BREAKING NEWS!!! ZACK SNYDER CONFIRMS MORE BATMAN THAN SUPERMAN IN DAWN OF JUSTICE!

While promoting the Doritos Crash the Super Bowl ad contest, director and DC Extended Universe godfather Zack Snyder confirmed to The Daily Beast recent rumors that Batman v Superman will emphasize the Dark Knight over the Man of Steel. However, it sounds like that was the grand design from the get-go, which lines up with what we’ve been hearing down the line from various sources.

“Only in that because it’s a different Batman than the Batman that was in the Chris Nolan movies, so we have a little bit more explaining to do—and you just had a whole Superman movie,” confirmed Snyder. “But I think only in that way, because you need to understand where Batman is with everything. And that’s more toward the beginning, but it evens back out as it goes on.”

One battle for supremacy that’s very UNEVEN right now is the one between DC and Marvel’s cinematic universes, and Snyder took a little potshot at the competition by comparing the longevity/mythological status of characters in the DC roster like Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman.

“I feel like Batman and Superman are transcendent of superhero movies in a way, because they’re Batman and Superman,” Snyder said. “They’re not just, like, the flavor of the week Ant-Man — not to be mean, but whatever it is. What is the next Blank-Man?”

CONSTANTINE ... FAILED! THE FINAL GOODBYE LETTER FROM TV SHOW WRITER / CREATOR DANIEL

Sadly earlier this year we said goodbye to the DC TV show Constantine. The show had so much going for it including a very big fanbase and any fan will tell you that Constantine is one badass anti-hero, so why then did the show fail? So many reasons and most notably of these, which I picked up on as we made our way through the season, was that it had all been done in shows like Supernatural! Supernatural, in fact, did it way better and who wants to see another Supernatural show when clearly Dean and Sam Winchester do it so well. But whatever the reasons are for the shows failure, it failed and got cancelled.

Writer and co-creator Daniel Cerone released this statement regarding the show:

I promised I’d share news when I had it — sadly, that news is not good. The cast and writers of Constantine are being released from their contracts. The studio tried to find a new home for the show, for which we’re forever grateful, but those efforts didn’t pan out. I’m sorry, I wasn’t provided any information on the attempts to sell the show elsewhere. All I can report is that the show is over. 

Many ingredients went into this TV series. From the dedicated cast that breathed these characters to life, led by Matt Ryan as the comic-made-flesh embodiment of John Constantine, to the exceptionality talented crew that put unreal images on screen, to the original Hellblazer writers and artists who gifted us a universe. 

As a general principle, writers don’t choose a writing career to achieve stardom. Whatever demons or insecurities drove them to find freedom of expression through written words generally keeps writers comfortably obscure behind their words. Nor do people choose writing as a means to financial freedom. I’d venture to guess that most who set out to write professionally never receive a paycheck for their hopeful scribbles or key strokes.

In fact, nobody I know ever chose a writing career — it chose them. You write because that’s what you do. Like breathing, it just happens and you have to do it and you just hope that someday somebody out there notices what you’re trying to say. 

If that’s the dream of writers, than the writers of Constantine lived the dream, because we’re leaving behind wild and passionate fans who believe in and were moved by what we tried to do. To leave such a significant, dedicated and active fan base on the table — that’s the real sadness. You all deserve many years of the series we set out to make, and we’re disappointed that we couldn’t deliver that to you. The good news is that Constantine will live on for years in many more forms. But our time as caretakers has ended.
Thank you for letting us in.
Daniel Cerone

CONSTANTINE TV SHOW TRAILER

SUPERGIRL!!! Go Behind The Scenes With This AWESOME VIDEO!!!

CBS has released a new behind-the-scenes Supergirl video spotlighting the brand-new series and what sets it apart from other superhero television.

Melissa Benoist leads the cast of Supergirl as the title character with a cast that also includes Mehcad Brooks as James Olsen, Laura Benanti as Alura Zor-El, Calista Flockhart as Cat Grant, Chyler Leigh as Alexandra “Alex” Danvers, Jeremy Jordan as Winslow “Winn” Schott, Jenna Dewan Tatum as Lucy Lane (sister of Lois), Iddo Goldberg as Red Tornado, David Harewood as Hank Henshaw, Peter Facinelli as Maxwell Lord, and, in mystery roles, Dean Cain and Helen Slater.
Hailing from Warner Bros. TV and Berlanti Productions (who also produce the hit DC Comics series “Arrow” and “The Flash” for The CW), Supergirl is based on the characters from DC Comics and centers on Kara Zor-El, who comes to Earth after escaping the destruction of Krypton. After many years hiding her abilities, she joins the ranks of her cousin Superman to become the hero she was meant to be.

The pilot episode of Supergirl was written by Ali Adler (“No Ordinary Family”) and Greg Berlanti (“Arrow,” “The Flash”). They will also executive produce along with Sarah Schechter and Warner Bros. TV.

Supergirl will premiere on Monday, October 26 at a special time (8:30-9:30pm) before it moves to its regular time slot on Monday, November 2 from 8:00-9:00pm.

 

ARROW - CHECK OUT JOHN DIGGLES NEW SUPERHERO OUTFIT FOR SEASON 4!!!

To fight crime alongside a hero such as Arrow, you need someone trustworthy and strong enough to keep the team together and any Arrow fan will tell you that John Diggle, played by David Ramsey, is just that man. So what next for our hero Diggle? Well try a new kickass outfit worthy of battle next to a hero like Arrow.

The pics show a helmet ( kind of Magneto-esque... but I didn't say that ) as well as utility belt, vest and jacket in full combat kit. What does this mean for season 4? It means that the action will be faster and harder than ever before as we follow the ongoing adventures of Oliver Queen and his band of heroes!

THE FLASH SEASON 2 PROMO TRAILER IS FINALLY HERE!!!!

“The Flash” is speeding back to our screens on Oct. 6, and The CW has released a new trailer previewing the debut of Teddy Sears as Jay Garrick, best known to DC Comics fans as the original iteration of The Flash, who made his first appearance in Flash Comics #1 back in 1940. In The CW’s sprawling superhero universe, Jay will introduce our Scarlet Speedster, Barry Allen (Grant Gustin), to the concept of alternate universes — beginning with Earth-Two, as the show’s producers revealed at Comic-Con.

As usual, Cisco (Carlos Valdes) manages to nab all the best lines in the footage as Team Flash gets to grips with the possibility of traveling not just through time, but through the Multiverse. Viewers can also get a glimpse of former WWE star Adam Copeland (aka Edge) as DC villain Atom Smasher in the promo.

New faces joining Sears and Copeland in “Flash” season two include Keiynan Lonsdale as future speedster Wally West; Shantel VanSanten as Patty Spivot; and, as Variety exclusively revealed, “Candyman” star Tony Todd as the voice of new villain Zoom. “The Flash” and “Arrow” will also introduce numerous characters ahead of their spinoff series “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow,” bowing at midseason, including Casper Crump as immortal villain Vandal Savage, and Falk Hentschel as Carter Hall/Hawkman.

The CW previously teased Jay Garrick’s arrival with an image inspired by the iconic comic book cover “Flash of Two Worlds” from The Flash #123, which introduced the concept of the DC Multiverse and Earth-Two for the first time in 1961.

“The Flash” season two premieres 8 p.m. on Oct. 6 on The CW.

JASON MAMOA TALKS AQUAMAN!!! Fans MUST READ this! VIDEO ALSO!!!

Actor Jason Momoa is all set to revamp Aquaman's image for comic book fans. We already know that his take on the DC superhero will be a big contrast to how Aquaman has been portrayed in popular culture so far.

Earlier this year, director Zack Snyder released an image of Momoa as Aquaman and it became pretty clear that the character is going to be a total bad--s. During his recent appearance at Fan Expo Canada, Momoa answered some questions about his role in the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice, saying generally that it will be "amazing." (via ScreenRelish)

Responding to the question of whether Aquaman will be a less-dark, "chill" superhero in contrast to the serious, brooding characters of Batman and Superman, Momoa said, "I can't see me busting out a bunch of jokes. I mean, I don't think it'll be like that."

Momoa, who is best known for playing Khal Drogo (Daenerys' husband) on Game Of Thrones season 1, joked that he would not be bringing anything from his past role, to Aquaman. "I don't think Aquaman's going to be raping and pillaging any villages," he said.

Finally, Momoa was asked to respond to the numerous fish jokes made about Aquaman. "You know, it's cute and funny, I mean people make fun of him and there's a bunch of jokes about him. But I'm like 'Well... just wait. Let's just wait a little bit. And then we can make jokes...'" Let us hope that the next trailer of Batman v Superman will show a glimpse of Aquaman in action.

Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice opens on 25 March 2016. The film stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, and Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor.

The solo Aquaman film starring Momoa is slated to release on 27 July 2018 with Fast and Furious 7's James Wan directing.

WILL DIRECTOR ZACK SNYDER'S SON PLAY ROBIN? Here's What Snyder Has To Say

Director Zack Snyder has denied recent rumors that his son Eli is playing Robin the Boy Wonder in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

"It's funny because every now and then someone will touch on something that's kind of true, but the next thing they say makes me realize that they took a wild guess," Synder told Yahoo! Movies. "They'll say something, and I'll say, 'Oh snap, they must have seen the script.' And then they'll say, 'And this happens!' And then I'll go, 'They have no idea what they're talking about.'"

Speaking directly in response to reports that his son would be playing Robin, Snyder added: "It's not true. Now there are all these images of him that people have made where he's dressed like Robin. It's fun to hear and see them."

The director was also asked what he thought about Steven Spielberg's recent comments regarding the death of superhero movies. While Snyder confessed "he might not be wrong," he also noted that Warner Bros.' properties may be able to withstand such a downfall.

"To me, the one thing I love working in the DC universe is that Superman and Batman and Wonder Woman are American mythology," he said. "It's not about making a superhero, it's a mythological universe that we live in. That's hopefully the sort of magic bullet."
