No Justice League Movie Until Man of Steel Proves Itself?

The fate of Warner Bros.' planned live-action Justice League of America movie might be riding on how Man of Steel does at the box office.

Variety claims (via Bleeding Cool) that "Warner’s top brass has indicated that they are awaiting the results of Man of Steel, which opens June 14, before moving further ahead."

This makes sense considering the so-so commercial performance of the character's last big screen outing, Superman Returns. Also, with Man of Steel being tonally more in line with the Nolan Batman films and JLA expected to be more "comic book-y," it would seem like the studio would want to gauge audience reaction to this new take on Superman before making this incarnation the centerpiece of JLA.

The JLA movie is reportedly slated for a 2015 release. We'll see if that remains the case after Man of Steel opens.
