Where Will Superman vs. Batman Film?

Man of Steel was shot largely in Vancouver, but that’s not where its sequel — possibly titled Batman vs. Superman or Superman vs. Batman — will be filmed.

VanCityBuzz reports that the Warner Bros. sequel will lens in Toronto instead because their tax incentives for the film industry are better than those offered by British Columbia.

Henry Cavill is set to reprise his role as Superman. Also returning are director Zack Snyder, writer David S. Goyer, and cast members Amy Adams and Laurence Fishburne. The role of Batman has yet to be cast. The sequel is slated for a 2015 release.

Guess What's Missing From Man of Steel?

Director Zack Snyder talks up his upcoming Superman reboot Man of Steel in the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, dropping a mini-bombshell on a key piece of the superhero’s mythology that’s been excluded from the movie.

“I’ll be honest with you, there’s no Kryptonite in the movie,” Snyder said. Man of Steel hopes to humanize Superman, but by giving him new flaws and vulnerabilities.
