AMC is building on its Walking Dead cred with a new show about a mysterious plane crash
Seriously, that was my first thought. I bet this will be on Syfy six months after it's aired in Australia. We can hope anyway.
PS: Here's the clearest indication we got, before Man of Steel came out, that if it was a hit they would fast-track Justice League and hire Snyder to direct it, from Empire Magazine:
In Arrowhead: Signal, a mercenary named Kye crash-lands on a desert world, where survival will take everything he's got — and he's not alone. This cool-looking short film was intended to lead to a full-length feature, but instead it's spawned a brand new TV series, appearing on Australian TV.
Ack, that's a terrible thought. I think it's probably barfed on everybody at this point though.
Here's probably the strongest hint we've gotten about Snyder directing Justice League. Back in May, Empire Magazine (which usually seems to have the inside track on big superhero projects like this) quoted Warner Bros. insiders as saying that if Man of Steel does well, Warners will fast-track Justice League and "Snyder…
That sounds like a bogus rumor. I can believe they'd put out a Flash movie — he was prominent enough to have a TV show in the 1990s, after all. But Aquaman? There's no way they're doing an Aquaman movie before Justice League.
That might be the best way to do it, but all the recent reports suggest that's not the way it'll happen. Instead, we'll get Justice League, and some solo films will probably spin off out of it, starting with a new Batman.
Yeah, agree with all of this. And hopefully, WB will hire Snyder to direct MoS but bring in someone new to do Justice League and introduce the other big guns like WW and Flash. There are a ton of directors out there who could do this justice.
