Zack Snyder, director for the ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’, that will be in theaters in March, had some Batman fans not too happy as they were hoping for director Christopher Nolan to come back with another masterpiece as he did with ‘Batman Begins’, ‘Dark Knight” and “The Dark Knight Rises”. Even Nolan himself found it “a little bit hard” to consider Snyder according to Empire.

Snyder states that Nolan told him, once it was revealed he was doing the new Batman/Superman flick:

“Well, we don’t own these characters. When you’re done making Batman movies, someone else will [make them].”

Nolan stopped doing Batman films because he didn’t want to do them for the rest of his career. Rumor has it that Christian Bale didn’t want to be known as Batman forever either.

Even though the trailer looks great, many are still not convinced Snyder is the right guy. We will see in March.
