Is Cyborg/John Stewart In BATMAN VS SUPERMAN?

Latino Review's Elmayimbe is reporting that Zach Snyder is looking for an athletic black actor in his 20s for a cameo in 2016's blockbuster, with the character returning throughout the DC cinematic universe. The role will not be shooting for anymore than a few days.

On top of this the source mentioned that The Fantastic Four reboot's Human Torch, Michael B. Jordan, met with Zach Snyder to discuss the role! And let's not forget, we have seen some filming in football stadiums...

The source didn't mention any details on the character being played so it's up to us; who do you think the (alleged) role is? Victor Stone (Cyborg) and John Stewart (Green Lantern) are the most likely choices but sign off your thoughts below!

Did you guys read Snyder's latest interview? Contradictions left and right.

 

"Unfortunately, the fans don?t know the material"
Hehehehee


"You're not as tied to the mythology"
Hehehehee

 

 

"I understand the canon. I?m not crazy. I know what these characters need from a mythological standpoint."

Hehehehee

 

 

This movie is going to be a mess. But everyone will still go see it, most will claim to see for the "mess" factor, it will make a zillion dollars and we'll get six more of BvS movies.

There's rumour going around the web that this is the cowl that they'll be using for Batman:

A rumour, but wouldn't it be awesome if that was the actual cowl? I'm loving it to be honest. And I'm really hoping we'll finally be seeing those white lenses in the cowl. It looks so much cooler than seeing the character's real eyes. And it gives the indication that there's a whole system build into the cowl.

Guys, that's not it at all. It's an image that is 10 years old. It surfaced when Christian Bale was Batman and everyone wanted to know what his suit looked like.

But that looks nothing like the Bale batsuit :wacko:

Crazy rumours from the set! http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Enphlieuwince/news/?a=96303

? BatFleck will be 40 years old, retired.

? The Batsuit and Batmobile are A...MA...ZING!!!!

? Except for several details, the events that took place in the NolanVerse are going to be Canon. Thalia's involvement in the events of TDKR will not be canon, the supposed death of Bane is also not canon. Other small details are made non-canon.

? After the events of TDKR, BatFleck retired to rebuild Gotham as Bruce Wayne. Robin (in the TDKR but not played by JGL) becomes his first protege as NightWing. There is a 7-year time period between the event in the TDKR and MoS. So, BatFleck has been retired for 7 years.

? During this time, knowing that crime needs to be dealt with, BatFleck constituted the BatFamily: NightWing, BatWing, BatGirl, RedRobin and Robin. The latter died at the hand of The Joker who escaped during the TDKR's event but then reappeared. As a way of getting BatFleck's attention, the Joker devised a plan to attack one of his proteges. He targeted the youngest and less experienced one - Robin. He killed him and BatFleck has been blaming himself day and night for it, this sets up a Batman: Under The Red Hood solo movie.

? In addition to his [bat Family], BatFleck has launched a bunch of BatDrones & BatAndroids ("[bat Army]") Bruce Wayne is one of the most influential man on the planet due to his rebuilding agenda in Gotham, and the rise of Wayne Enterprises.

? Gotham City is basically led by [bruce Wayne & Wayne Enterprises] by day and the [bat Family] & [bat Army] by night. Bruce Wayne has to find time to manage both sides. And, he does. There have been speculation that Bruce Wayne is an ally of the Batman. Bruce admits that he's been "financing" the Batman. But, he says he's never actually met the Batman. He argues that the Batman is making Gotham City a safer place. He argues that without the Batman, Gotham would have been destroyed. This is, of course, the general consensus in the populace. Hence, the fact that he's siding with Batman does not really raise any concerns.

? After the TDKR's event and before MoS, Gotham city is internationally known as the Batman's City. The Batman became an international Legend, the Bat symbol is now viewed as a symbol of Justice, Defiance, and Courage. People are increasingly believing that BatFleck's still alive and kicking...watching over Gotham as a guardian angel. The authorities don't like this, they don't like how the mythos of this vigilante is making them look like a bunch of P****. They would like to put a stop to the [bat Family] and the [bat Army]. In other words, the Batman is an embarrassment to them, he's a problem.

? BatFleck is concerned by the events of MoS. Bane's terror in Gotham is still fresh in his memory; the reconstruction of Gotham is not completely done. Everyone saw what this alien is capable of. BatFleck is the world's greatest Detective and Prep. Expert; he decides to research every single details there is to know about Kal-El.

? Bruce Wayne wants to get involved with the reconstruction of Metropolis. This means that Wayne Enterprises and LexCorp have to work together. He's not thrilled about it but it's for the greater good.

It's kind of funny how all of those revolve around Batman and you get zero info about Superman in all of this.  Haha.

Everyone has seen the new Supes it's the new Bats they want to see, they are keeping us waiting though considering filming has begun!

When asked if he was to shave his head for DC's Batman/Superman film, The Social Network actor joked "Oh, I'm not allowed to say anything about anything for the next six years, I haven't called my mom back in months.

I like the sound of some of this, but other parts just seem off.

Specifically

With the Batfamily, isn't there going to be enough people in this movie already?

Or that there just seems to be so much exposition for Batman, where does this leave everyone else? Especially considering it's technically meant to be MoS2....

    • If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though
    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.
