It seems today we are getting a lot of news and inside from the directors of Captain America: The Winter Soldier Anthony and Joe Russo regarding Captain America 3 and also about the release date between their movie and Batman v Superman:Dawn Of Justice from different sources.
But in an interview with COMICBOOK.COM earlier today when the co-director were asked the about their thoughts in the change in the release date of Batman v Superman from Captain America 3 May 6, 2016 to a new slot in March 25, 2016,
Joe Russo said.
"That's nothing we spent a lot of time with because we can't control it, But also at the same time we've been in this industry long enough to know that those films were never going to land on the same day with each other so we knew that somebody was going to move."
Joe Russo also said.
"To be honest, in this marketplace where it's been proven now that you can release anywhere from January to December and do really well, it didn't matter who moved, I think people are realizing that releasing at a time where you can get a couple of weekends – and I think Cap 2 proved this – where you don't have to worry about competition is the absolute smartest thing you can do. We're still number one domestically. When you look at Guardians of the Galaxy, it's similar in that it was released at a time of year where it didn't have to go up against X-Men or Godzilla or Transformers. And it's had a very healthy run and now it will end up as the top domestic movie. So I think it was smart. I think they took a smart date and I think they're going to do very well there."
So what do you guys think?
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice comes to theaters on March 25, 2016.
Captain America 3 set to release on May 6, 2016.
