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.
