Shane Black in the Running For 'Justice League'?

With Zack Snyder's Man of Steel already in the can, Warner Brothers is still primed to start production on Justice League (provided Man of Steel performs well at the box office this coming June). As first reported by El Mayimbe of Latino Review, WB has reportedly offered Snyder the gig.
But should Snyder turn down the offer, WB has their sights on the runner-up for the director's chair, which is apparently Iron Man 3's Shane Black. Jeff Robinov is apparently a big fan of Black, and the guy got his first break selling his spec Lethal Weapon to the studio way back in the 1980s.
It's still tentative, but WB's directorial picks ain't too shabby so far. Big question is this, if Black does direct JL... will it be set around Christmastime like all his other films?
