A Supergirl and The Legion of Super-heroes movie would be incredible on the big screen. That is how you position a Supergirl movie so it doesn't feel like a derivative Superman rip-off for mainstream audiences. I'm pretty sure that is how Marvel would manage it if they were running DC's movies.

Matthew Vaughn reportedly in talks to direct the sequel

Edit: can we add an S to new? It's been driving me nuts that the thread title says New instead of news

Nice. Bring along Jane Goldman and write the script and we're gold!

Vaughn is a solid director. I'd be curious to see what he could bring to the table for a Superman film.

Please make this happen. If Vaughn does sign on, I assume he has the weight to have final cut and leave the studio out of f'ing with the film.

Edit: Someone on Twitter mentioned Vaughn had previously worked with Cavill on Stardust.

Well they corrected their first mistake - Snyder is no longer directing.

I'm going to guess that Vaughn will pass.

I'm going to guess talks will break off and a week later he'll sign on.

With Reeves on board for Batman and if Vaughn does Superman things could be looking up for the DCEU. Two solid directors. Vaughn hasn't made a film I haven't liked and X-Men: First Class is one of my favorite superhero movies (definitely one of my favorites of the X-Men films).

Re: Man of Steel 2 - News, rumors, etc.

Interesting quote from Vaughn (before MOS was in production):

“I think that’s the one thing not to do with Superman, trying to do the serious The Dark Knight version. Superman is about color and fun, or it should be, for me.”
Also, per the Collider story:
Moreover, sources tell us that if Vaughn for some reason doesn’t direct Man of Steel 2, Warner Bros. still wants him to helm another superhero movie in the DCEU.

No director and re-working the script. A 2018 release date isn't happening for that movie.

Just saying that if WB wants him to helm one of the DCEU storylines, I think he'd be a damn good fit for The Flash. MOS2 shouldn't even be talked about until JL is released.

Why not? It's not like there's a script ready and it can start filming anytime this year.

Batman may be their cash cow but a good Superman, with Henry Cavill, can be done.

YES!!! Legion, I will take it with Superboy, SG or just on their own.

Plus, we need a Warlord Movie (Come on, Dinos in the middle of the earth).

Plus, we need a Metal Men Movie...CGI would be great, like Transformers.
-M Bay director???

Would have loved to see a Black Lightning, but CW is already doing that.

Re: Man of Steel 2 - News, rumors, etc.

How can there be a MAN OF STEEL 2 when Superman died in BATMAN VS. SUPERMAN? Big continuity error...

(And yes, I realize that this joke has been made before...)

The only Superboy we'll be getting in movies going forward is...

Spoiler:
Superman's son, Jonathan Kent.

WB Exec #2: "What about Henry Cavill's Superman?"

WB Exec #1: "Who? Oh right, well we'll fit Superman in the movie somewhere. Now find me a new Batman!"
