Ahead of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’s debut this Thursday night, a number of lucky people saw Zack Snyder’s epic superhero movie at the New York and Mexico City premieres and the word is in: the reactions are overwhelmingly positive. Some of the most notable reactions to the movie include thunderous applause for Wonder Woman’s reveal, Ben Affleck’s Batman being hailed as one of the best with many fans calling this one of the best superhero movies of all time. We will still have to wait for the critics to chime in but for now, it appears that Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman are a hit among the fans. Now that the DCU’s Batman got his news story for the day, it’s time to turn our attention to another Batman at Warner Bros, namely, Lego Batman. The standout role from the Lego Movie voiced by Will Arnett will be hitting the big screen with his own spinoff movie and USA today revealed the first images from the upcoming film. The film will see Lego Batman living his solitary life in the Batcave with his butler Alfred voiced by Ralph Fiennes with director Chris McKay teasing the movie as ‘About a Boy’ if directed by Michael Mann. BUY OR SELL Terminator Genisys was supposed to softly reboot the entire Terminator universe and launch a new era for the series but instead, underperformed at the box office as a critical dud. Soon after, word leaked from the studio that the future of the franchise was in jeopardy. But that’s not stopping Arnold. In a recent interview with Weekend Today, Arnold Schwarzenegger was asked about the possibility of another Terminator film to which he responded very positively, saying “I am looking forward to it, absolutely,” seemingly confirming that another movie is still in development. Disney’s live action adaptation of The Jungle Book will be packed with A-list actors that will remain off-screen with child actor Neel Sethi’s Mowgli as the only human role. To showcase the talent behind the Jon Favreau directed movie, Disney has released some stills of the actors next to their on screen characters. The images include Idris Elba as Shere Khan, Lupita Nyong’o as Raksha, Scarlett Johansson as Kaa, Christopher Walken as King Louie, Giancarlo Esposito as Akela and Sir Ben Kingsley as Bagheera. While chatting with Laurence Fishburne about his role as Perry White at the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice press junket, Collider’s own Steve Weintraub asked Fishburne about his part in John Wick: Chapter Two and how his character would fit in the universe established in the original movie. In talking about his part, Fishburne said he's not a part of the Continental world but I’m a part of another world that exists inside the world of John Wick. John Wick Chapter Two will star Keanu Reeves, Ian McShane, John Leguizamo, Bridget Moynahan, Laurence Fishburne and Lance Reddick. A release date has not been set.
