production to plant the tomato this time

 

[BocoDragon]

You'd expect so, if this DCCU is still happening.

 

[bananafactory]

getting the character right for audiences is of tantamount importance.

The fact they are acknowledging they haven't got the character right yet is encouraging to me.

So we finally get real Superman and not the broody Supes we have now?

Well at least he smiles in the Justice League pic, that's progress I guess.

 

[BumRush]

I feel like I'm one of the select few people that loved MoS. It's got its fair share of problems but I genuinely don't get the hatred

 

[Tucah]

makes sense to make a proper sequel to their most well received DCCU movie

 

[Finaika]

YES!

 

[DeathyBoy]

Just have him smile this time.

Also Brainiac please.

I feel like I'm one of the select few people that loved MoS. It's got its fair share of problems but I genuinely don't get the hatred

Not a huge fan of it, but I like Cavill and holy shot did they nail Kryptonian God tier power. With a new writer and director and Eisenberg Luthor bah gawd

 

[JCX]

The more DCCU films I see, the more I realize Superman is the issue. Also makes me appreciate MCU Cap more, since both characters are so easy to get wrong.

 

[bud]

the big question is: will cavill still have hair by then?

 

[The_Dama]

The first one was one of the worst movies i have ever seen

 

[tribal24]

No thanks WB , After that wreck Suicide Squad i will not watch anything DC.

 

[bananafactory]

The first one was one of the worst movies i have ever seen

You must not watch many movies. I say that as someone who really doesn't like MoS

 

[Ninjimbo]

Good timing..I want Snyder to helm it, but I know he won't. Dude needs a break from superhero shit.

 

[Sectorseven]

Maybe they could cross him over with the Godzilla sequel, that'd be cool.

 

[inm8num2]

Win the Superman crowd and you will win your cinematic universe.

Fuck the haters. I loved Man of Steel. It solved all the problems I had with Superman Returns. Just Clarke stalking Lois for three hours. No fights. He lifts something.

MoS had great action. Felt like Superman.

 

[8bit]

Is it Woman of Kleenex?

 

[inky]

Isn't he dead? #NoSteaks

Spoiler

(mmm steak)

 

[sfedai0]

Cavill shoud be bald by then. Bald Superman will be a sight to behold.

 

[DeathyBoy]

People on Gaf have no idea how bad cinema actually gets

 

[Blade30]

Wasn't there a really good director interested in doing a Man of Steel sequel? I'm sure I heard something about that.

 

[HStallion]

Hopefully they retcon Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. That was a complete misfire.

 

[Dcube]

Hell yeah, the first one had some of the coolest action I've ever seen, more of that please.

 

[HeartlessNobody213]

I'm guessing it might end up being the untitled 2019 film. Despite the issues I had with the film, I actually enjoyed MOS and was looking forward to an improved sequel. Never was a fan of BVS being right after it.

 

[JABEE]

Man of Steel was not good.

I feel like they should have went in a different direction.

It made tons of money, so what do I know.

 

[SuperDowns]

Fire Zach Snyder and maybe I'll watch something from the DCU.

 

[Mammoth Jones]

So we finally get real Superman and not the broody Supes we have now? Well at least he smiles in the Justice League pic, that's progress I guess.

Um, he's not smiling here...

 

[Common Knowledge]

That's smiling?

 

[BobTheFork]

Expect tone changes and re-shoots by next week.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

BvS being so shitty retroactively made me appreciate MoS more than I ever did. (which isn't saying much)

 

[Blade30]

Um, he's not smiling here...

That's smiling?

That's the broody Superman. The smiling one is in OPs post, well smirking.

 

[What did he mean by this?]

Happy Birthday, Kryptonian!

I give you...Zack Snyder!

 

[Lamel]

As long as he stops frowning and brooding for the love of god.

 

[sems4arsenal]

Can we have a Solo SUpes and Solo Bats movie during the same year? 2018?

 

[-Plasma Reus-]

Change his costume please.

 

[SENPAIatLARGE]

Hopefully he doesn't accidentally 9/11 Metropolis in a fight with a supervillain again. I just want to feel inspired by a hero

 

[Atomic Odin]

Fuck the haters. I loved Man of Steel. It solved all the problems I had with Superman Returns.

Tell that to Zod's snapped neck.

Spoiler

AM I doing this right?

 

[rrc1594]

You guys killed Jimmy tho

 

[Kid Heart]

Cool. I'm hoping Braniac is the villain this time. I still can't believe that after 6 Superman movies we haven't had him even once.

 

[OnPoint]

Get Snyder away from him if you want to have any chance at success.

 

[Ahasverus]

YES YES YES YES OH MY GOD HOLD ME YEEEEESS

 

[Dash_Riprock]

If Snyder is involved in any way, shape, or form, then lmfao.


Doesn't WB have to make a new Supes movie every certain amount of years to keep the rights?

 

[atr0cious]

I feel like I'm one of the select few people that loved MoS. It's got its fair share of problems but I genuinely don't get the hatred

The movie rules, don't worry. This forum talks about it more than the rest of the MCU, so don't mistake the hate for unimportance.

Only thing I want is Snyder back on the sequel, to do what he wanted from the beginning.

Clark Kent puts on bluetooth headphones and walks down the street.

Montage

 

[Glory Fades]

Well, he is my favorite character in all of comics, and I really liked MOS, so I am in day one.

 

[AlteredBeast]

Hopefully they retcon Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor. That was a complete misfire.

He is Lex Luthor...
