The still-untitled Batman/Superman mash-up will be a sequel to last summer’s Man of Steel, with Henry Cavill returning as Superman, and Affleck rebooting The Dark Knight franchise as Batman. The film was originally set for July 2015, but was recently pushed back to May 6, 2016. Some filming of exterior scenes for a football game has already taken place.

That kid is annoyingly unwatchable. This movie is really trying to suck.

I could have sworn that I heard that Bryan Cranston actually was supposed to play Lex Luther.

Maybe it's for a different film.

LOL I thought it was the kid from Escape To Witch Mountain (The 1975 one).

Another jew gets a movie role based on....merit? Nope.

Of course because he's a member of "the tribe".

omg

agree

star trek was a white wash - KHAN is a darker skin type native( see comics, wiki) - by casting BC, they whitewashed it. he was OK - but when you think of KHAn, bc is a strecth.

as for eisenberg - i give up on hollywood - at least cast the role rifght.

joqquin phoenux would ghave been pefect. great - now we have a 21 yr old ll. not going to see this in theatre.

horrible choice, the kid ain't got the chops.

This movie will never happen thats why they've cast these actors and its been pushed back.
