Just days after Latino Review broke the news that Dick Grayson a.k.a Nightwing would be joining his "former sidekick" Batman in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel sequel, The Wrap is now reporting that Warner Bros. is eyeing actor Adam Driver for the part. The 29-year-old thespian is best known for his role on the HBO series Girls, and has appeared in Lincoln and J. Edgar. Though Driver is a "serious" contender to play Nightwing , the source notes that "at least two other actors may be in the mix". Anyhow, It was mentioned that Dick Grayson has "been estranged from Bruce Wayne for years" in Batman Vs. Superman. And as reported earlier this week, actresses Olga Kurylenko, Gal Gadot, and Elodie Yung are in contention for the female lead who's believed to be Wonder Woman. With Zack Snyder during the film, Batman Vs. Superman stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane, and is slated for release July 17, 2015! What do you think?

Between this and those possible candidates for Wonder Woman, Batman Vs. Superman's cast is not looking good. This guy is talented, but Nightwing?! Can't see it.

Is this even MOS 2 anymore? Too many Batman characters being incorporated and WW is in the mix! Sigh. I truly believed this movie would be great. It's direction it's taking tells me it's going to fail. HARD.

Some of you are pricks. Pretty sure night wing isn't defined by his looks. He's handsome in his own way. How about the people calling him ugly post pics of yourselves, see who's ugly than.

I can actually see this happening. The picture that was originally used was absolutely terrible and downright atrocious, he looks better in these pics as opposed to the one where he looked like Adrian Brody who just suffered from a stroke.





Dont know how good his acting is though, never even heard of him.

A six foot three former Marine, Emmy-nominated, guy who worked with Spielberg, Eastwood and the Coen Brothers is being considered to play Nightwing... but no. The fanboys want to comment about his looks. Because they are Abercrombie models. Clearly.
