‘Man of Steel’ Henry Cavill on How ‘Batman v Superman’ Ties Into DC Shared Universe

It is clear from the trailer that Man of Steel has paved the way for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Zack Snyder, DC’s own Joss Whedon, has big plans for the Justice League and DC Franchise. Now, Superman himself, Henry Cavill (Man from U.N.C.L.E.) is weighing in on Zack Snyder and Warner Brothers plans for the shared DC Cinematic Universe.

Recently, Henry Cavill spoke to Uproxx about Warner Brothers plans for the DC franchise:

“There’s a big plan in place at WB for the whole DC franchise. So, all of this stuff ties in. They’re not thinking from movie to movie, they’re thinking from a big tent pole type thing and each story has its own story, which is attached to the major issue. Yeah, there’s a big plan.”

Zack Snyder recently let Comic Book Movie in on his masterplan for the franchise, stating

"What we are doing is ground up all the way. It is one giant story. The first thing we had was the Justice League concept. The other movies, in a way, have to support that. That is our Wonder Woman, our Aquaman. They have their own creative concepts that supports them, but they do serve Justice League in the coming together of those heroes."
