Responding to a rising chorus among comic-book fans for an all-star team of DC superheroes, Warner Bros. announced a Justice League movie that will arrive in theaters in 2018.

In an interview with The Wall Street Journal Sunday, Greg Silverman, the studio's president of production, said that Zack Snyder would follow his Man of Steel sequel, 2016's Batman vs. Superman, by directing the long-awaited film version of the popular comics series.

Silverman did not detail the characters who would flesh out Justice League ranks, but said he expected Henry Cavill to return as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman and Gal Gadot to play Wonder Woman.

The announcement is the latest salvo in an escalating showdown between DC and Marvel Comics to rule Hollywood.
