Superman and Batman Team up!

 

I'm not a fan of Superior either. I've always been pretty into Amazing Spidey and that Universe. I'm opposite to Deeser though, the whole Spider Island was fantastic and was actually a setup for the mind wipe and death of Parker, which was for me a more powerful death than Ultimate Parker's. I'd held hope they'd have Superior off soon enough but it's still going so I'll get back to these new one off stories with Amazing they've started now :)

I've been enjoying Superior Spiderman, Otto's cockiness as PP and SM is good fun. It has the odd lame issue here and there but overall I think its pretty good.

More rumours abound for Batman v Superman as it appears the studio is looking at Denzel Washington, Idris Elba or Colin Salmon to take on the role of Lex Luthor.
The rumour mill keeps turning as Batman v Superman / Man of Steel 2 veers ever more towards being a straight-up Justice League movie.

 

The latest is that Denzel Washington is still up for a role in the movie, but would be fighting on the side of justice as the John Stewart version of Green Lantern.

 

Read about it here.

I don't think we're ready for the Justice League. I think they need to re-establish Batman in a world with superpowers and aliens and other superheroes. It can't be Nolan's Batman just bumping into Superman one day, I think they need more of a build up.

Dwayne Johnson has now confirmed he is in talks with DC in relation to an undisclosed role.

 

It's not been confirmed whether it is for this movie (but it does seem to be the only DC movie currently in any kind of production), so the speculation is running rampant. Doomsday is the favourite, but The Rock has always said he would love to play Lobo, so take from that what you will.

He's bald and black, no doubt he's Lex Luthor.
From the article I linked to -:

 

"... and if we’re going by the Superman: The Animated Series version of things, Johnson is not too far away in stature (or skin tone) from that show’s Lex Luthor."

I thought you'd be stoked for Lobo to get featured in a movie.

 

They could never do the Main Man justice without a hard R rating. There has to be blood and guts and boobs and murderdeathkill... and I really don't like The Rock's acting. I think he's super overrated. I'd accept Jason Momoa maybe but not Dwayne.

 

 

He looks nothing like the dude from the Daily Show!?

 

I see what you did.

Jesse Eisenberg has been cast as Lex Luthor, while Jeremy Irons is our new Alfred.

 

Warner Bros. Pictures announced today that Jesse Eisenberg has been set to star as Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons will play Alfred in the upcoming Zack Snyder untitled Superman/Batman film. The dual announcement was made today by Greg Silverman, President, Creative Development and Worldwide Production, and Sue Kroll, President, Worldwide Marketing and International Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures.

 

Snyder stated, “Lex Luthor is often considered the most notorious of Superman’s rivals, his unsavory reputation preceding him since 1940. What’s great about Lex is that he exists beyond the confines of the stereotypical nefarious villain. He’s a complicated and sophisticated character whose intellect, wealth and prominence position him as one of the few mortals able to challenge the incredible might of Superman. Having Jesse in the role allows us to explore that interesting dynamic, and also take the character in some new and unexpected directions.”

 

The director added, “As everyone knows, Alfred is Bruce Wayne’s most trusted friend, ally and mentor, a noble guardian and father figure. He is an absolutely critical element in the intricate infrastructure that allows Bruce Wayne to transform himself into Batman. It is an honor to have such an amazingly seasoned and gifted actor as Jeremy taking on the important role of the man who mentors and guides the guarded and nearly impervious façade that encapsulates Bruce Wayne.”

 

Eisenberg received Academy Award®, Golden Globe Award, Screen Actors Guild Award® and BAFTA Award nominations for his starring role as Mark Zuckerberg in David Fincher’s “The Social Network.” He also starred in Woody Allen’s “To Rome with Love” and Louis Letterier’s “Now You See Me.” He next appears in “The Double” and “Night Moves.”

 

Irons won the Academy Award® for his portrayal of Claus von Bülow in “Reversal of Fortune.” His work in the film also garnered him a Golden Globe Award. He won an Emmy Award and a Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award® for his performance in the TV miniseries “Elizabeth I,” opposite Helen Mirren, and recently starred on the small screen as Rodrigo Borgia in Neil Jordan’s highly acclaimed Showtime series “The Borgias,” for which Irons earned a Golden Globe nomination. He was recently nominated for a SAG Award® for the PBS Great Performances television miniseries “The Hollow Crown,” for his performance as Henry IV.

 

Snyder’s film stars Henry Cavill, reprising his role as Superman/Clark Kent, Ben Affleck as Batman/Bruce Wayne, and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman/Diana Prince. The film also reunites “Man of Steel” stars Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane.

 

The new film is currently being 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.

 

The film is set to open worldwide on May 6, 2016, and is based on Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster, Batman characters created by Bob Kane, and Wonder Woman created by William Moulton Marston, appearing in comic books published by DC Entertainment.
