The Secret Identity Of BATMAN v SUPERMAN's Robin Has Finally Been 100% Officially Confirmed
Zack Snyder made Jimmy Olsen a CIA Agent and then shot him in the head, but has he changed Robin's backstory in a similarly shocking fashion? Find out once and for all which Boy Wonder The Joker killed.
Common sense (and the comic books) tell us that the Robin who was murdered by The Joker in the DC Films Universe is Jason Todd, but with Zack Snyder...well, you never know! There have been many hints about this Boy Wonder being Jason in the past of course, but no one involved with the movie in any sort of official capacity has come out and directly stated that it's Jason. Well, until now that is.
In the following video from Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood (via Batman-News), the tour guide reveals: "This was one of the big things from Batman v Superman, right across this way. The Jason Todd Robin suit. Spray painted on the front ‘Ha ha. The joke’s on you Batman.'" So, that's that then! This is hardly a surprise, but let's be honest, it's nice knowing for sure that Dick Grayson isn't dead.
But he The Joker? Er, let's not reopen that can of worms...
