Imagine if he did something else that no one expected. Like a Batcow movie!

Or that Blackhawks movie he wanted to make. Good point. It has to be DC related though. It cant be that much of a coincidence |

The idea of Steven Spielberg directing a Superman movie makes one wonder if Jaws had had a smoother production, because he was considered to direct Superman: The Movie but Warner Bros. didn't want to risk the production being as hard as it sounded, so they went with Richard Donner after Guy Hamilton left. What we got was the Citizen Kane of superhero movies, and I think if Spielberg had done it would be viewed in the same light today. Similar to every actor who must face comparison with Reeve, I think every director tackling the character would face equal comparison with Spielberg, given how big of a name he would become in the 1980's and 1990's, producing and directing content for widespread appeal and often being the biggest draw for the various television and films made under his company Amblin Entertainment.

It cant be that much of a coincidence I believe Christopher Nolan was there as well, I think if not DC related, Zaslav is trying to get them back to working with the studio, since the release pattern of 2021 effectively made Nolan take Oppenheimer elsewhere. |

And WB might have been obliged to bring him back in some capacity considering, well, they'd get to advertise his name on it again in some capacity. If he'd been involved in the DCEU, he might have been able to talk them out of following their worst instincts to rush to the finish to beat Marvel. |

I thought Nolan was just tired of dealing with WB's nonsense in general as well. |

If he'd been involved in the DCEU, he might have been able to talk them out of following their worst instincts to rush to the finish to beat Marvel. Nolan set them back from having a cinematic universe that could have rivaled Marvel - He convinced them not to produce George Miller's Justice League: Mortal because he argued that audiences would be confused by having more than one Batman on the big screen at the same time, coupled with other factors the movie was toast, but the idea of it was to present the characters as whole and do spin-offs afterwards. He co-wrote the story for Man of Steel and selected Zack Snyder to direct, and was largely fine with the movie except for the controversial demise of Zod towards very end of the movie. I do not know what he contributed to Dawn of Justice or Justice League exactly, but supposedly he had enough involvement in Ben Affleck's casting and was allowed to see both cuts of Justice League before release, but involvement wasn't substantial enough to market as far as Warner Bros. was concerned. Nolan is not really a comic book kind of person (Hence why David S. Goyer was brought in as a writing partner), so what he knows works is purely on the cinematic level, not so much the translation part, which is why Batman worked well for his sensibilities. |

I thought Nolan was just tired of dealing with WB's nonsense in general as well. It is also because he fought hard for Tenet to see theatrical release in 2020 when the movie kept being delayed due to the pandemic, talks of releasing it through other means resulted in a tense exchange of words if I am correct. |

Well, that just convinced me Spielberg would have been a better influence on them in the long run. |
