Some potentially huge breaking news from inside Comic-Con today: according to The Hollywood Reporter{ =nofollow}, Warner Bros. is set to announce that Henry Cavill’s Man Of Steel Superman will be teaming up with Batman in 2015, followed by a stand-alone Flash film in 2016 and the long-gestating** Justice League** in 2017.

Zack Snyder is set to direct the Supes/Bats team-up, which will be scripted by** Man Of Steel** collaborator David S. Goyer.

With Cavill back in the super-suit, the big question remains as to who will play Bruce Wayne/Batman, since Christian Bale has ruled out a return.

There are even fewer details thus far on the Flash and Justice League announcements beyond the release years, but with the Warner Bros./Legendary panel happening as we write this, expect more news to hit fairly soon today.
