Earlier this week producers Allen J. Schwalb of Star Partners and Bob Farnsworth of Hummingbird Productions announced that they are developing a sequel to Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life, which would centre on the grandson of George Bailey (James Stewart) and basically tell the exact same story as the 1946 classic.

Since the huge announcement at Comic-Con that director Zack Snyder will bring together DC Comics’ two most iconic heroes, we’ve been referring to the upcoming Man of Steel sequel as Batman vs. Superman.

Seems that these days, you can’t have a big Marvel sequel without a subtitle, and that’s also the case for The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which has reportedly received the subtitle Rise of Electro… for its release in Brazil at least, […]
