If you're hoping for the "Man of Steel" to encounter the "Dark Night" in a future film there may be a sliver of hope for the union.

Speculation has surrounded whether Gotham City and Metropolis would become sister cities, leading to an inevitable team up of Superman with Batman. "Man of Steel" producer Charles Roven set the record straight.

"The Chris Nolan universe ended - as far as Chris Nolan directing, for sure, but I think he's completely [done] - with the 'Dark Knight' trilogy," Roven told MTV News. "That's the statement and the stories that he wanted to make."

According to speculators, it theoretically does not make sense for a man with God-like powers to be hanging around the likes of Bruce Wayne. However, that does not mean the two couldn't combine forces in a new, shared universe.

"[Christopher Nolan] and [screenwriter] David [Goyer], when they were constructing the story, and when Zack [Snyder] came in and it was important to him [that] whatever the world was that we were building here, it allowed for the possibility [of a shared universe]," Roven said. "We didn't want to create a universe where that wasn't possible. We wanted to create a universe where that might be possible."

DC Comic fans were also hopeful that there would be an appearance of Superman's nemesis Lex Luthor. The trailers for "Man of Steel" show LexCorp building seen in Metropolis' skyline, but Superman nemesis Lex Luthor, is reportedly not in the movie.

"We did make the decision to let you know that there was a Lex, but we also made the decision and we felt that in order to accomplish what we wanted to accomplish in the story, he wasn't the antagonist that we wanted to spend time with on this movie," Roven said. "We certainly talked about him long enough to make sure that if we're going to have that in there, why are we going to have that in there?"

Christopher Nolan's "Man of Steel" will be released to theaters on June 14.
