That awesome Batman opening to Justice League originally had a more comedic tone, according to actor Holt McCallany

by

Justice League has polarized fans, and isn’t exactly leaping-tall-buildings-in-a-single-bound at the box-office. However, one thing that everyone seems to agree on: the opening was awesome. Gotham City felt alive in a way that hasn’t been captured since Tim Burton’s Batman. The colors, dialogue, fight choreography… it simply felt right. Another pleasant surprise was (the EXCELLENT) Mindhunter’s […]

UPDATE: Matt Reeves reportedly eyeing Jake Gyllenhaal as replacement for Ben Affleck in The Batman

by

UPDATE: In his latest video, John Campea is now claiming that Jake Gyllenhaal is being eyed for the role of Batman, and that Matt Reeves is considering two ideas for his trilogy – one which would serve as a prequel to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and the other as a standalone series of […]

Jason Momoa confirms popular Aquaman fan theory from Man of Steel

by

Before the DC Extended Universe, there was simply Man of Steel. A film meant to revive the Superman franchise in the same way that Christopher Nolan breathed new life into Batman. Even early trailers felt a bit like ‘Christopher Nolan Presents Superman’. However, when the film failed to stand on its own critically, Warner Bros. […]

Ray Fisher reveals the villains that he would like to see appear in a Cyborg solo film

by

Justice League is nearly out in theaters, and that means Cyborg is about to be thrust into the mainstream spotlight.

If the character is received well, however, he may very […]

Ben Affleck on why Justice League was more fun to make than Batman v Superman

by

Ben Affleck has had a lot to say regarding the tonal-shift that we will see with Batman in the so-close-to-release Justice League film. A lot of that has to do with Superman, who he views as a martyr, but some of the character changes may be the result of simplyhaving a great cast to play […]

Henry Cavill discusses the tone of the Justice League movie

by

Given that the biggest criticism of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice was the film’s dark tone, it’s no surprise that questions come up concerning the tone of the upcoming Justice League film. And why not? After Zack Snyder stepped down for personal reasons, we were given Joss Whedon as a replacement. Both of these […]

Danny Elfman confirms that he will bring back his classic Batman theme for Justice League

by

The internet all but exploded when news broke that Danny Elfman would be replacing Junkie XL as the composer for Justice League. Which is understandable, as Danny Elfman created one of the most iconic superhero themes of all time. Aside from John Williams’ Superman score, no other piece of comic book music is as memorable as […]

Henry Cavill talks Superman and his importance to the Justice League

by

Superman making a triumphant return in the upcoming Justice League film is cinema’s worst kept secrets in quite some time. Sure, the actor is a non-presence from many press-junkets, and promotional material has him “mysteriously” missing more often than not, but we know he is coming. What we don’t know is how, or when he […]
