SPOILERS: Is This Who Jena Malone, Scoot McNairy & More Are Playing In BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE?
A French magazine has profiled the supporting cast of Batman V Superman, and seems to confirm the identity of the characters they play in the process. Click on if you're okay with SPOILERS...
Provided this is legit, the magazine scan below finally confirms which characters will be played by the likes of Scoot McNairy, Jena Malone and Callan Mulvey in Zack Snyder's Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice.
It was rumored that Malone would be playing an incarnation of Robin (most likely Carrie Kelly) for a while before speculation switched to Barbara Gordon/Batgirl, and it seems the latter is true. Chances are we won't see Babs suit up in this movie, but it's nice to know the groundwork has been laid for future DC instalments.
Despite recent rumours to the contrary, it appears Scoot McNairy is playing Jimmy Olsen after all, while Mulvey has also been confirmed as Anatoli Knyazev, AKA KG Beast.
“Following his titanic struggle against General Zod, Metropolis has been razed to the ground and Superman is the most controversial figure in the world. While for many he is still an emblem of hope, a growing number of people consider him a threat to humanity, seeking justice for the chaos he has brought to Earth.
As far as Bruce Wayne is concerned, Superman is clearly a danger to society. He fears for the future of the world with such a reckless power left ungoverned, and so he dons his mask and cape to right Superman’s wrongs. The rivalry between them is furious, fueled by bitterness and vengeance, and nothing can dissuade them from waging this war. However, a dark new threat arises in the form of a third man: one who has a power greater than either of them to endanger the world and cause total destruction.
The superhero stand-off that the world has been waiting for is finally arriving in cinemas, with an all-star cast bringing to life the characters we all love. Zack Snyder (300) returns as director following the huge success of 2013’s Man of Steel, along with Henry Cavill (The Man from U.N.C.L.E.) in the role of Superman. Also starring Ben Affleck (Gone Girl) as Batman, Amy Adams (American Hustle) as Lois Lane, and Gal Gadot (Fast & Furious 7) as Wonder Woman, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is an explosive, action-packed blockbuster that is sure to thrill DC fans everywhere.”
