| 'Batman-Superman' official title and logo revealed Posted: 21 May 2014 09:45 PM PDT It is now Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice. Warner Bros has finally released the title and logo of its highly-anticipated Batman-Superman project. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice started filming yesterday in the city of Detroit in Michigan, the United States. Zack Snyder helms this movie, with Henry Cavill reprising his role as Superman and Ben Affleck donning Batman's cape. Just about a week ago, Snyder revealed a picture of Affleck wearing the familiar black costume and standing next to his ride, the Batmobile. Reactions to that reveal have been positive, with many fans showing a liking for Batman's "short ears" and the Batmobile's return to a more "classic" look. The movie also stars Gal Gadot as Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and Jeremy Irons as Alfred, while Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane – who were in Man Of Steel – will reprise their roles in this sequel. Although plot details for the movie are still unknown, the official title seems to hint at having links to a Justice League film that Snyder is set to direct. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice is set for a mid-2016 release; apart from the US, production will also take place in Africa and somewhere in the South Pacific.

| Hugh Jackman enjoys playing Wolverine more than ever Posted: 21 May 2014 09:00 AM PDT It's the seventh time the actor is wearing Wolverine's claws. IT was 14 years ago when the relatively unknown Hugh Jackman got the part of Wolverine in the X-Men movie. This year, Jackman wears Wolverine's claws for the seventh time in X-Men: Days Of Future Past. In an interview with the affable Australian actor – who is sporting a full beard for his next role as Blackbeard in the film Pan – he confessed with a twinkle in his eye that he is getting old and just can't fight the same. "I haven't done stunts in 10 years. Come on!" the 45-year-old said in jest. The truth is he pushes himself harder to get into Wolverine-shape, which he has documented on his Instagram (@thehughjackman). "Physically, you get tired," he said when asked if it gets easier to play the role he is most famous for. "The physicality is not only on how he looks. I think it's important to show his ferocity and the animal side to him, be lean and veiny. "So I put high standards I suppose each time. But to actually get into the character, that is getting easier. And yet, I sort of don't want it to be easy, I don't think anything about Wolverine is easy. Even if he appears to be easy on the outside, his interior shouldn't be at ease. That's just who he is – a warrior really, a very complex and tortured hero." Although there is no word on how long Jackman would continue to play the role – it all depends on the scripts he gets – he said: "Right now I am enjoying him more than ever. I love playing the character and the movies are getting better. I got goosebumps at the end of this because all I could see are the possibilities not only for Wolverine but the entire X-Men universe." But if there was a reboot, who does he think can play Wolverine? "Have you heard the joke of four stages of being an actor in Hollywood? "There are four stages of being an actor – 'Who is Hugh Jackman? Get me Hugh Jackman. Get me the younger Hugh Jackman. And who is Hugh Jackman?' I am rapidly approaching 'Get me the younger Hugh Jackman.' "I am not going to make it easier for them. At least I am going to make them work for it, alright. So I am not going to answer that question." – Mumtaj Begum Related stories: Impressive cast, time travel in X-Men: Days of Future Past Peter Dinklage is inerested in characters with shades of grey |
