AMC theatre chain have released the running time for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and it's coming in at 2 hours and 31 minutes.
The length of the film is not suprising from what we've seen in the trailers, considering they have to fit in our two titular heroes individual story arcs, their inevitable throw down and of course teaming up to take on Doomsday, not to mention introducing several other new characters including Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman and Jeremy Iron’s Alfred, plus cameos from Ezra Miller’s Flash and Jason Momoa’s Aquaman.
This running time will see it going 9 minutes longer than Marvel’s similarly packed ensemble film Avengers: Age Of Ultron, and 8 minutes longer than 2013’s Man Of Steel.
This also makes it the longest running time on a super hero feature since 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises which came in at 2 hours 45 minutes.
I think we all have our fingers crossed for a good one here; I for one will be hoping and praying with baited breathe for 151 minutes of delight when DC's big hitters finally share the screen come March 25th.
