The Licensing Expo is getting underway today in Las Vegas, and just before the doors opened they allowed some members of the press inside to snap some photos of the promotion materials on the floor. One such item just happens to be the new Batmobile, and Collider was able to grab a number of high-resolution images of the intimidating car and also grab a fact sheet with more information on the vehicle.
This is our best look at the Batmobile yet, and as you can see it’s fully equipped for Snyder’s uneasy and treacherous world that his versions of the DC superheroes inhabit.
Take a look at the official description and specs of the vehicle below, followed by images. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens in theaters on March 25, 2016.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is the highly-anticipated action adventure starring Henry Cavill in the role of Clark Kent/Superman, and Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman. The film 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. Jason Momoa will also be making an appearance as Aquaman.
Single-handedly designed and fabricated in near complete seclusion by The Batman, this infamous pursuit and capture vehicle has earned its reputation as the apex predator on the mean streets of Gotham City. Over powered with an unmatched hybrid of prototype military and civilian performance technologies, this top machine has been estimated to reach speeds of up to 205 MPH. The Batmobile’s imposing defense capabilities, supported by stolen Wayne Industries technologies, have been integrated with the latest in covert military grade armaments, stealth and active protection systems.Facts:– Twin .50 caliber retractable machine gun turret– Fully armored– Stealth-capable– Active Protection Systems/Anti-ballistics– 20 ft. long/12 ft. wide– 7000 lbs.
Collider has just released the seemingly first official story synopsis for Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice. Though it’s understandably fairly light on specific plot details, it does confirm that a villain/villains will take advantage of the superhero showdown and launch some kind of global attack of their own. This “new threat” is most likely engineered by Lex Luthor, who may have had a hand in setting the Dark Knight and the Man Of Steel at each other’s throats in the first place. But that’s just a theory! Have a read of the synopsis for yourselves and see what you think.
“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.”

Surprisingly, in comparison with last week’s DC Delights this week’s is a little less intense. As this week’s DC Delights is smaller and more bite sized. Anyway, this week we’re talking Arrow & The Flash writers ready themselves for their next seasons, Gotham season 2 gets season regular, and a bunch of other TV news. On the movie side, we have more Suicide Squad stuff, mainly BTS photos, Momoa gives director a thumbs up, updates on the cancelled George Miller’s Justice League, and much much more! Then some potential spoilers at the end, hint hint that is your first warning!
SO let us dive right in!
TV NEWS
The writers of both Arrow and The Flash have begun to map out the fourth and second seasons respectively. For The Flash writers they will be tackling how to introduce more speedsters and more villains, on the other hand Arrow writers will be meddling with the fourth season villain, Damian Darhk, and many other story arcs and more!
First day back in the writers room. Lots of fun stuff. Bring it on, Season 2! #TheFlash
Nicholas D’Agosto made his debut fairly early on in Gotham’s first season last year – popping up in episodes 9 and 10 as a key element in the mid-season finale. Sadly the actor, who plays the duplicitous ‘Harvey Dent’ on the show, only returned for a single episode in the second half of the season. Fans of the character will therefore no doubt be happy to learn that D’Agosto has been bumped up to regular status for next season, per the actor’s Twitter account:
Thank you to all of you @Gotham and #HarveyDent fans for your enthusiasm. I can’t wait to join more of the fun as a regular in Season 2!

Punisher: War Zone and Green Street Hooligans director Lexi Alexander was talking to fans on Twitter in a quick Q&A, and she made a surprising reveal when one of them asked if Marvel have been in touch to ask her to direct one of their shows on online streaming service Netflix. “They have not. But I’m excited to direct Arrow in August. ;-)”
Victor Garber, who plays the Dr. Martin Stein half of Firestorm, revealed that his other half, Robbie Amell, will appear in the season two premiere of The CW’s “The Flash,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.
“Robbie and I will be joined on the first episode of the (next) season of ‘The Flash,’ and then we’ll see what happens,” Garber told THR.
Garber is also slated to appear as a series regular in the “Flash”/”Arrow” spinoff, “Legends of Tomorrow,” alongside Caity Lotz, Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell and Brandon Routh. Yet there have been no reports that say Amell will join him in the show, leaving Firstorm’s status — at least the Ronnie Raymond half — in question. THR says Amell is “expected to make an appearance,” but not as a series regular.
Garber also teased that The CW had larger plans for the spinoff beyond its initial 15-episode season, saying, “They [CW] aren’t going to introduce a limited series. This isn’t HBO. They want the Full Monty.”
“The Flash” & Arrow returns to The CW and Gotham airs on Fox this fall, with “Legends of Tomorrow” slated to debut in early 2016.
Movie News
Jason Momoa is super stoked to be working with James Wan on Aquaman. Sure grossing $1.4 billion USD and counting on Fast & Furious 7 certainly helped Wan raise his profile and officially land the directing gig after being rumored for months. Wan will also work with Kurt Johnstad (300, Act of Valor) on developing the script. Reports state that though Wan signed on to helm both Robotech and Aquaman at the same time, Wan will tackle Aquaman first after completing work on The Conjuring 2: The Endfield Experiment . Wan should complete his work on The Conjuring 2 by Spring 2016, giving him plenty of time to tackle Aquaman for its July 27, 2018 release date.
With cameras surrounding the action packed scene Batman actor Ben Affleck’s stunt double leapt atop the moving vehicle and endeavoured to tear a hole in the roof. Meanwhile, The Joker – a stunt double stand-in for Jared Leto – laughed maniacally while driving at speed through the empty city street. Onlookers were also treated to another glimpse of the Batmobile, with the car cruising close by shortly after the action packed scene concluded.
While Suicide Squad director David Ayer has declared that exterior principal photography has been completed, new photos have surfaced with the cast and crew in between takes in Toronto. In addition to a first look at actress Cara Delevingne, who’s playing June Moone/the Enchantress, we also have yet another look at Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Captain Boomerang), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag), Jay Hernandez (EL Diablo), and Karen Fukuhara (Katana) all sporting some bruises in full costume after shooting a subway station scene.
Lastly here are some random BTS photos I have found online.
Directed by David Ayer from his script, Suicide Squad stars Will Smith (Deadshot), Joel Kinnaman (Rick Flag), Jared Leto (the Joker), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn), Jai Courtney (Boomerang), Viola Davis (Amanda Waller), Cara Delevingne (Enchantress), Jessie Eisenberg (Lex Luthor), and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Killer Croc), with Raymond Olubawale (King Shark), Jay Hernandez, Ike Barinholtz, Jim Parrack, Adam Beach, and Scott Eastwood. The film releases on August 5, 2016!
There have already been a couple of live-action Swamp Thing movies, but although they’re campy fun, they are most definitely not a good representation of the the layered, interesting DC character. There’s been talk of Swamp Thing appearing in Guillermo del Toro’s Dark Universe movie (don’t hold your breath for that one), but short of that or another current DCCU outing it seems the best chance we had for decent take on the Earth Elemental came and went with the aborted 2010 project, which would have been produced by Joel Silver and written by Vincenzo Natali.
The latter has now posted the first four pages of his screenplay, and the direction the movie was going should be obvious to fans of Alan Moore’s acclaimed run.
It’s pretty much unheard of (unless you count Dame Judi Dench’s M returning for the Daniel Craig era Bond flicks) for an actor to reprise a role once the movie they originally appeared in has been rebooted, but that doesn’t stop fans wishing it would happen from time to time. Sure it’d mean continuity/canon issues – but who wouldn’t like to see J.K. Simmons back as J.J. Jameson in Marvel’s new Spider-Man movie for example? The same could be said for Mark Strong’s Sinestro, who was praised as one of the only positive aspects of Warner Bros.’ first Green Lantern attempt.
In an interview with MTV, Strong says he was proud of what he achieved with the performance, but doesn’t think there’s be a place for him in the DCCU as that character.
Despite being a huge comic book fan, Kevin Smith has never helmed a superhero flick, and while speaking to KPCC host John Horn at the Produced By conference in LA he admits that he’s not likely to ever get the opportunity to. But, he says if he did he’d like to make a movie based on The Question.
Smith’s idea would put a “noir-ish thriller” spin on the DC comics vigilante who uses a special substance to erase his features and a binary gas to recolour his cloths and hair. “I always thought if you were in an alley and f—ing Batman showed up you’d be like, ‘Oh f—, Batman.’ But if a dude shows up with no features and starts punching you, you would probably kill yourself in fear,” he explained to THR.
POTENTIAL SPOILERS FROM THIS POINT ON
After the first official trailer for Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice was released, fans were very curious about the shots that appeared to depict the Dark Knight brandishing a rifle of some sort. Obviously Batman and guns don’t exactly have a very good relationship (though it’s worth noting that he has actually used them in the comics when the situation called for it) so it seemed like an unusual choice of weapon for the character. Well, turns out it wasn’t a sniper rifle, but some sort of Kryptonite-laced spear!
This information comes from Heroic Hollywood, who choose not to go into any more detail in regards to how Batman comes by the Kryptonite, or how he uses it against Superman (we assume he… spears him?) but that one tidbit alone makes for some interesting speculation. We know Bats will eventually suit-up in that very formidable looking Dark Knight Returns-inspired armor, so perhaps the spear is just a precursor to that and one of his first attempts to bring down the Man of Steel?
Heroic Hollywood again claims to have some more details on the Dark Knight’s role in the Suicide Squad movie, and it definitely sounds like we’ll be getting classic Batman based on this scene description:
In short, he goes and pays Amanda Waller a visit. Batman BREAKS into her massive security prison. In fact…he’s already inside Amanda Waller’s office waiting for her in the shadows when she appears. The guards are clueless. Batman has a bone to pick with Waller. You see Batman is totally against the concept behind the Suicide Squad, in fact he warns Waller that he will hold her personally responsible for any innocents The Joker & the rest of the Suicide Squad kill. A warning so stern that he has to visit Waller personally to deliver the message.
There you have it folks another DC Delights completed, and now I hope you are fully up to date on all things DC! Goodbye and enjoy your weekend!
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice will be in theaters on March 25th, 2016; Suicide Squad on August 5th, 2016; Wonder Woman – June 23rd, 2017; Justice League – November 17th, 2017; The Flash – March 23rd, 2018; Aquaman – July 27th, 2018; Shazam – April 5th, 2019; Justice League 2 – June 14th, 2019; Cyborg – April 3rd, 2020; Green Lantern – June 19th, 2020.
Welcome your faces to the first edition of DC Delights where I talk about all things DC movie news. This edition I talk Suicide Squad, Batman V Superman, Batfleck in Suicide Squad and MORE!
Variety has learned that Alex Meraz has joined the cast of Warner Bros. and DC’s “Suicide Squad.” Pic is currently in production in Toronto and stars Will Smith, Margot Robbie and Jared Leto. David Ayer is directing the pic. Meraz’s role is unknown. Besides “Twilight,” Meraz’s roles include appearing opposite Jamie Dornan in the British miniseries “New Worlds.”
There’s been quite a bit of Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice concept art finding its way online recently, and the latest piece comes courtesy of former Latino Review scooper El Mayimbe. It’s been confirmed that the craft we see opening fire (a trigger happy Batman?) in the teaser is indeed the Batwing, and this new artwork gives us a much better look at the design. It’s certainly… different anyway!
Will Smith has been snapped on the set of Suicide Squad, thanks to Just Jared, and the costume he’s wearing has already created quite a stir on social media. It’s worth noting though that Deadshot appears to have both eyes here, so this could be a flashback to a time before he was a killer. The presence of a young girl seems to indicate that anyway, and it looks like they’re shopping together. Either way, the Gotham City police car confirms where these scenes are set, so that too raises some interesting questions about the movie. For example, could it be that this will be an origin story for the character?
Regardless, this look for Deadshot isn’t too much of a departure from Batman mythos as it’s clearly influenced by animated movie, Batman: Gotham Knight. Of course, we don’t know if he’s wearing this outfit for a single scene, will don a variation of it later in the movie, or might have something altogether different as part of the “skwad”.
Just Jared spotted Jared Leto keeping his bright green hair hidden under a hat while stepping out on Wednesday afternoon (April 29) in the SoHo neighborhood of New York City.
The 43-year-old actor was spotted with a female friend and later was joined by a different female pal.
It seems the success of the latest Fast & Furious movie has put directer James Wan at the top of quite a few lists. Deadline report that he’s the man Sony want to kick-start their new Robotech franchise, and reckon he is in early talks to do just that. The site also acknowledges that Wan has a lot of offers on the table, but hear that “he and Sony are going to try and make this work.”
As we knew already, one of those offers was Warner Bros’ solo Aquaman movie, and The Wrap’s Jeff Sneider is hearing that Wan has agreed to helm it after his next project, The Conjuring 2. If that’s the case, it’ll obviously be a while before cameras roll on Robotech, so it’s entirely possible something will have to give here.
James Wan is gonna direct AQUAMAN after CONJURING 2, from what I hear. Warner Bros. ain’t waiting. Sony will have to wait until, like, 2019.
If you want Batman to show up in Suicide Squad, well you are in luck as eTalk have snapped some BTS shots that show Ben Affleck’s Batman and some Gotham police cars! SO clearly he will show!
These images were posted on the Blu-ray forums, and as you can see they provide our most detailed look yet at the armoured Bat-suit that was glimpsed in the recent trailer. Rumor has it that the Dark Knight (Ben Affleck) will be sporting a third suit of some kind to aid him in his battle against the Man Of Steel (Henry Cavill), but we haven’t seen any evidence of that…yet!
THR has posted a report on the state of Warner Bros.’ budding DC cinematic universe, and by the sounds of things they might be in a bit of trouble. The main problem seems to be the lack of any one person steering the ship and making sure everything is being set up to gel together. The closest thing they have to this type of figure is probably Zack Snyder, but while the director is said to be broadly overseeing the journey towards Justice League, he’s a little busy with Batman V Superman to give much else his full attention. Because of this WB has apparently adopted more of a “filmmaker-driven approach”, with David Ayer, for example, being given full creative control over Suicide Squad.
This isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Although Marvel’s output syncs up very well as a shared universe, their movies have also been criticised for seeming a bit generic, or “samey”. WB’s approach is definitely a riskier one, but it may ultimately yield better individual films.
Even if that’s the case though, it doesn’t sound like anyone THR spoke to about this believes it’s a smart move. We already knew the studio had hired multiple writers to work on competing scripts for Wonder Woman, and it looks like they’ve followed suit with Aquaman. Apparently Will Beall, Jeff Nichols and Kurt Johnstad are all penning separate takes on the King of Atlantis. This approach was described as “throwing shit against the wall to see what stuck” by one insider.
GETTING INTO RUMOUR TERRITORY
The reaction to the first official image of Jared Leto as The Joker was divisive to say the least. The drastically different look which included metallic teeth and tattoos upset some fans, with many convincing themselves that the tattoos all over his body were there just to celebrate the character’s 75th anniversary. That’s a pretty stupid theory, right? Well, perhaps not according to JoBlo.com.
The site’s source apparently tells them that “the Joker image everybody is talking about isn’t a genuine image and doesn’t match up with how he looks on set.” Hang on a second though, the image was Tweeted out by DC Comics, Suicide Squad director David Ayer, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice director Zack Snyder, and a number of others, so it’s hardly a fake! What it may have been though is an attempt to trick fans as “He’s missing scars (which we reported on a while back as mementos from his history with Batman) and the grill/teeth are a kind of WTF addition to the image. Our source elaborates that he’s scarred on his back and arms and his skin is definitely whiter than what we see below. The tattoos are brand new if even real, and may have been added to cover up the areas where his scars will be.” Nope, I’m not buying that for a second!
Warner Bros. must have known the level of coverage that the first image of The Joker in the DC Cinematic Universe would receive, and I don’t buy them putting out one with a bunch of fake additions like the teeth and tattoos.
Man of Steel didn’t really tease a shared DC Cinematic Universe, but Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad look set to change that in a major way. Latino-Review have dropped some very interesting details about the ties between those two movies today, and it turns out that Jared Leto will be shooting scenes for both while in Toronto. They reveal that it will be a flashback scene which depicts The Joker beating Jason Todd, a.k.a. Robin, to death (presumably with a crowbar).
That will explain why he’s behind bars and may even tie in with those rumours we heard a long time ago about Batman giving up crime fighting until Superman enters the scene. Robin’s costume will be on display in the Batcave, and the site theorises that that could be what triggers the flashback. They also reveal that Bruce Wayne/Batman will be making an appearance in Suicide Squad, with the Batmobile reportedly on site in Toronto too.
Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice will be in theaters on March 25th, 2016; Suicide Squad on August 5th, 2016; Wonder Woman – June 23rd, 2017; Justice League – November 17th, 2017; The Flash – March 23rd, 2018; Aquaman – July 27th, 2018; Shazam – April 5th, 2019; Justice League 2 – June 14th, 2019; Cyborg – April 3rd, 2020; Green Lantern – June 19th, 2020.

A new small breakdown of the film’s central conflict, “why are Batman and Superman embroiled in a fight?”, has been released. Director Zack Snyder‘s mega movie doesn’t open for another solid year but Badass Digest details how this film differs from The Dark Knight Returns (which has Superman working for the government and gives Batman the advantage over him):
In Batman v Superman Superman is no lackey of the government; if anything many of the world’s governments distrust the guy. But it is Superman who goes to Gotham and starts the confrontation… at the behest of Lex Luthor. And unlike The Dark Knight Returns, Superman comes out swinging, pulverizing the Batmobile with one punch. Why would Superman do Lex Luthor’s bidding? What is Lex hoping to accomplish? That would be spoiling. But know that when the fight is over, Batman will be able to point to Superman and say, “He started it!”
That “he started it” business could make things exceptionally hard on Superman considering the fact that his last big brawl in Metropolis involved a considerable amount of collateral damage.
Also thanks to Entertainment Weekly, we finally have an official (after plenty of fan-made efforts) version of Aquaman’s character portrait minus the “Unite The Seven” tag. It obviously doesn’t reveal too much more than what we’ve already seen.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens on March 25, 2016 and stars Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Holly Hunter, Scoot McNairy and Jeremy Irons alongside Jesse Eisenberg.
Latino-Review’s El Mayimbe has struck again! After bringing us three big Suicide Squad-related scoops, concerning the villains, Deathstroke, and the Joker, this morning he’s dropped some serious information about how Ben Affleck’s Batman plays into the upcoming David Ayer-directed film!
According to Mayimbe’s sources, prior to the events of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, the Dark Knight is considered a sort of urban legend, a sort of boogeyman that criminals fear and that the government absolutely despises. Additionally, up to that point, the Joker is actually the only person to have ever come face-to-face and/or met with the Caped Crusader for an extended period of time, possibly due to him murdering one of Batman’s sidekicks, which makes the Clown Prince a vital asset for Viola Davis’ Amanda Waller.
Due to his propensity to live in the shadows, Batman has managed to become a priority target for Amanda Waller and sometime during Suicide Squad, her team will be seen watching footage of the Bat in action. Mayimbe also teases a bit of dialogue that reveals that Waller sees him as the key to tracking down all “the supers.” This would mean that Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and possibly others will presumably become known to the public after Batman v. Superman.
Whether or not Ben Affleck makes an appearance is still unknown, but everything else about the new Batman sounds pretty great. What do you guys think? Sound off with your thoughts below!
A secret government agency recruits imprisoned supervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions in exchange for clemency.
Henry Cavill was present at a BAFTA party in Los Angeles, and Variety reporter Ramin Setoodeh has sent out some Tweets following his chat with the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice star. First off all, consider those Batman v Superman: Enter The Knight rumours 100% debunked as the British actor has confirmed what we all already knew deep down; the movie isn’t being split into two.
There are also comments about how Cavill feels about seeing Ben Affleck bring the Caped Crusader to the big screen and sheds some light on just how brutal the fight scenes between the two got. He also diplomatically shares his thoughts on the chances of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice topping The Avengers

According to BadassDigest who have apparently seen the script of “Batman V Superman; Dawn of Justice” have given us some information about the movie itself. The following may contain some mild spoilers, so this is your warning!
In the BadassDigest article it contains this: “If they were to cut it in half, I guess they could cut it at the big Superman and Batman fight, which comes about halfway through the film. But that fight isn’t huge, and there isn’t enough action in the first half of the movie to make that a whole film all its own. And then there’s so much action in the second half as Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman battle Doomsday in Metropolis and Gotham that you’d end up with two very, very lopsided movies. It works as an escalation in the full script, but without major additions it seems limp.
There’s one more thing about this, and it could be a small spoiler: Ray Fisher, who plays Cyborg, said he only had scenes with Ben Affleck. I’m pretty sure Cyborg is only in this movie as a cameo, and that’s at the very, very end as Batman assembles the Justice League. If they were cutting this movie in two it seems likely that Fisher’s part would have been beefed up at least a little bit.”
So yeah it is a lot of information to take on board but it does gives us an idea of what we can see on the big screen! What do you think of this? Comment down below!
