The film was finally announced in 2016 to be in Phase Three of the DCEU and was given the release date of December 14, 2018, nearly five years after it was originally supposed to be released. Only Evans, Mara, Carter, Dennings, and Costner are returning for the film. Robert Pattison, Joe Manganiello, and Angela Bassett were scheduled to star in the original sequel, however the three dropped out when Superman: The Last Daughter of Krypton was announced.

Marketing
A full trailer is supposed to be released in mid-2018, due to spoilers for Flashpoint, which will not be released until June 15, 2018.
