Heat Vision reports that Barry Meyer (Warner Bros. Entertainment Chairmand and CEO) recently talked about the upcoming slate of movies for Warner Bros. Pictures.
After announcing a mid-December 2011 release for Sherlock Holmes 2 and mentioning the previously-announced July 20, 2012 release date for Christopher Nolan’s next Batman movie, Meyer said that the studio is eyeing a 2012 holiday season release for the next Superman movie. The exec also revealed that they are getting close to giving the go-ahead for a movie about DC Comics’ The Flash! Meyer mentioned that films about Aquaman, Wonder Woman and MAD magazine characters are in development as well.
I’ll take it as it is: Just a simple quick overview of what might come in the near future. Meyer doesn’t confirm anything here, just Sherlock Holmes 2 and Batman 3. From the rest of the news, I’m excited that the wheels are turning for a new Superman on 2012. I enjoyed Superman Returns, and I would’ve wanted to see what Bryan Singer would’ve done with the next one (add a big baddie, more action and Brandon Routh). But as we all know, that won’t happen. So I’m curious as to what this new Superman will bring about.
As for Flash, Aquaman and Wonder Woman, once again nothing new or huge is stated here. I’m a bit surprised about the MAD magazine info – that’s interesting?
And as we always do in the internet world, because it’s fun! – What actors would you like to be cast for this superhero roles? Directors?
