The First Official Pic Of Gal Gadot As Wonder Woman Is Here

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

batman-vs-superman-wonder-womanAt Comic Con today Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot took to the Hall H to a rapturous reception in order to talk about Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Things went into overdrive when the audience was shown a special teaser, giving them a look at Affleck as Batman, with fans suggesting the footage suggested the the hero is styled very closely to how he looked in Frank Miller’s The Dark Knight Rises. There’s no news on whether that teaser will be released outside Comic Con, but Zack Snyder did ensure there was something for those not in San Diego – the first official image of Gal Gadot in full costume as Wonder Woman.

I doubt the outfit will please feminists (indeed there’s a slightly Michael Bay female-fetishism about it), but it does look cool, and hopefully in the film she’ll get to kick ass and we’ll forget she apparently was concerned more about her costume’s sex-appeal than it’s ability to help her do her job.

Take a good look at it above.

Ben Affleck Looks Grumpy In Fresh Pic Of Batman

July 25, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

batman-vs-superman-ben-affleckZack Snyder has decided that Comic Con is a good opportunity to release a new pic of Ben Affleck as Batman. And if this is any evidence, it certainly doesn’t look like the move from Christian Bale to Affleck is going to result in a happier, friendlier Batman.

I can also foresee a problem with Affleck in the role for South Park fans, as the first thing I thought of when I saw the picture was the episode where it was revealed that Ben’s parents has asses instead of heads.

The only message that came along with Snyder’s tweeted pic was ‘#75’, which is likely to be a reference to Batman’s 75th Anniversary, which is being celebrated at various events at Comic Con.

Gone Girl Trailer – Can you follow the clues of David Fincher’s Ben Affleck mystery?

July 7, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

gone-girl-slideThe first full trailer for David Fincher’s Gone Girl has arrived, along with a few posters, all of which seem designed to give us plenty of clues and up the mystery of this upcoming thriller. Plus we get our first proper look at Neil Patrick Harris in full-on creepy mode for the film.

Ben Affleck plays a husband whose wife (Rosamund Pike) goes missing on their fifth wedding anniversary. Inevitably the hubby becomes the primary suspect in her mysterious disappearance, with the signs of a struggle making many assume he has killed her, especially when reasons emerge as to why he might have wanted her out of the way. However, as we learn more about the couple’s relationship, things become much more complex than they first appear.

Fans of the book will be interested to see how they’re going to handle telling the story in the movie version, as one of the main keys to the novel is that half of it is told in the present by the husband, with the other half being the wife’s diary’s. It’s a structure that allows it to go to unexpected places, and it’ll be fascinating to see how Fincher handles that on screen.

The film is due out autumn 2014. Take a look at the trailer and new posters below. [Read more…]

batman-v-superman-Dawn-of-Justice-logoWhile people have been calling the follow-up to Man Of Steel, Batman Vs. Superman, that was always a provisional name, and we knew it was likely to change. Now, as shooting starts, we know that name and we have a logo!

First Look At Ben Affleck As Batman Arrives

May 13, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

ben-affleck-batman-first-picWhen it was announced that Ben Affleck would play Batman in the planned Batman Vs. Superman, there was a lot of grumbling, although since then some people have come around to the idea. Now we get our first look at the actor in costume as the Caped Crusader, along with a pic of the new Batmobile.

It has to be said he’s looking a bit more beefcake than Christian Bale was.

You’ll also notice the pics are in black and white, as Zack Snyder barely mentioned what the pic was of when he tweeted the pic of Affleck on his new Twitter account, instead saying, ‘I shot this with my @Leica_Camera M Monochrom. #Batman #Batmobile #Gotham http://imgur.com/3hRU6px pic.twitter.com/p5DEf6fLzJ’

But hey, perhaps Leica paid a lot for that, who knows.

In Batman Vs. Superman, Henry Cavill will be back Superman/Clark Kent, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane also returning. Newcomers include Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman/Diana Prince, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons as Alfred.

The film is set to hit cinemas May 6th, 2016.

Jay Roach To Direct Matt Damon & Ben Affleck Baseball Wife Swap Drama

May 9, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

jay-roachMatt Damon and Ben Affleck have been hoping to reteam for The Trade for over three years, but it’s only now that it finally looks like it’s coming together. Variety reports that Jay Roach has signed on to direct the Warner Bros.’ baseball sex scandal drama.

The film is based on a true story from the 1970s when sandal erupted after it was revealed that two New York Yankees pitchers, Fritz Peterson and Mike Kekich, had decided to swap wives. Although it has started off as a few swinging one-offs, they eventually decided to make the switch permanent. While it was an equitable arrangement that pleased all parties, the public wasn’t quite as understanding. Fritz and Susanne remain a couple till this day, while Mike and Marilyn drifted apart.

Affleck is eyeing the role of Peterson with Damon as Kekich. Casey Affleck is also likely to star, and indeed he also wrote the latest draft of the script, taking over from David Mandel. Previously both Affleck and Damon have considered directing, but they’ve not handed the reins to Roach.

Jay Roach is best known for comedies such as The Campaign, Meet The Parents, and the Austin Powers films, but has had success with drama such as Game Change and Recount.

Zack Snyder Confirmed To Direct Justice League

April 28, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

zack-snyder-slideThere’s been a presumption that the planned Batman Vs. Superman movie will lead to a Justice League film. However until now Warner has officially confirmed that. Now though they’ve not just said it’s going to happen, they’ve announced Zack Snyder will direct.

Batman Vs. Superman begins production next month, and there’s some suggestion that Justice League will shoot back to back with that movie, although that’s not been confirmed.

It appears if they’re shooting separately we’ll get Justice League in 2018, but if it’s back to back it’ll be 2017.

Specific plot or casting details have not been revealed, but it is almost certain that Henry Cavill will return as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman and Gal Gadot as Wonderwoman. Ray Fisher is expected to make a cameo in Batman Vs. Superman as Cyborg and then appear in Justice League.

There’s no confirmation on what other DC superheroes might appear in the movie.

Gone Girl Trailer & Poster – Did Ben Affleck kill his wife in David Fincher’s movie?

April 15, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment


Gone Girl is certainly an intriguing prospect. With David Fincher behind the camera, a twisting, turning plot based on a bestselling box and Ben Affleck in a role that may well fit him perfectly, it could be well worth watching.

Now we get our first proper taste with a trailer and teaser poster.

Affleck plays a husband whose wife (Rosamund Pike) goes missing on their fifth wedding anniversary. Inevitably the hubby becomes the primary suspect in her mysterious disappearance, with the signs of a struggle making many assume he has killed her, especially when reasons emerge as to why he might have wanted her out of the way. However, as we learn more about the couple’s relationship, things become much more complex than they first appear.

Holly Hunter & More Up For Superman Vs. Batman

April 3, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

holly-hunter-thumbWith Batman Vs. Superman gearing up to shoot this summer, it’s almost surprising we haven’t heard about more new cast members. However now a new trio has signed on as Deadline reports that Oscar-winner Holly Hunter has signed up, and so have two actors with superhero experience, Captain America: The Winter Soldier’s Callan Mulvey and The Wolverine’s Tao Okamoto.

Unfortunately though there’s no info on who they will be, but to stop people poring through the DC archive for possible characters they might be playing, as Warner has said all three actors will play characters newly created for the film.

Director Zack Snyder comments, “Holly has always been one of my favourite actresses; she has immense talent and is always captivating on screen. I had an opportunity to meet her a while back and knew instantly that I had to work with her, so as we began writing the script I made sure to create a role specifically for her. I just had the good fortune to work with Callan on 300: Rise of an Empire and was very impressed with his incredible talent. He’s a fantastic actor and I’m looking forward to having the chance to work with him again. And, quite simply, Tao is a striking presence whose beauty is aptly rivaled by her amazing abilities as an actress. I’m really excited to have her joining us on this adventure.”

Henry Cavill will return Superman/Clark Kent, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane also returning. Newcomers include Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman/Diana Prince, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons as Alfred.

The film is set to hit cinemas May 6th, 2016.

Batman Vs. Superman Slips To From 2015 To Summer 2016

January 19, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

2015 is shaping up to be one hell of a year for gargantuan movies, with the likes of Avengers 2, Star Wars VII and Jurassic World, but now one of the biggest films has slipped out of 2015 and into 2016. Warner Bros. has announced that the release of Zack Snyder’s untitled Batman Vs. Superman film has moved from July 17, 2015 to May 6, 2016.

man-of-steel-promo-pic1The official reason is so that it will ‘allow the filmmakers time to realize fully their vision, given the complex visual nature of the story’. There are also reports that a leg injury to Ben Affleck, who’s set to play Batman, forced a delay to the shoot by a couple of months, putting even more pressure on the film.

Snyder’s Batman Vs. Superman film stars Henry Cavill, reprising his role as Superman/Clark Kent, and Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne. The film will also reunite Man of Steel stars Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane, and also stars Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman/Diana Prince. Zack Snyder will direct the film from a screenplay written by David S. Goyer.

Warner has already moved to put another movie into the July 17th, 2015 slot, which is when we’ll get Joe Wright’s as-yet-untitled all-new Peter Pan adventure.
