Justice League Movie: Christopher Nolan, Zack Snyder & Christian Bale Attached?

By Matt Aspin /

How does a Justice League movie with Zack Snyder as director, Christopher Nolan as producer and Christian Bale as Batman sound to you? Well if reports published in Latino Review are to be believed this is the way the movie could be heading provided Man of Steel is a success at the box office upon its release. The Justice League movie project has been shrouded in rumour ever since it was announced as a priority again after The Avengers smashed its way on to our screens and dominated the Box Office last year. Since then it has had more names attached to it than we can count and as quickly as one idea surfaces it is shot down, denied and buried faster than a speeding bullet. The latest "take it with a pinch of salt" piece of information could be the biggest news in the history of comic book movies with Snyder and Nolan the dream team in terms of getting the project off the ground and in to cinemas. Nolan of course is the man who reinvented Batman for a modern generation and made perhaps the greatest comic book movie trilogy of all time with Snyder poised to hopefully do the same thing for the long dormant Superman franchise. Even more intriguing is how the site suggests that because "Anything having to do with these super heroes, goes through " Warner Bros. will use this as leverage to convince Christian Bale to reprise his role as The Dark Knight and return to the big screen opposite Henry Cavill's Man of Steel". It seems odd to us that Nolan would bring back Bale considering the finality he brought to his Batman trilogy so excuse us if we're a little skeptical at the moment. How reliable a source Latino Review is remains to be seen but this is by far the most exciting rumour we've heard to date. Much more exciting than having Ben Affleck star and direct. We'll find out one way or another but in the meantime, Man Of Steel will open in the UK on 14 June 2013. What are your thought? Should Nolan come back or is it time for someone new to don the cape and cowl?
