It's a very brief mention in this article from THR, but WB is apparently looking for a female director for Wonder Woman.

Kathryn Bigelow
I doubt it. It's too early to start rolling out that hype machine. Middle of next year, we're more likely to get a teaser.
The only woman in Hollywood, apparently.
She'd be the best option though

She does strong action women well. Angela Basset's character was awesome in Strange Days.

Yeah, that´s what i´m thinking too.
16 months until the movie would come out is too much time between first teaser/trailer and release of the movie. I expect the first teaser to come out at SD Comic Con. Would be ~ a year before release which seems to be the case for a lot of movies these days.

They should release that during the Super Bowl.

How far ahead of release was the teaser that was just VO for The Dark Knight? I remember it being quite sooner than expected.
As they should be.
It was released about a year before the movie came out. July 2007.
Nope. First trailer was in November of last year. Production wrapped for that the August or July before that I think
July 2007, I think? A full year before release

Meh, TDKR pretty much ruined all of those characters for me. It was so bad.
My favorite Gordon is Bryan Cranston in Year One.
A full trailer might make more sense for SDCC.

Hmm saw some reference to this in the MCU thread, but any interest in doing a general DC Movies Thread?
But then we'll all get excited anyways.
This is true. Hype train will still be in full effect.

Seems a bit early for anything. I want a teaser soon, but I'm not keeping my hopes up.

I 100% agree with you that I don't think it will be.
Nah, more like the snake was able to distract the tiger long enough for a nearby poacher to get a clean headshot on the tiger. Then, the snake proceed to trash talk like he did something noteworthy lol.

I bet BvS' first trailer is attached to Avengers AoU or Mad Max in May. It's early, 10 months before BvS is out, but March is already unique for a movie of this size.

Bryan Cranston would be easy to capitalize on for Gordon. So many people I knew were more interested in godzilla because of him (lol).
Interesting interview with Geoff Johns about the DC movie and tv strategies and their reasoning behind keeping universes seperate.

From the rumors I doubt he'll have the amount of K needed to build a complete suit out of. Synthetic K is possible but it may not have the same effects. Regardless, this only works if Supes doesn't know about the K himself or how to fight against is (there are ways). In all honesty, Bats best chance would be to harness red sun energy but that'd require a an understanding of kryptonian biology.
Edit: Also, people put way too much weight into Batman "beating" Superman because of The Dark Knight Returns without even getting the circumstances surrounding it. They just see the "I'm the man that beat you" and believe that a plan alone was able to take down Superman.
Another that springs to mind is Mimi Leder (Deep Impact, which I love), but Bigelow would be a better choice.
Rumor: David Ayer wants Eisenberg's Luthor in "Suicide Squad."
Note it may not be possible given Jesse's schedule.

I can't tell if that's satire or not.
Which is I guess par for the course in this thread

No joke bobby
DC needs it's rights back more than ever from WB.

Not to put too fine a point on it, but Luthor can be in the Suicide Squad movie without actually being a member of the squad. That has some potential.

I don't know why Disney doesn't just buy them back.
I don't know why I'm asking at this point...but how is this indicative of them having no clue?

No, DC sold the rights to WB to stave off bankruptcy in an act of desperation.

Fox just needs to buy the rights back.

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Phantom fucking Stranger announced for the movie. lol
As for Lex Luthor in suicide squad, well, why not? Let see how they spin it.
That would be really cool tho.

Don't believe it's lies.
Suicide Squad is planned for 2016 (lol) and they didn't think this out? They should all be communicating, and this appearance in a film releasing (lol) the same year as Dawn of Justice should have been locked in or abandoned when the original negotiations were completed.
Some planning and foresight would go a long way towards building a cinematic universe.

You know wikipedia can be edited by anyone, right? You probably put that in there, so far as I can tell.
c'mon, man.
You know Ayer is rewriting the script right now. This IS the communicating and planning you're saying should be done. They're DOING IT. That's how people are reporting on it - because it's a thing that's happening.
You're literally criticizing the making of a movie for being made the way you think it should be made.
Also, a 2016 release date isn't some sort of super-cramped impossible feat. They make Star Wars movies every two years now, after all. It's going to be a grimy little crime film about c-level superheroes. They don't need 4 years of prep to knock it out.
Ant-Man's coming out next year and they had a completely different writer/director come in less than a month before they started filming.
The shit happens quite frequently in the movie industry.
