March 13, 2014: Captain America to Go Head-to-Head with Superman/Batman

Superman/Batman Movie Marvel remain resolute on holding the May 6, 2016 release date for one of their as-yet unannounced films, refusing to blink in the face of Warner Bros. deciding to release the upcoming Superman/Batman film on that same date.

    Speaking to us at the Captain America: The Winter Soldier junket, Feige laughed at the thought of fanboys getting excited at a potential Marvel vs. DC box office showdown:

    "We're certainly keeping the date there and we'll announce what that movie is, I assume, in the next few months. Comic-Con is in the next few months, so is that a target?"

    "That would be great, I'd love nothing more than to be able to announce them all there. But if it's ready beforehand, we'll probably do it beforehand. If it's not ready then, we'll do it after."

    Of course, though Feige is the president of the studio, he's not the lord of all release dates. Someone at Disney could, ultimately, move the Marvel movie from that day. Or vice versa at Warner Bros. We're talking over two years from now, after all, and anything can happen. But for Feige to be so confident in whatever film they tentatively have in store for May 6, 2016, to say they'll go head to head with DC's best, is pretty impressive.
