A couple weeks ago, it was reported that Warner Bros. is moving ahead with a Lobo movie, with Wonder Woman scribe Jason Fuchs penning a new script. Of course, this is only the latest attempt to bring the Main Man to the big screen. WB has had this film in development for several years, so we’ll see if Fuchs’ script gets made. But for a past iteration, it turns out WB had a meeting with none other than Tim Miller. Speaking with HitFix, the Deadpool director reveals that he and the studio met to discuss Lobo. “I met on…Lobo two, three years ago. They had a script then. So it’s…

This is the third weekend of release for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and the Zack Snyder-directed film has (very) narrowly lost the top spot at the box office to new release The Boss. According to Variety, the comedy movie, starring Melissa McCarthy, grossed an estimated $23.5 million in its opening weekend.

After meeting Wonder Woman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (set in the present day), the character’s standalone film will flash back a century to Diana Prince’s adventures during World War I. In a new interview with Digital Spy, star Gal Gadot comments on playing a younger and less experienced Wonder Woman, as well as the movie’s tone. Gadot reaffirms that Wonder Woman is very much an origin story for the heroine, and when we meet her in this movie, she’ll be very different from her present day self in Batman v Superman. “In Batman v Superman, you get a glimpse of who she is but not where she…
