Oscar winning actress Holly Hunter is among the many additions to the cast of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, yet we still have no official word on who she’s playing. One rumor suggested that she could be a Leslie Thomkpins-type character, while other reports claim that she is in fact a United States Senator. All that Warner Bros. has said on Hunter’s role is that she is playing a newly created character for the movie. And now, the actress herself discusses her involvement with the film. Speaking with The Wall Street Journal, Hunter had this to say on being a part of such a huge production. “It was really…

Yesterday, a feature on Christopher Nolan included a quote apparently stated by the director regarding post-credits scenes set the internet on fire. Nolan supposedly said that a “real movie” would not use such a device, which has been popularized by Marvel Studios’ films. This explains why Man of Steel did not include an after-credits scene. Of course, this fanned the flames of the DC vs. Marvel war among fans, with many foolishly taking it personal. However, it turns out Nolan was simply misquoted. ScreenCrush has contacted Nolan’s reps and received an answer from the big man himself. “I would never say someone’s else’s film isn’t ‘a real film’. The quote is inaccurate.”…

Since the release of Iron Man in 2008, Marvel Studios has become known for sticking an additional scene or two after the credits of each movie. It has become such a popular trend, other film studios have incorporated the aspect to its comic book movies. Sony added a post-credits scene for The Amazing Spider-Man (but used an X-Men: Days of Future Past preview for the second installment), while Fox has utilized it for its X-Men franchise. Naturally, this would lead to speculation as to whether or not Warner Bros. would use it for its DC Cinematic Universe. Man of Steel did not feature an after-credits scene, and now, producer Christopher Nolan…

                                                         MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD ‘Penguin’s Umbrella’ is a near perfect episode that achieves the potential of that the series began with. More crime drama than Batman prequel, gone are the flaws that brought down the previous episodes quality and are replaced with high stakes and a sustained air of tension throughout. The promises made by the Pilot are fully realized and it is the best episode of the series by far. The story centers on the fallout from Cobblepot’s revelation that he is…

Gotham Season One is in full swing and while it’s focused primarily on Jim Gordon and Oswald Cobblepot we can soon expect the arrival of Scarecrow. Series Executive Producer, Danny Cannon spoke at Stan Lee’s Comikaze over the weekend.  While there he announced the introduction of Jonathan Crane.  Cannon stated that on the series Crane will be closer in age to Bruce and Selina.  Another change to Scarecrow will be that Jonathan is not the first to take the moniker.  His father will torment Gotham as Scarecrow first and likely tangles with Detective Jim Gordon.

After his critically acclaimed work on both The Dark Knight Trilogy and Man of Steel, Hans Zimmer is set to reprise his scoring duties for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Now that the world of John Constantine has been more or less established we can now get into the series proper. There is a monster of the week vibe to ‘The Darkness Beneath’…

Few directors have left a legacy on the comic book movie genre as much as Christopher Nolan has. The critically acclaimed writer-director’s The Dark Knight Trilogy is without a doubt one of the best superhero sagas to date, reestablishing Batman’s role in the mainstream. Nolan’s involvement in the DC Universe did not end there, however. He produced Man of Steel, which officially kicked off a DC Cinematic Universe, and he is attached as an executive producer to its follow-up, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Warner Bros. still wanted him to continue his involvement, however, as Nolan was approached not only to produce the Justice League film, but a Batman…

Arrow has been a major success for The CW, creating many new fans of DC’s Emerald Archer. The show has been so well-received that, in fact, fans were hoping that it and its spin-off series The Flash would be incorporated into the DC Cinematic Universe. However, Geoff Johns previously denied that the movies and TV shows will be connected, and this was reaffirmed when Ezra Miller was cast as Barry Allen for 2018’s The Flash movie, rather than series star Grant Gustin. Still, that hasn’t stopped Arrow star Stephen Amell from talking about the big screen potential for his character. Speaking with The Wall Street Journal, Amell is asked if he is…
