Finally, fans don't have to make their own versions of the image as a colored version of Affleck's photo wearing the Batsuit was discovered recently. ComicBook.com reported the news, saying that the picture came from the website of director Zack Snyder's production company, Cruel and Unusual Films. ComicBook.com found out that if you scroll over the thumbnail photos of the company's upcoming movies, the colored version of the images will be revealed.
Take a look at the photo below and compare it to the photo above.
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" will serve as DC's "launchpad for its entire Justice League universe of films," Inquisitr reported. Henry Cavill's Superman will star alongside Affleck's Batman.
Aside from Cavill and Affleck, there are also reports about Gal Gadot portraying Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, and Ray Fisher as Victor Stone a.k.a. Cyborg, with The Flash rumored to be played by Scoot McNairy. Cinema Blend reported that "Sucker Punch" actress Jena Malone will give life to Carrie Kelley a.k.a. Robin's female version.
Rumors about McNairy portraying the Flash started when the actor "was spotted on the set of the new Zack Snyder movie sporting a set of chroma key socks," which would probably be used for post-production to make his legs look like he is running at super speed, according to Cinema Blend. The news outlet also added that Amy Adams will reprise her role as Clark Kent/Superman's love interest, Lois Lane. On the other hand, master criminal Lex Luthor will be portrayed by Jesse Eisenberg.
"This is the first time on the big screen that we have seen Superman and Lex portrayed as the same age, so this should definitely make for an interesting match-up," Cinema Blend added. Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane will also reprise their roles as Perry White and Martha Kent, respectively. Bruce Wayne/Batman's loyal butler Alfred Pennyworth will be played by Jeremy Irons, The Hollywood Reporter noted.
Zack Snyder is directing the film, with David Goyer writing the screenplay. Meanwhile, Academy Award winning "Argo" screenwriter Chris Terrio will also write the script, Cinema Blend reported. The official synopsis of the film isn't announced yet, but the title suggests that there will be friction between the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel.
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" will premiere in theaters on March 23, 2016, ComicBook.com reported.
