Man of Steel Sequel Delayed Until 2016

Warner Bros. Pictures announced that the release of Zack Snyder's untitled Superman / Batman film has been moved to May 6, 2016, allowing the filmakers time to realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story. The decision was made following the shift of the start of production to second quarter of this year. The date announcement was made by Dan Fellman, President, Domestic Distribution and Veronika Kwan Vandergerg, President, International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.

Fellman stated, "We are happy to take advantage of these coveted summer dates, which are perfect for two of our biggest tentpole releases. We share the fans' excitement to see DC Comics' most popular figures, Superman and Batman, together on the big screen for the first time, which will now be arriving in theatres in May 2016.

Vandenberg added, "We know that there is already great anticipation building for the next Super Hero film from Zack Snyder, and we are equally eager to see what he has in store for Superman and Batman as they share the big screen for the first time ever.

Zack Snyder's Superman / Batman film stars Henry Cavill, reprising his role as Superman / Clark Kent, and Ben Affleck as Batman / Bruce Wayne. The film will also reunite "Man of Steel" stars Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane, and also stars Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman / Diana Prince.

Snyder will direct the film from a screenplay written by David S. Goyer, from a story co=created by Goyer and Snyder. Charles Roven and Deborah Snyder are producing, with Benjamin Melniker, Michael E. Uslan and Wesley Coller serving as executive producers. The film is based on Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster, Batman characters created by Bob Kane, and Wonder Woman created by William Moulton Marston, published by DC Entertainment.

This will put the film up against X-Men: Apocalypse which is set for the following weekend, and The Amazing Spider-Man 3 which is set for the weekend after that, also an as-yet-unannounced Marvel Cinematic Universe film will be out the same weekend as the DC film.
