Is This Who Will Play 'Robin' In BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE?
A while ago we heard rumors that the Boy Wonder would feature in Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice in some capacity, and this was confirmed by a shot of the defaced Robin monument in the recent trailer. Do we now know which actor will be playing him?...
Judging by the above shot from the new Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice trailer, the Joker is going to enjoy taunting the Dark Knight by scrawling on the Robin suit monument in the Batcave. Fans have come to the conclusion that this must be because the Clown Prince Of Crime had something to do with the Boy Wonder's death, and there'd be a good possibility we'd see this via flashback in the movie. Now none of that has been confirmed of course, but we do now have a hot rumor that the character will definitely feature, and we might just know who'll be playing him.
According to Heroic Hollywood, it'll be none other than the director's son, Eli Snyder. If he looks familiar it's because he also played the young Leonidas in 300 and the young Rorschach in Watchmen. Snyder Jr. is now 6'0 foot tall Varsity athlete, so would certainly be a good physical fit the role of Dick Grayson, Tim Drake, or whichever incarnation of Robin is used. Chances are if this is true it will be a very small part, but what would you think about the casting?
