Jeremy Irons Says BATMAN V SUPERMAN Script Is "Amazing"

The acclaimed English actor Jeremy Irons, who will be playing the part of Batman's iconic butler Alfred Pennyworth, attended the Lucca Film Festival in Italy, and had this to say about the much anticipated Zack Synder-helmed Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice: 

"The next Batman has an amazing screenplay", Irons told reporters. "It's a blockbuster written from the heart."

Over a year ago, Academy-Award winner Chris Terrio (Argo) replaced David S Goyer as screenwriter for the film, so hopefully we can expect some great things from the script.  


Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice arrives in US theaters on March 25, 2016.  It is directed by Zack Snyder and written by Chris Terrio, with story credits for Snyder and David S. Goyer.  The film stars Henry Cavill as Superman, Ben Affleck as Batman, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Ray Fisher as Cyborg and Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth.

"The next Batman has an amazing screenplay",

Isn't it more of a Batman & Superman movie or is it just what Irons says "The next Batman movie".

I bet we will get a trailer after AOU! Why you ask I think Snyder is being respectful of Marvel and in turn Marvel is doing the same.

I pretty much hated Man of Steel, but I love me some Batman. Hoping Snyder errs more toward Watchmen and less toward Man of Steel.

And give Cavill some damn dialogue this time. He was mute for most of MOS.

@thebearjew

Actually he has been an anti-hero before...

And The Rock pretty much said he's going to start out as a villain.

I don't think they'd show a trailer to one of the most hyped up CBM's at Wondercon.

My guess is that it's going to pop up with Mad Max or at CinemaCon like the 3rd MOS trailer did before showing up online a few hours later.

Though people have been reporting that the BvS title has been translated in other languages, the same thing that happened to the Dark Knight Rises with the first teaser showing up a week or two after that change so...

To me Superman is a good parallel to Captain America. Both should embody ideals, although I've always thought Cap was the more critical of the two. Superman has always been too pure. Chris Evans plays Cap perfectly, but so far, I'm not sold on Cavill. It's not that I don't think he's a good actor, but the script for MOS sucked. Hard.

One of the many amazing aspects to The Dark Knight Returns is the characterizations of Supes and Batman, and the obvious conflict that arises between them.

I know some people don't like how Superman was portrayed in DKR, as a lackey to Reagan, but it kind of made sense to me. At any rate, it worked so that Superman had a reason to go after Batman.

Great action scenes (Snyder) + Great story (Terrio) = Awesomeness!

Wonder what kind of Alfred he will portray. The classic one or the Earth One version?

@thebearjew Black Adam is totally an anti-hero. All he want is to protect Kahndaq; his homeland. Good purpose but in the wrong way.
