When comes to potential franchise, a sequel is always fast to be greenlighted even though the first movie is yet to be determined whether it's a box-office hit or a flop. Such case is Zack Snyder's upcoming SUPERMAN reboot, MAN OF STEEL, due June 14, 2013. While production is currently under way, Warner Bros. has already thinking about a sequel. Now that is faster than I thought.
Looks like screenwriters Steve Kloves (HARRY POTTER series), Travis Beacham (CLASH OF THE TITANS) and Lawrence Kasdan (DREAMCATCHER) emerges as front runners to pen MAN OF STEEL sequel script. So far no deals have been signed, and none of the screenwriters have even met with the studio yet.
Despite the possibility of a sequel, it isn't known whether Zack Snyder will return for MAN OF STEEL sequel or not.
