Thor's Jaimie Alexander Eyes MOS 2 Role?

Blogger Mark Hughes was in the audience for a panel at the 2013 Stan Lee hosted Comikaze Expo over the weekend, which featured --"Thor: The Dark World" actress is Jaimie Alexander.

OK No big deal right?

He tweeted, and then later confirmed in his Forbes.com post that Alexander has been having "conversations" to potentially join Zack Snyder's upcoming Superman/Batman team-up Man of Steel Sequel

She also says she knows things about the story for the film that have not been made public just yet.

This has led to speculation that she has been approached for some sort of role in the film. Could the role be that of a certain Amazonian warrior princess...?


MOS 2 will see the return of Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent, Ben Affleck will play Bruce Wayne/Batman amid lots of fallout--while Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane are set to reprise their roles as Lois Lane, Perry White and Martha Kent.

Those reports that suggested that the chatter about former "Breaking Bad" star Bryan Cranston playing Lex Luthor in the upcoming movie were true have now been denied by the actor.

There's also noise that the production is seeking is a love interest for the Dark Knight in the film. The Type? A woman in their late 20s of any ethnicity. They do, however, specify that she be tall and "possess physicality".

The notice DID NOT give a name for the character, which led to speculation that it could anyone from Vicki Vale to Wonder Woman. A leaked casting call has fanboys thinking that Amazon warrior is in "Batman vs. Superman"

A love interest for Bats suggests that he will have a larger part in the film than expected. It also could mean that other characters like Bruce Wayne's butler Alfred Pennyworth might show up as well.

Singer Justin Bieber uploaded a photo on his Instagram account showing him holding up what appeared to be a personalized script for the film with the hashtag "#Robin" but it turned out to be a prop for a Funny or Die skit.

"Man Of Steel" writer David S. Goyer will be back--as will Christopher Nolan to executive produce the film.

Sources say the new movie is going for the tone of the relationship and fight seen in Frank Miller’s 1980s ground-breaking mini-series The Dark Knight Returns.

The film will shoot in Detroit and throughout Michigan sometime in the first quarter of 2014. Warner Bros will also shoot the movie in Toronto to meet its release on July 17 2015. Some filming for the film's opening sequence is already in the can
