Zack Snyder's Man of Steel is set for release in 2012 and is poised to be epic. At least Warner Bros. and fans alike hope that is the case. I would love to see the film spawn a franchise much like Christopher Nolan did for Batman. It does not hurt that Nolan is involved with Superman. Unfortunately, there is the little problem of Warner losing ownership of the rights to a significant part of the early Superman universe.
The Siegel and Shuster estates may end up owning th rights to part of the Superman story, while the other parts would be owned by DC Comics. The heirs could get Superman's blue leotard, red cape and boots, and the ability to leap tall buildings while DC retains villains like Lex Luthor plus Superman's ability to fly. I know fans like me are hoping that the two parties will come to an agreement.
