I don't think he ever gave a yes or no regarding it.
I don't recall a confirmation either. He expressed some uncertainty due to doing "another Batman score," but this is great news. Man of Steel's score was great.

His Superman score was very pleasing. And his Batman scores are among my favourite soundtracks. I wonder how he will tackle Batman differently this time. An unusual situation indeed.

Zimmer had previously waffled quite a bit about whether or not he'd score World's Finest. I think there's even some discussion on it earlier in this thread.
Him signing on will be really interesting, if only because now he has to come up w/ a Batman motif separate from the Batman motif he came up w/ to replace THE Batman motif.

As the posters above have already pointed out, Zimmer was considering it, but never actually commited to it until now.

That would be a great idea. And get Ramin Djawadi to do Batman side.

Great news, the music and sound was arguably the best part of Man of Steel.

It's not so much pride as it is needing a clear demarcation point between what they're doing now and what came before.
That said - he snuck in a nod to Elfman's score in the Dark Knight soundtrack, and the theme for Superman in Man of Steel is in the exact same key as Williams' original theme, with some parts of it having the same progression, as well.
It's why I was able to so easily blend the two together in this remix. I didn't transpose any notes, pitch-bend or shift any of the tones.
I doubt he'll stray far from what was done in the Nolanverse. They relate so it would make sense for him to stay close. That's likely why he was hired. Loved the music in Man of Steel so the juxtaposition will be quite nice. The harsh bass vs the more airy feel of the Man of Steel soundtrack.
Getting hard just thinking about it.
I love his crazy drums.

He had like 7 drumsets played simultaneously for Man of Steel. Which sounds impressive. But listening to it - it doesn't actually sound that big. Or that full.
I mean, Bear McCreary had DRUMS OF DEATH on the Galactica score, and that was basically just 2 taikos and a trap kit. But those drums were HUGE, and they sounded it.
Zimmer goes for a Phil Spector style wall of sound, and sometimes that works. But with the drums, there needs to be some punch there. You don't need 7 full drumsets playing the same rhythm.
The percussion on The Dark Knight was just about perfect. Shit was LOUD, but it never sounded like he threw the drums wing of a Guitar Center into a dryer.

Hell yes,
his Person of Interest soundtrack is pure Shirley Walker Batman style scoring.
90% of that soundtrack would fit a Batman movie as is.

Shot on film?
I know about the elfman sneak, sadly it was in Rises (too litttle to late) and worst of all I think the song wasn't included in the film (Imagine the fire).
What he did on Lone Ranger was amazing, he did create a complete new score, but when the zimmerfied theme roared I bet everyone turned into a child again.
Yep, that's Bruce Wayne alright.

Outside shot with a business suit and long coat?
Looks like a wide expanse. Airport runway? Maybe filming Bruce's arrival at Metropolis. Gosh I love grasping at straws...

Shouldn't be too much longer til we see official pics.... Hopefully.
I'm not a big Wonder Woman fan but I really want to see her costume more then the others. I get the feeling they're going to do a big blow out for the costumes, title, and any logos. We should be getting all three individual movie universe logos. Won't be surprised to see some more casting announcements as well.

Yup,
I need to see the batsuit!
I just want to know what direction they are taking it in.
Wonder Woman as well, though I don't really care about the new Superman suit MOS was good enough.

Maybe we'll get an official title too. Although I'm guessing that'll be a comic con thing.

Let hope this will put an end to Batman "versus" Superman bullshit.

Guys, I'm scared.
What if the cowl's ears aren't 3.6cm in height from the base of the scalp? What if his belt is more brown than yellow?
Somebody hold me. So many possible ways they can fuck this up and ruin the movie forever.

Fuuu,
going to be a hard wait .
going to be a hard wait .
I just want Wonder Woman to have a "war skirt." Please don't let them stick her in a pair of ugly ass blue underarmor pants.
Sculli fed up with comic movie Gaf, I see.

Or just the negative overreaction that people tend to have toward this movie.
I think it's more general, since the nitpicking he's parodying happens with pretty much every comic film. There's a bit of it going on with X-Men, for example.
Fanboys tend to ruin things.
But on the other hand, some movie costumes could stand to be better.
I'm personally hoping the Batman costume looks bad.
You know Sculli does a great parody of himself sometimes
If that's the case, he got too meta for me. lol
