‘Man Of Steel’ Already Getting A Sequel

It should be no surprise that Man of Steel, which opens this Friday, is already getting a sequel. Studios can get a pretty good gauge on whether a film is going to do well, and with all the buzz around Man of Steel, I can see why they would already green light a sequel. See who has signed on already, who hasn't, and take a guess at who the villain will be. 

Oh, I guess we should have lead with a spoiler alert? Superman lives through Man of Steel...

From Deadline:

Warner Bros Pictures is fast-tracking the Superman reboot sequel with its successful twosome already in place: Zack Snyder reprising as director and David S. Goyer repeating as screenwriter. Goyer’s deal is part of a huge 3-picture deal he signed at Warner Bros for Man Of Steel, the sequel, and Justice Leaguewith Superman. What is a question mark next time is the role Christopher Nolan will fill. To reimagine this 3rd Superman franchise, Nolan stepped in as producer and mentor and story co-writer. I’m told that next time Nolan’s producer role won’t be as “full blown”. Hey, he’s busy working on other projects, and now the sequel is on firm footing just as the first’s 3D and 2D grosses start rolling in. (This isn’t a Green Lantern situation all over again: That pic badly underperformed. No way this one will.) Meanwhile, fanboys are speculating who’ll be the villain/s in the Man Of Steel sequel: Brainiac, Bizarro, Metallo, Doomsday, Darkseid, other?

 

Who would you want as the villain in the next Superman movie?
