While there’s been a lot of discussion about where the Marvel Studios movies are headed in the next couple of years, there hasn’t been a lot of news about the future of the DC Comics franchise at Warner Brothers.

A few weeks ago, we reported that the studio has appointed Christopher Nolan to oversee the proposed reboot of the Superman movies and that we’ll get a new Batman film in the summer of 2012. It’s also been rumored that DC wants to get the long gestating Flash movie into production for that summer and the long in development limbo Wonder Woman movie is also part of the plan.

The popular actor found time recently – in the midst of the Iron Man 2 promotional campaign no less – to chat with Moviehole about some of his new and upcoming films.

This all makes me so happy. I think Megan Gale is a great choice for Wonder Woman – and any The-Hobbit-Being-Made news is happy-making news (and Bats and Supes!). And Woot Robert Downey Junior movies!
