Batman v Superman-DOJ: Rumors, Pics And Vids Oh My....!

Things are moving along nicely in Detroit for Zack Snyder's upcoming superhero team-up film "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice"...even as a more rumors have cropped up over the last few days.


*Movieweb suggests that Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) is responsible for much of the city wide damage we've see in the photos and videos so far. The how and why are unknown.

*Producer  Michael Uslan has confirmed to App that despite online reports suggesting the character is in his 50s, Ben Affleck is portraying Bruce Wayne/Batman as a man in his mid-40s.

*ComicBook.com posted a photo from the set which shows a large canvas painting. From the painting's appearance, it has been suggested that "Watchmen" actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan is playing Thomas Wayne albeit only in portrait form.

*Superhero Report has posted a photo of Jena Malone meeting her "Sucker Punch" director Snyder on the film's set last week, which led to reports that she may make a cameo in the film. Malone has since denied that, saying her set visit was just a visit.

*Movie Pilot indicates that Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman.will initially appear to be working at LexCorp possibly undercover, which would bring her into contact with Lois Lane (Amy Adams) who is rumored to be investigating LexCorp in the film.

*Dark Horizons' has collected the latest set videos into one convenient playlist.



*Page Six has released quality pics of Affleck as Bruce Wayne from the set  Click here to see them.

 DOJ will see the return of Henry Cavill as Superman/Clark Kent, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane are set to reprise their roles as Perry White and Martha Kent.Ray Fisher is playing the role of Cyborg in the film. Jeremy Irons has been cast as Wayne's butler Alfred Pennyworth. Holly Hunter, Callan Mulvey and Tao Okamoto ("The Wolverine") have joined the cast. Specifics about their new characters are being kept under wraps. Australian actor Mulvey ("Zero Dark Thirty) has  been rumored for the role of an (unnamed) villain in the film for quite some time now....Scoot McNairy ("Argo," "The Rover") has joined the film. Nobody at the studio will confirm the news or reveal what the role is.

"Man Of Steel" writer David S. Goyer was back on the keyboard but now--THR reports that  Chris Terrio, who won an Oscar for writing Affleck's “Argo,” has been hired to write the latest draft of the MOS 2 script. 

Goyer is in the midst of developing several projects including an adaptation of author Neil Gaiman's  popular comic book series Sandman, which he’ll produce with Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

Christopher Nolan and Charles Roven return to executive produce the multi-hero 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 release was delayed a full 10 months for a number of reasons. As a result, the original release date of July 17th 2015 was no longer. The studio then targeted a May 6th 2016 release. They quickly inserted the fantasy Pan into that original slot. MOS 2 was to go head to head with "Captain America 3" ...Nobody thought that the comic book pics would ultimately share the date--Sure enough DOJ blinked--and will now open on March 25th 2016.
