'Batman vs Superman': The Flash Expected to Appear and Villain Casting News

The Other Non-Wonder Woman Revelations 

Some the news lost amid the Wonder Woman casting of 'Fast and Furious' actress, Gal Gadot, was the additional tidbits reported by Variety. They report the Flash is considered a "lock" to appear in some capacity in the Man of Steel sequel. This could mean a mere cameo or more. Even Wonder Woman's appearance is unclear if it it'll be a substantial role in the movie. The dreaded fickle internet is worried that Superman's movie is turning into a Justice League ensemble. Not sure how that could be bad but the inclusion of more heroes could either complicate the as-of-yet unrevealed plot or merely set the foundation for more solo films ending in a possible team picture. There are many questions remaining and patience on the 'net is an oxymoron. 

The other story is Warner Bros.' focus on Kiwi actor Callen Mulvey (Zero Dark Thirty, 300: Rise of an Empire, Captain America: The Winter Soldier) to play an unspecified villain in 'Batman vs Superman'. The immediate impression we get is he could be Lex Luthor considering the resemblance he has to the comic book character. He has a distinct look that reeks of smoldering menace. You can catch him next as Scyllias in the 300 sequel 300: Rise of an Empire coming out in March of 2014.

Gal Gadot to Play Wonder Woman in Man of Steel Sequel

Reportedly Lands Female Role That's Been Rumored

According to Variety, Gal Gadot has been cast as one of the female roles that's been rumored for weeks for the Man of Steel sequel tentatively titled 'Batman vs Superman'. Report is fresh so we're awaiting more details.

The film begins principal photography early next year and opens in theaters on July 17, 2015.

UPDATE: From Warner Bros.' Man of Steel Facebook Page

Wonder Woman/Diana Prince will make her big screen debut in Zack Snyder's upcoming Superman Batman Film!

Snyder stated, “Wonder Woman is arguably one of the most powerful female characters of all time and a fan favorite in the DC Universe. Not only is Gal an amazing actress, but she also has that magical quality that makes her perfect for the role. We look forward to audiences discovering Gal in the first feature film incarnation of this beloved character.”

UPDATE: Twitter chiming in on the breaking news...

Phew! Glad to hear DC’s best-known female superhero is going to make it to screen as a supporting character in a movie about two guys

Still no villain announcement. I guess we can assume "Batman vs. Superman" is a romantic comedy and they are fighting over Wonder Woman

'Wonder Woman' of the Day - Meagan Marie

Amazon Warrior Princess Comes to Life in Awesome Cosplay Shoot

We love all things Wonder Woman and in this installment of 'Wonder Woman of the Day' we are featuring the extraordinary work of cosplayer Meagan Marie. She went to great lengths and great expense to bring her Warrior Wonder Woman vision to fruition and she clearly hit it out of the park. In the past we've featured models and athletes who've donned the iconic Wonder Woman outfit and have looked great, with varying and sometimes questionable costume authenticity, but not always with the passion and attention to detail that cosplayers have shown. A prime example is superstar cosplayer Yaya Han whom we've featured a few times because of her voracious appetite for exquisite costumes and flawless craftsmanship. Marie is just as diligent and the reason she's our 'Wonder Woman of the Day'.

This was a dream project in every sense of the word. As is true for many, Wonder Woman was a first for me – the first female superhero I was introduced to in the world of comics. She holds a really special place in my fandom, and while I love the stars, stripes, and satin tights of classic Wonder Woman, I’ve always been drawn to her Amazon origins. I pictured Diana as a warrior first and foremost, and wanted to bring my specific vision for her to life. - Meagan Marie
