'Justice League' Movie News: 'Batman' Solo Movie To Get 'Justice League' Showing Date?
The fans' reactions to the latest trailer of the "Batman v Superman:Dawn of Justice" have reportedly sent chills to the people behind the 2017 "Justice League" movie, prompting them to consider moving the already announced showing date to a later time. Instead of showing the movie featuring the biggest ensemble of DC superhero characters, DC is reportedly fielding a standalone movie of Batman, according to Movie News Guide.
This rumored would-be move of DC was supposedly spurred by the fans' reactions to the opening scene of the latest "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" trailer wherein Batman can be seen giving the bad guys a good fight sans the presence of supernatural powers and only counting on his human skills and strength and ingenious armor and weapons. Despite the audience going gaga over the scenes, it turned out that it sent a different message to the people from DC and Warner Bros.
While the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" movie is supposed to serve as the launch pad of future movie incarnations of characters from the DC Extended Universe, this may not be the case anymore as rumors have it that the "Justice League" movie scheduled for a 2017 release will be pushed backward. Drew McWeeny of Hitfix opined that based on what he had been hearing, fans excitedly waiting for the "Justice League" movie may wait a little longer as a standalone movie of Batman may take its showing date.
