The Batman Vs. Superman Cameo Discussion: Aquaman, Flash & Cyborg

Obvious SPOILERS follow for Batman Vs. Superman.

Note: It’s already been announced numerous times that Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller and Ray Fisher are going to appear in the movie, so that part is not a spoiler.

That said, now let’s discuss the Aquaman, Flash and Cyborg cameos.

Lex Luthor has a file on metahumans that contains info on Wonder Woman, The Flash, Cyborg and Aquaman. Bruce Wayne tries to steal it, but Diana Prince ends up stealing Batman’s device first; however, she can’t break the encryption, so she ends up giving it back to Bruce Wayne, who uses the Batcave computer to decrypt it. Diana Prince wanted the file because it contains an image of herself from 100 years ago (check out the pic here).

Bruce Wayne ends up giving the file to Diana who looks through it, and that’s where we get the second Flash cameo, Aquaman and Cyborg.

Aquaman

Jason Momoa’s Aquaman cameo wasn’t as good as The Flash or Cyborg. Actually, I wasn’t quite sure what was going on with it, other than the military(?) was investigating a possible downed ship. When the camera (drone?) came to the ship, Aquaman came out of the hole and used his Trident to destroy the camera-drone. Was more referenced in this scene? I may have missed it.

Cyborg

Cyborg’s was pretty wild. We didn’t get that football scene that Zack Snyder was said to have filmed way back in October. I believe Perry and Clark made reference to it a couple times. I’m guessing Ray Fisher may have been involved, but it looks to have gotten cut. Anyway, maybe it had nothing to do with Cyborg, but the scene showed half of Cyborg’s body up on a wall attached to equiment at Star Labs. Was that his father? Some guy was trying to revive him, but initially couldn’t(?). Then he used some sort of tech (Kryptonian?) that bonded to Cyborg and gave him his metal parts. Honestly, I thought it was a larger Tesseract from Avengers (lol). Cool scene. Update: The tech is confirmed as a Mother Box, and Joe Morton plays Silas Stone.

The Flash

Fans have been pretty much upset that Grant Gustin isn’t The Flash in the DCCU. Snyder said some BS about Gustin not fitting in in the Justice League universe. Okay, whatever. I felt Ezra Miller made an impressive debut. He actually had two cameos. He communicated to a sleeping Bruce Wayne that Bruce is right about him all along (Superman? we’re not sure). The Flash tells Bruce that Lois is the key; to watch out for her or something like that. This reminded me a lot of the Injustice: Gods Among Us video game: Lois dies and Superman goes bad. That was the feeling I was getting here.

Regarding The Flash costume (people are already going nuts on our Facebook), the costume was an armored version. I felt The Flash needed the armor to protect him from travelling where ever he was travelling to/from. I also thought maybe this Flash might have the armor to protect himself whenever he goes ultra-fast. The last episode of The Flash TV series saw Trajectory run too fast and disappear, maybe the Ezra Miller Flash was protecting himself from something similar. We also know this probably isn’t the final Flash costume as Zack Snyer teased a different version (at least I think as much).

The Flash Cameo #2

This is another part of the Diana Prince scene where she is watching the Lex file. It shows Barry in a convenient store buying some milk when the store gets robbed. Barry moves as quick as a flash and stops the robbery! What I thought was cool about the scene was that Barry seemed to move faster than the camera. Barry didn’t really “disappear” from camera #1 — he seemed to move too fast that it appeared as if he was in two places at once! Now that’s fast! Zoom who?!

What are your thoughts? Let is know in the comments below or on Facebook.

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has a March 25, 2016 release directed by Zack Snyder starring Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Ray Fisher as Cyborg with Callan Mulvey, Holly Hunter as Senator Finch and Tao Okamoto as Mercy Graves.

Synopsis:

Fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.

Watch: Zack Snyder Talks Justice League Movie Title & Production Schedule

Following Batman Vs. Superman, Zack Snyder goes on to direct Justice League, which begins filming April 11th in the UK.

Collider caught up with Snyder in the following video to get his thoughts on the possible official Justice League title and production schedule.

Justice League stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash and Ray Fisher as Cyborg.

Here’s the text:

Right now the working title is Justice League. Actually, I’m in that phase where I’ve been drawing logos and I’ve been drawing title treatments and stuff like that to try and figure out what it means, what Justice League is, visually, so we’ll see if the name evolves with this visual presentation.

The schedule’s close, it’s not quite as long, but give or take. We have a more efficient machine in England because we have a big backlot that we built for Gotham and Metropolis, so it’ll be easier to photograph than when you have to close down streets. But it’s a beautiful backlot.

The Batman v Superman logo I drew so long ago. I know there’s versions of it that existed anyway, but that one in particular I [drew]. The thing that’s kinda cool about the Batman suit [and] our Batman logo is that the dimension is the same as the Man of Steel logo, the bottom of the bat. So I said, “No, it’s cool. It’s okay. It’s mythologically okay.”

Grant Gustin Flash Not A Fit For Justice League Universe Says Zack Snyder

I’ve said it once, and it’s worth saying again: If ever DC was looking for their Spider-Man, they’ve found it in the Grant Gustin Flash.

I also think it’s a colossal mistake by WB not to use Grant Gustin (and Stephen Amell’s Green Arrow) in the DC Cinematic Universe.

Obviously, Zack Snyder disagrees as he cast Ezra Miller in the role of Barry Allen for the DCCU, which hasn’t been well received by fans.

Now we hear exactly why Zack Snyder chose to go a different route, and it’s because he feels the Grant Gustin Flash is too different in tone than the Justice League movie universe.

“I just don’t think it was a good fit,” Snyder told the New York Daily News of bringing Grant Gustin’s Flash into the Justice League universe. “I’m very strict with this universe, and I just don’t see a version where…that (tone is) not our world.”

Snyder continues in what seems an attempt – or an excuse- to calm the masses (sorry, Zack; not working) by stating Grant Gustin’s Flash is part of the overall DC multiverse.

“Even if Grant Gustin is my favorite guy in the world and he’s very good, we made a commitment to the multi-verse (idea), so it’s just not a thing that’s possible.”

From Snyder’s comments, I guess we are supposed to take from that, that the Grant Gustin Flash is too light and too happy. Now we know we can expect a dark and depressing Ezra Miller, right?

Ezra Miller, you have some mighty fast boots to fill. Good luck.

Gotham’s David Mazouz Says Justice League Would Crush The Avengers (Video)

The cast of Gotham got to attend the premiere of Batman Vs. Superman earlier tonight where the young Bruce Wayne offered up his thoughts on Justice League vs. The Avengers.

David Mazouz said on the Red Carpet that it wouldn’t even be close.

“I’m sorry, we are at a DC Comics thing here. The Avengers are out. Justice League. I mean, come on. Martian Manhunter, Aquaman. I can’t. I can’t… Justice League,” Mazouz said.

Mazouz also said Wonder Woman would beat Black Widow, and further offered why the Justice League would beat the Avengers.

“Because their powers are so much greater. I mean, who do the Avengers have?” the young Bruce Wayne questioned. “A guy in some iron suit, that’s not even iron. It’s actually bread. Then there is a big green guy. Calm on. We have Aquaman. We have Wonder Woman. We have The Flash. There’s no way. Justice League’s headquarter are in space. The Avengers headquarters are like somewhere in Iron Man’s city. Like, who cares. It wouldn’t be close.”

Henry Cavill appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight where the Man of Steel offered a slight tidbit about the Justice League movie.

It seems as if the feud started in Batman Vs. Superman between the two doesn’t end there as it continues into Justice League.

Cavill confirms they are about to shoot the Justice League movie, with Kimmel mentioning that Superman has to be the leader of the group, to which Cavill offers that may not necessarily be so.

“There’s pretty much an argument between him and Batman as to who is the leader,” Cavill offered in the vide above on Kimmel.

A Batman Vs. Superman clip was also featured on Kimmel which was the previously released “Do You Bleed?” clip. Watch below.

Zack & Deborah Snyder Talk Justice League Universe; R-Rating, Rumors & More

THR has an interview up with Zack and Deborah Snyder about Batman vs. Superman, the Justice League movie universe, confronting various rumors and more.

Check out some highlights:

On Deadpool being the rumored reason why they went with an R-rated Batman Vs. Superman director’s cut home release:

Deborah Sndyer: Online, everyone’s like, “Oh, they’re doing an R-rated in reaction to Deadpool,” and you’re like (laughing), “We didn’t just shoot it last week, and we also didn’t edit it last week.”

Zack Snyder: The why of that is [the DVD version] is a half-hour longer, and some of that additional material is some of the stuff we took out for the rating. I was like, “Cool, I can put it back in for the director’s cut.” There was nothing by design. This was the material I just put back in, and then when [the MPAA] looked at it again, they were like, “Oh, now the movie’s rated R.” And, by the way, it’s not a hard R. There’s no nudity. There’s a little bit of violence. It just tips the scale.

On the rumor that following the second Batman Vs. Superman trailer (with Doomsday), they went back and re-cut the movie:

DS: No. When we had a locked picture, we didn’t change anything. We’ve been working on the 3D. We did the 3D conversion after the movie was done.

On the Justice League universe:

DS: Zack and [DC chief creative officer] Geoff Johns have outlined a timeline of where everybody is based off of, where our characters go in Justice League. So there’s a framework.

Zack: Batman v. Superman was always a steppingstone for Justice League, and it was a way to bring the worlds together without being too jarring. Once you say Batman and Superman exist in the same universe, you’re also saying that Wonder Woman can exist in that world and Flash and Cyborg and Aquaman.

The mandate is that we try and make the best movies we can. If you’re making a Flash movie with Ezra Miller, it’s like millennial Flash. It’s going to be a little lighter than making a World War I epic with this feminist icon like Wonder Woman. The films do live in a united universe.

Members of the DC Brain trust (in addition to Zack and Deborah):

ZACK Chuck [Roven], our partner.

DEB Richard Suckle is producing some of these. On our end, Wesley Coller is an executive producer who works on all the things that we work on. He’s part of our inner family. Geoff Johns is just super valuable, and I think Zack and Geoff really have worked out a lot of the creative ideas as to where the characters are going. Geoff [ensures] we’re doing things that are true to the canon because he knows everything about these characters. And Jon Berg is our executive on all the films, and then obviously Greg [Silverman] was our executive when we first came to Warner Bros., so we’ve always worked with Greg.

They seemingly take a dig or two toward Marvel in regards to giving the DC directors freedom to go the route they want to:

Deb: But it’s filmmaker-driven, in that we want to hire directors who still have a point of view and that have latitude because we don’t want all the movies to feel the same. David Ayer has a certain tone and feel to what he brought to Suicide Squad, as does Patty [Jenkins] to Wonder Woman. They have freedom to tell their story in the way that it needs to be told.

Zack: Our philosophy, though, is it’s filmmaker-driven. A lot of it comes from the idea of “do unto others.” How would I feel if I was told, “Listen, this is your movie, but shoot it like we say”? It’s not fun and cool, and I don’t think you get the best work from everybody. To understand that, there is a bigger storyline, and let’s all support that and not blow up the entire universe because you have an idea that you think is awesome but doesn’t make sense with the bigger thing.

And on “DC vs. Marvel?”

Zack: You have these two giant comic book powers, and it would make sense that they would in some ways be compared to each other. It’s like comparing Downton Abbey and Mr. Selfridge. Like Star Wars and Star Trek. Those are things that you could compare, but no one ever does. Those [DC versus Marvel] conversations are fun for the Internet. But in truth, it represents such a small group of people who are actually versed in the difference between DC and Marvel. The average moviegoer doesn’t know. Like my dad would be, “Is Spider-Man ever going to be in any of your films?”

It’s learned that Star Trek: The Next Generation‘s Brent Spiner will provide the voice of the Ridder for the new Cartoon Network Justice League Action animated series.

Spiner, who previously voiced the Joker for Young Justice, told Comic Book Central (via Newsarama) in a podcast that he is voicing Riddler as Mark Hamill wanted to once again voice Joker.

“There’s a new Justice League coming on, and Mark [Hamill] decided this time he wanted to the Joker, so I ended up doing the Riddler,” revealed Spiner. “I’ve only done one episode, but then I only did one episode of the Joker, too.”

The new Justice League Action series is set to debut this Fall and also stars Kevin Conroy as the voice of Batman, James Woods as Lex Luthor and Diedrich Bader as Booster Gold.

Brent Spiner played Data in ST: TNG.

Synopsis:

Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman lead the DC Comics Super Heroes against their most infamous foes in adventures packed with relentless thrills, fun and action. No need to wait for the good stuff to start, each eleven-minute episode jumps in with lightning-paced action and heroics. Whether defending the Earth, facing invaders from space, or battling the bizarre forces of magic, the always-rotating team of Justice League heroes, are up to any challenge.

Is Dan Amboyer Metallo In Batman Vs. Superman?

Could Dan Amboyer actually be playing Metallo in Batman Vs. Superman and not Green Lantern?

The WB execs recently stated in an article with Entertainment Weekly that there is no reference to Green Lantern in Batman Vs. Superman, and that we might not see Green Lantern until the 2020 Green Lantern Corps movie, which is four years away.

So what’s been up wth Dan Amboyer who has been teasing “green” on his Instagram?

The latest has a pic of Amboyer bathed in green light, with Amboyer adding to the post: “find your lime light.”

While that obviously seems like a Green Lantern tease, if we go by the words above that we might not see Green Lantern for four more years, Dan Amboyer may be playing another “green” character. We an probably scratch Martian Manhunter off the list because Supergirl is using him, so possibly Metallo sounds likely.

The green would fit with Metallo as the Superman nemesis is imbued with Kryptonite, and in the latest comic books, John Corben is a member of the mitary working under General Lane. In Batman Vs. Superman, Dan Amboyer is said to be Lieutentant Christie, a drone pilot.

Batman Vs. Superman R-Rated Details From Zack Snyder, Ben Affleck & Charles Roven

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24608:]]

Below you can check out details on the R-Rated home release of Batman Vs. Superman from director Zack Snyder, Ben Affleck and producer Charles Roven.

EW.com provided the following:

• Currently unknown how long the director’s cut will be (theatrical version is 2h 31m).

• R-rated theatrical releases for DC movies is said to be unlikely.

• Jena Malone is not Batgirl or Robin.

• Suicide Squad will be rated PG-13.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24606:]]

Ben Affleck:

“I’m a parent of young kids, and I feel like I wouldn’t want to have a Batman v Superman that I couldn’t show to my younger kids,” the actor says. “But on the same token, as an adult, I like to see movies that are R-rated. I think nowadays because we have so many means of distribution and ways that we can do different things, it’s the creative solution to a creative challenge.”

Ben Affleck on PG-13 Version:

“You can have multiple versions and I can show my son and my daughters this movie and feel confident that the stuff isn’t too crazy, and then grownups can see larger version, [which is like] the red-band trailer. They can see the more adult version of that movie.”

Ben Affleck on R-rating:

“These movies have definitely evolved from being comic books for children aimed at kids. Now they’re the most mainstream movies made, the most successful, the most widely viewed movies these days,” he says. “Clearly there’s a big enough audience. I think it’s cool. Why not have an R-rated version that you release for download or on DVD later? I think that’s smart.”

Zack Snyder:

“We were just like, ‘Okay, look. We’re not making a three-hour movie. I mean, even I didn’t want to make a three-hour movie,” Snyder says. “I drove the cuts probably harder than anyone. The studio, they were willing to let the movie indulge pretty hard. But I felt like it’s at a manageable two-and-a-half hours. Let’s also not forget the credits are super long, the end credits. So the movie’s closer to two hours and 22 minutes.”

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24605:]]

Zack Snyder on Jena Malone, who was cut from the theatrical version, but will be featured in the director’s cut:

“I think we should keep it private, but it’s nothing that’s been talked about,” Snyder says. “She’s definitely not Robin or Batgirl. I’m happy to say that.”

Zack Snyder says other new characters are in the director’s cut:

“There’s a couple, like, Ahman Green, the running back from the Green Bay Packers, he’s in it. And C.T. Fletcher is like this bodybuilder muscle-guru from Compton, this awesome guy. He’s amazing, and he’s in it,” Snyder says. “And then there’s just a lot of these Easter Eggs in the Director’s Cut that I think are gonna be fun for everyone.”

Snyder says something big is in the director’s cut teasing Justice League:

“There’s one giant one that I won’t tell you about yet that speaks to what’s gonna go on in the greater Justice League universe,” he says.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24604:]]

Producer Charles Roven on R-Rating:

“There’s not a lot of blood in our movies,” he says. “The ratings board also judges their PG-13 and R ratings by what they consider to be a level of intensity and how much that intensity goes throughout the entire movie. There are some pretty intense scenes inBatman v Superman, and if they went on longer and had that same level of intensity, that might cause the ratings board to shift their rating.”

Charles Roven confirms PG-13 rating for Suicide Squad:

“I think right now we’re going for the PG-13. I don’t know that that’s going to materially change,” he said. “We can give that movie the edge that it needs and still maintain a PG-13.”

No Green Lantern For Batman Vs. Superman Or Justice League Movie

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24595:]]

Contrary to the so-called Batman Vs. Superman advanced screenings, now it’s reported Green Lantern is not in “The Dawn of Justice.”

In EW‘s latest coverage of the movie, it’s noted Green Lantern “is not referenced ” in Batman Vs. Superman.

Futhermore, it’s suggested Green Lantern may not return to the big screen for a while.

“[Green Lantern] is an incredible character. He’s actually multiple incredible characters,” said Greg Silverman, the president of creative development and worldwide production at Warner Bros. “There’s real opportunity there. We didn’t do a great job on that first Green Lantern movie. This is a character who deserves to be treated in the same way that Batman and Superman and Wonder Woman are being treated now, which is with great reverence. I guess I can say to the Green Lantern fans: if they can be patient with us, I think they’ll be really happy.”

So how long will Green Lantern fans have to wait? Possibly until 2019 or after.

“Every beat of the movie is not yet worked out,” producer Charles Roven offered. “So there’s the possibility that he may or may not be in Justice League 2. For now, we felt that we were introducing enough characters that the best possible place we could put Green Lantern is some introduction in Justice League 2, or barring that, a movie after.”

WB currently has the Green Lantern Corps movie set for 2020 following the 2019 release of Justice League – Part 2; so we may have to wait until the standalone GLC movie.

It was previously rumored that Dan Amboyer was playing Hal Jordan.

Flash & Cyborg Confirmed Again For Batman Vs. Superman

The actors themselves previously confirmed appearances in Batman Vs. Superman, and now it’s again confirmed the Ezra Miller Flash and Ray Fisher Cyborg will be featured in the movie, leading into the Justice League film.

Entertainment Weekly reports: “Gal Gadot plays Wonder Woman, and she has a major supporing role in this movie, but there are other characters like Aquaman, The Flash, Cyborg who turn up in kind of smaller roles — more cameo-oriented. Now that was done as a way of setting up the fact that all of these characters exist in one shared universe.”

Zack Snyder Talks Batman Vs. Superman, Justice League, Wonder Woman & Killing Zod

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24558:]]

The April issue of Wired Magazine features an interview with Batman Vs. Superman director Zack Snyder where Snyder talks Man of Steel, Bruce Wayne, Justice League and Wonder Woman.

The Superman Home Page posted a few highlights:

On killing of Zod in Man of Steel:

“To me, the killing of Zod is not as big a deal as the destruction of Metropolis. It’s important that these movies have consequences, that there is collateral damage. In Batman v Superman I wanted to show how Bruce Wayne feels when reduced to a sideline sitter. Batman is frightened by his impotence in the face of that.”

On the superpowers of the Justice League characters:

We’ve been strict with our rules. What they can do – Batman, Superman, Flash, Cyborg – we really are hard on ourselves because we want all those things to have a reality, a mythological grounding.

On Wonder Woman:

“Female empowerment is a thing I’ve gone after in all my films. They all have strong female representation. It’s about time Wonder Woman was represented correctly.”

George Miller Rumored To Produce Justice League; Amber Heard As Mera

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24395:]]

A casting call website is stating George Miller is on board the Justice League movie as a producer, and also that Amber Heard has been cast as Mera.

Acting Audtions has a Justice League casting call listed for actors and extras where the movie has a working title of “Caveman.” The credits list George Miller as a producer along with Charles Roven, Deborah Snyder, Doug Mitchell, Barry Osborn and Dan Lin. Executive producers stated are Wesley Coller and Geoff Johns, with the script by Chris Terrio.

The site even has a description of the Justice League movie as: “Earth’s greatest heroes are assembled to form the Justice League, to combat a threat beyond each member’s capabilities.”

Miller, who was previously behind the defunct 2008 Justice League Mortal movie, was also rumored at one time to be directing a Man of Steel sequel and confirmed DC talks. Zack Snyder also left the door open for Miller to be involved in the DCCU.

Amber Heard has previously been rumored for Mera, Aquaman’s love interest.

Justice League – Part 1 has a November 17, 2017 release; Zack Snyder is currently in pre-production and starts filming April 11th in the UK.

Snyder recently tweeted out the following image alongside Jason Momoa with the Justice League costumes teased in the background in additon to what is thought to be Mera concept art (to our left of Snyder).

Justice League Movie Starts Filming In April

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24395:]]

Contrary to all the Batman Vs. Superman rumors, Justice League is still moving forward, and it starts filming in April.

EW.com reveals Zack Snyder stars shooting Justice League on April 11th.

“The idea that we could begin to boot up a Justice League concept was a cool thing,” Snyder said. “It was a little bit of an ‘about time’ moment, and I don’t blame [the studio] for feeling that way, because it’s a long time coming. But I do feel like it’s a little bit of a creative hurdle. It seems like an easy thing to do at first glance, the idea that, ‘Oh, we just get the rest of the superheroes in there.’ But you have to [establish] a world where they can exist.”

Justice League will start filming two weeks following the March 25th debut of Batman Vs. Superman. The article notes Snyder is already prepping Justice League in the UK.

“The studio really wants us to try and pace it up, as far as —now we have an idea where we’re going,” Snyder said.

Batman Vs. Superman hits March 25; Suicide Squad on August 5, and Wonder Woman gets released June 23, 2017.

Justice League – Part 1 has a November 17, 2017 release date.

Update: Zack Snyder has released an image of himself with Jason Momoa and the Justice League costumes.

Now Batman Vs. Superman Compared To Man of Steel: “Suits Nervous”

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:24372:]]

We’ve all heard the rumor WB is worried about Batman Vs. Superman; then we all heard about the perceived notion WB is concerned about the popcorn Marvel movie audience, and now Latino Review is adding their two cents.

According to the site, “concerned” is a better word than “worried,” which makes sense as Batman Vs. Superman is a new movie with a super high budget.

It’s said the budget for Batman Vs. Superman has “ballooned” north of $400 million, and for the movie to be considered a success, it would have to make more than a billion dollars at the box office.

According to an “insider,” problems could arise with Batman Vs. Superman as – similar to Man of Steel – it could split the audience. It’s said Man of Steel wasn’t the “universal crowd pleaser” WB wanted, which is a “trend” that could continue with Batman Vs. Superman.

It’s further said Batman Vs. Superman may not be for everyone or as easily accessible, which is making the suits a bit nervous. It’s said Zack Snyder may have made “another difficult film,” with DC having to keep a close eye on what works and what doesn’t.

Regarding the comparison to Man of Steel, as I previously pointed out, Man of Steel started out with a bang but ended with a whimper as it only made $668 million – and not the billion WB hoped for – which is why Batman was added to the sequel.

Latino Review goes on to state Justice League is “absolutely happening” following Batman Vs. Superman, and that the solo Ben Affleck Batman movie is not replacing Justice League‘s release date (JL is already in production).

Depending on how well Batman Vs. Superman does or does not do, it’s said the Justice League movie universe could end up getting retooled.

WB Worried About Batman Vs. Superman Because of Popcorn Marvel Movies?

Batman Vs. Superman Final Trailer

A couple of days ago saw word hit that Warner Bros. is worried about Batman Vs. Superman and the Justice League universe.

Now it’s being said the blame is not with the quality of the movie itself, but with the audience.

According to Batman On Film, WB is indeed worried about how audiences will react to Batman Vs. Superman and how the film will perform at the box office (isn’t any studio when a new movie is coming out?).

The site goes on to suggest WB may be nervous that since Batman vs. Superman isn’t “popcorn fluff” (meaning a Marvel film) that audiences won’t understand the movie, but the site states not to worry because the Christopher Nolan Batman movies definitely weren’t “popcorn” and they were a big success (note: Nolan apparently isn’t involved with Batman Vs. Superman at all).

Regarding the previous rumor that stated a new standalone Ben Affleck Batman movie could replace Justice League, Batman On Film says they can’t shoot that rumor down as obviously if Batman Vs. Superman doesn’t perform up to expectations, things could change (which is why Batman was added to the Man of Steel sequel — more on that below).

It’s further said there is a group at WB who want Batman to be the focus and are concerned about Batman being a part of a team-up film.

I can also corroborate what they say about Batman being added to the Man of Steel sequel as I’ve been told WB wanted Man of Steel to hit a billion dollars at the box office. Immediately following Man of Steel‘s opening, there was talk of a straight up sequel wih Superman being the focus; however, as Man of Steel‘s box office performance slowed, that’s when Batman came into the picture.

I was told essentially a Man of Steel sequel script was combined with a Batman script for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. We do know that Zack Snyder and Ben Affleck brought Chris Terrio on board to rewrite the David Goyer script, which I am guessing was the Man of Steel sequel. We also know Lex Luthor’s part was rewritten to accomodate Jesse Eisenberg (a younger Lex Luthor instead of Goyer’s older version).

All that said – again like any other movie – if Batman Vs. Superman performs well at the box office, all the rumors will be proven just to be speculation and nothing more.
