Just a few days ago, the news about Peter Safran and James Gunn taking over the position of co-CEOs at DC Studios broke out, and it looks like theAquaman 2producer is already looking to quicken the pace of things at the franchise, as the much-awaitedMan of Steel 2project is reportedly progressing with Safran said to be talking about it with Christopher Nolan and Steven Spielberg.
Following Henry Cavill’s reprisal of the role of Superman at the DCEU, a sequel to the 2013 film,Man of Steelhas been all that fans have been talking about. And although the British actor has been talking about his character and the new light he plans to portray him in, he hasn’t given away any concrete information with regard toMan of Steel 2.
There had been talks about WB being in the quest for screenwriters for the film just a while ago, and it looks like the DC heads are getting more serious about the project as they reportedly take a step forward with regard to the same.

Although nothing is certain about what exactly went down at the said lunch, sources claim that the meeting was about Henry Cavill’sSupermansequel, indicating Spielberg’s apparent involvement in the project.
Nolan being at the helm of things with regard to the film is not something entirely out of the blue, given the fact that he was one of the producers of the 2013Man of Steeland has plenty of experience when it comes to producing and directing DC films. And even if Spielberg was to take over the new project, it wouldn’t be his first rodeo with a superhero movie.
Will Steven Spielberg be at the helm ofMan of Steel 2?
The pioneer of the modern blockbuster took up the production ofBlackhawks, a film adaptation of the World War II title from DC comics. Although it is still said to be in development, it’d be safe to assume thatSteven Spielbergis more or less privy to the layout of such movies.
Rumors even had it that Marvel Studios’ Kevin Feige had asked theJawsdirector to direct the upcoming MCU film,Fantastic Fourbefore the latter declined the offer.
