Finally, the "Justice League of America" movie gets a bit of good news. Now don't get too excited. We've seen this plenty of times before. Warner Bros. has been back and forth with potential directors and actors and has had difficulty establishing a foundation to bring the Justice League superheroes together. With every step forward, it takes two back. This time, however, things could be different.
With the world premiere of "Man of Steel" right around the corner, director Zack Snyder and writer David S. Goyer are already singing on for a "Man of Steel" sequel. Warner Bros. and DC originally hoped that the superman film would establish a universe fitting for the Justice League movie, and behind all the talk of a "Man of Steel" sequel, it looks like Goyer's involvement with "Justice League of America" has been confimed.
According to Deadline, not only is Warner Bros. fast tracking the "Man of Steel" sequel, but also "Goyer's deal is part of a huge 3-picture deal he signed at Warner Bros. for 'Man of Steel,' the sequel, and Justice League with Superman." It also reported that Nolan won't play as prominent of a role, however Warner Bros. still wants his name on the project, as well as any other additional DC projects.
Not only that, but Kellvin of @Latinoreview also tweeted that he had heard Goyer talking about the Justice League movie while on the red carpet at the "Man of Steel" premiere.
"Did I just hear Goyer say 'JLA' is coming and he's doing it??? What?? He also said he putting The Avengers on alert...MOS Premiere."
Between Kellvin's tweet and Deadline's confirmation, it looks like "Man of Steel" is exactly what Warner Bros. needs to kick start the "Justice League of America" project. If "Man of Steel" does well, which it very well should, then Warner Bros. will have found its missing ingredient. Superman saves the day once again.
