April 11, 2013: Robinov Says "Man of Steel" is First Step Going Foward

EW Magazine Entertainment Weekly has published an online article from the special double-issue edition of the magazine in which they hear from Jeff Robinov, president of Warner Bros. Pictures Group, on what "Man of Steel" means for other DC Universe films.

"It's setting the tone for what the movies are going to be like going forward. In that, it's definitely a first step."

"I think you'll see that, going forward, anything can live in this world," he said. "[Nolan's] Batman was deliberately and smartly positioned as a stand-alone. The world they lived in was very isolated without any knowledge of any other superheroes. What Zack and Chris have done with this film is allow you to really introduce other characters into the same world."

As for when we might here something more concrete he added, "We'll announce something in the next several weeks that will hopefully position the DC characters and the movies we're going to be making."

    However, Robinov was unequivocal when asked if the rumor is true that Nolan will produce a Justice League movie, and bring Christian Bale back with him: "No, no it's not." (Nolan's reps, who have previously declined to comment on that rumor, also confirmed Robinov's statement and told EW that he definitely wasn't involved with Justice League. Nolan is currently busy prepping his sci-fi film Interstellar.)
