Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice Trailer – The Caped Crusader doesn’t care how hot Henry Cavill looks

April 18, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Now here’s an interesting one. Coming a few days early due to a bootleg showing up online, the official teaser trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has now arrived, and it shows that the ‘v’ in Batman v Superman isn’t just for show, as the Caped Crusader doesn’t seem very happy with the Man Of Steel.

Indeed, a lot of people don’t like Superman, who is seen as a Messianic saviour by some, but as a False God by a lot more. It’s certainly an interesting set-up and suggests there’s going to be plenty of social metaphor in the movie.

You can take a look at the trailer below, complete with glowing eyed Ben Affleck Batman and Henry Cavil looking hotter than any man has a right to. The film is due out March 25, 2016. [Read more…]

Jesse Eisenberg Goes Bald In First Look At Lex Luthor In Batman v Superman

March 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Lex Luthor is getting a bit younger than Kevin Spacey or Gene Hackman when Jesse Eisenberg takes over the role in next year’s Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice. However he’s still going to be bald and now we’ve got the proof as EW has debuted the first image of the actor as the infamous DC Comics villain.

Director Zack Snyder comments, “He’s not any of the Lexes that you’ve seen, that’s for sure. Other than him being a captain of industry and one person to the world and another person to himself. And bald, of course… Our Lex is disarming and he’s not fake. He says what he believes and he says what’s on his mind. If you can unravel the string and decipher what he means, it’s all there.”

Here’s the synopsis: ‘“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” is the highly anticipated action adventure from director Zack Snyder, starring Henry Cavill in the role of Clark Kent/Superman, and Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman.

‘“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” also stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, with Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane returning from “Man of Steel,” Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, and Holly Hunter in a role newly created for the film.

‘“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” is written by Chris Terrio, from a screenplay by David S. Goyer. Charles Roven and Deborah Snyder are producing, with Benjamin Melniker, Michael E. Uslan, Wesley Coller, David S. Goyer and Geoff Johns serving as executive producers.

‘Principal photography will take place on location at Michigan Motion Picture Studios and on location in and around Detroit, Michigan; Illinois; Africa; and the South Pacific.’

It’s due out May 2016.

Jason Momoa Gets Out His Trident In The First Image Of Him As Aquaman

February 21, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

While there was initially uncertainly whether Jason Momoa’s Aquaman would appear in Batman Vs. Superman, I think we can take this as conclusive evidence that he will, before he gets his own spin-off film and an appearance in Justice League.

Indeed the first image of him in costume above suggests he’s going to have a major role in this, bring the Justice League together. Although it could also refer to the Seven Seas, with Aquaman being the only one true king of them.

We’ll first see Momoa as Aquaman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in March of 2016 (which is likely to be little more than a cameo), then he’ll appear in Justice League Part One in November 2017, an Aquaman movie on July 27, 2018, and then Justice League Part Two in June 2019.

Here’s how director Zack Snyder revealed the pic.

Out Actor Ezra Miller Will Be The Big Screen Flash, Amongst Other Major DC Comics Movie Announcements

October 15, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A few months ago Warner Bros announced release dates for a load of DC Comics movies, but other than Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016, it didn’t say exactly which superheroes would appear in which movies.

That’s now changed, with 10 films having been announced running up to 2020. So what are we getting?

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Suicide Squad (2016)
Wonder Woman (2017)
Justice League Part One (2017)
The Flash (2018)
Aquaman (2018)
Shazam (2019)
Justice League Part Two (2019)
Cyborg (2020)
Green Lantern (2020)

There’s also plenty of casting news, with confirmation that Henry Cavill, Amy Adams and Ben Affleck will return for Justice League, while Gal Gadot will be in Wonder Woman’s shoe in a solo movie, and Jason Momoa will indeed be Aquaman.

On top of that, while Grant Gustin is playing Flash on the small screen, queer actor Ezra Miller (Perks Of Being A Wallfower) will take on the role on the big screen. Ray Fisher meanwhile will by Cyborg. The fact both those roles have already been cast strongly suggests we’ll be seeing them in Justice League and they may even pop up in Batman v Superman in one way or another.

If that weren’t enough, there are also likely to be standalone Batman and Superman movies, so Warner really is betting big on its comic book world and that it can find the same sort of success that Marvel has. Of course if the movies aren’t as successful as they hope, the plans they’ve announced may well change.

Batman V Superman Batmobile Gets Its Official Full Reveal

September 12, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Remember the days when the Batmobile actually looked like a car. Sure it was a souped up and rather impractical cars and when George Clooney drove it, it was essentially a giant black penis with a engine in it, but it was still a car damnit.

No longer, as since Batman Begins things have changed, and while the Batmobile has been redesigned for Batman V Superman, it’s still more tumbler than what Adam West used to drive around in.

Now we get out first proper official look, as Zack Snyder has released a pic, which came after various amateur set pics of it showed up on the web.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is due out May 2016.

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

July 26, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

At 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

Zack 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.

Henry Cavill Is Looking Heroic As Superman In His First Official Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice Pic

July 4, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

A couple of days ago the first pic arrived on Henry Cavill on the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice set arrived, but that wasn’t from the studio, it was released in support Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund.

However now Warner Bros. has followed that up with a very heroic looking shot of Cavill in his full Superman outfit from the film. Shame he couldn’t have found some better weather though.

‘Principal photography will take place on location at Michigan Motion Picture Studios and on location in and around Detroit, Michigan; Illinois; Africa; and the South Pacific.’

It’s due out May 2016. Take a look at the full pic below. [Read more…]

Crush Of The Day: Henry Cavill Gets Charitable On The Batman v Superman Set

June 30, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Director Zack Snyder has given us a few looks at the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice set, but all his images have concentrated on Batman and his equipment. However now we’ve been given our first look at Henry Cavill in set, looking very clean cut as Clark Kent.

If you’re wondering what the t-shirt is he’s holding up, it’s to support The Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund, a British charity that provides services for Royal Marines (both active and retired) and their families.

The tweet that accompanied the pic read, ‘A treat for a Monday morning for all our #HenryCavill fans. Henry is a great supporter of the @RM1664Challenge!’

Now we just need to wait for looks at Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor.

Take a look at the full pic below. [Read more…]

Scoot McNairy Up For Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

June 27, 2014 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Ever since Monsters, Scoot McNairy has become an increasingly popular face for directors looking to fill important supporting roles, such as in Killing Them Softly, Argo, Non-Stop, 12 Years A Slave and the upcoming Gone Girl. Now he’s got a new role, as Deadline reports he’s signed up for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

However nobody at Warner Bros. has confirmed the casting and there’s no news on who he might be playing. That could mean the versatile McNairy is just joining to play a small side-role, but as little news has been released about the plot he could be a more major character. Some are speculating that the fact his casting was announced after a month of shooting has already taken place, means he could have a cameo in Batman v Superman, but will become more important in future DC movies such as Justice League.

McNairy joined Henry Cavill (Clark Kent/Superman), Ben Affleck (Bruce Wayne/Batman), Amy Adams (Lois Lane), Diane Lane (Martha Kent), Laurence Fishburne (Perry White), Gal Gadot (Diana Prince/Wonder Woman), Jesse Eisenberg (Lex Luthor), Jeremy Irons (Alfred Pennyworth), Holly Hunter, Callan Mulvey, Ray Fisher and Tao Okamoto.

Zack Snyder is directing from a script by Chris Terrio and David S. Goyer. It’ll be in cinemas May 6th, 2016.
