First Official Image And Synopsis Released From CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER
We also exclusively revealed the new suit for Captain America in the film but Disney made us take it down. What can you do? However, it's confirmed that Black Widow will have a lead role in the film and that Robert Redford is playing a Marvel Comics character named Alexander Pierce.

VIDEO GAMES: ARKHAM ORIGINS Officially Announced
It's official, a new Batman: Arkham game is coming but it's not being made by RockSteady. Instead the game is being made in-house by Warner Bros. Games Montreal. But fear not, they're using the same modified game engine and were in constant contact with RockSteady throughout the project. The game is a prequel, where a young Batman makes mistakes and 8 assassins (led by Deathstroke) are out to terminate The Dark Knight on Christmas. In the original article, RockSteady confirms they are working on a 'secret' project which is thought to be a Silver Age Justice League film.

This is a sharp left-turn from the philosophy of Christopher Nolan who kept other heroes out of his Batman films. There's going to be plenty of easter eggs says screenwriter David S. Goyer. Should these clues lead up to a World's Finest film or Justice League adaptation?
