The Man Of Steel sequel tentatively titled Batman Vs. Superman isn’t due out in theaters for another two years, and will open up against Captain America 3. But Warner Bros remains undeterred by the huge success that Marvel is currently experiencing, as they have announced the next phase of their DC Comics Cinematic Universe by naming Zack Snyder as the director of Justice League.

Warner Bros. president of worldwide production Greg Silverman said that the studio has set plans to make a Justice League movie, and confirmed the news to The Wall Street Journal.

Ray Fisher, who was recently cast as Victor Stone/Cyborg, joins Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, who play Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, respectively, in Batman Vs. Superman, with production set to begin next month.

In a recent exclusive interview with Forbes, Man of Steel director Zack Snyder talked about the development and impending shoot for the Superman reboot’s forthcoming sequel, which may or may not be titled Batman Vs. Superman, among many topics of interest to fans of comics and superhero films.

One of the subjects that inevitably came up was exactly how the idea of pitting Superman against Batman in the much-anticipated sequel first came into being.

Though the tentatively titled Batman vs. Superman was pushed back an entire year from its original release date, director Zack Snyder and WB are still working hard to build a great cast. Today they have added Oscar-winning actress Holly Hunter, 300: Rise of an Empire‘s Callan Mulvery, and Captain America: The First Avenger‘s Tao Okamoto.

Deadline reports that the roles have not been specified but they do not have comic book origins, instead these roles have been specifically created for the film itself.

Not content with just a World’s Finest storyline, DC and Legendary Pictures have announced the additions of even more characters to the already overpopulated Man Of Steel sequel, tentatively titled Batman vs. Superman.

The list, consisting of Captain Marvel, Martian Manhunter, Lobo, Booster Gold, Blue Beetle, Guy Gardner, Supergirl, Zatana, and Gorilla Grodd, is sure to be met with mixed emotions from fans.

Director Zach Snyder stated, “I mean, we already have Batman and Wonder Woman on board. So I was thinking that if we get these other guys in here too, we can skip making a whole bunch of movies and just go into Justice League next year. I mean, you know who these guys are from the comics. You don’t need a whole movie per guy. Why carry your eggs in several baskets when you just cram ’em all into one really awesome basket?”

The quest for comic book movie dominance has shifted ever so slightly towards Marvel Studios’ favor, and with the studio showing no signs of slowing down, Warner Brothers with DC Comics, Sony with The Amazing Spider-Man, and Fox with X-Men and Fantastic Four are looking to replicate the same success by creating their own cinematic universes. But with the MCU being the clear frontrunner, it was only a matter of time before we would see a Marvel vs. DC.

No, not in terms of adaptation, but in terms of box office dominance. Never before have the two rivaling comic book houses shared the same release date, but come May 6, 2016, that will all change. Marvel has just announced that they will be releasing Captain America 3 on the same day that WB is planning to release Batman vs. Superman.
