Subject: Batman and Superman to team up in new film

Written By: Philip Eno on 07/23/13 at 9:09 am

Superman and Batman are to appear in the same film for the first time, it has been revealed, to the delight of many fans of the popular characters.

The surprise announcement was made by Zack Snyder, who directed the most recent Superman film Man of Steel.

But speaking at a comic convention in San Diego, California, Mr Snyder said the script was still being written.

Production is expected to begin next year and the film is scheduled for release in the summer of 2015.

Warner Bros confirmed that the two superheroes would team up for the first time.

British actor Henry Cavill - who starred in Man of Steel - will again play Superman.

However, an actor for the new Batman is yet to be cast.

"They're both alpha males," fan Benjamin Ha was quoted as saying by the Associated Press. He added that he expected fireworks in the new film.

For many comic book enthusiasts it is a dream come true in what promises to be the ultimate superhero adventure, the BBC's Peter Bowes in Los Angeles reports.

The enduring popularity of Superman and Batman has seen the latest films featuring the two characters earn revenues of more than $1bn (£655m) between them.

They never did a movie with Batman and Superman together before. They have done a cartoon show with it once I think, it the 90s.

Excited!

It would be cool if both of them used their super forces together like what Batman And Superman were known for.

Batman and Superman have been teamed since the Justice League first appeared  :)

the last on screen pairing I'm aware of was the animated movie Apocalypse.

this may be the first live action pairing of the two super heroes... yet another thing we can give Joss Whedon and Avengers credit for!  ;)

Batman and Superman haven't appeared together in a live action movie since Speechless... and they weren't even playing superheroes.  ;) So pumped for this! :) Can they possibly get Bale or even Keaton back?
