'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' Rumor: Batman to have a sidekick in the film?

By

The countdown to next year's epic superhero blockbuster, 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' is ticking, with reports of the film's first teaser premiering next month. Speculations regarding what fans could expect from the movie have been coming and going, and with no confirmation or official sypnosis from Warner Bros., it is likely that these things would stay rumors up until the movie comes out or at least when the studio gives fans something official prior to that.

When it comes to rumors, fans have more to say about Ben Affleck's Batman than any other character in the film. According to a report published by Movie Pilot's Kit Simpson Browne, fans of the movie franchise may get to see a hint of Robin's existence through a quick shot of the character's costume in the Batcave in one of the scenes in the film, as the Jason Todd incarnation would probably have been murdered by the Joker a long time ago.

Latino Review's Umberto Gonzales also reported that Jason Todd's death may have something to do with one of the storylines in the upcoming 'Suicide Squad' film, especially concerning the relationship between the Joker and Harley Quinn. The Red Hood was also discussed, with Gonzales saying how the character was now a priority for DC, with Chad Stahelski and David Leith (who directed John Wick) being approached to helm a potential film for the popular antihero.

Other speculations include the appearances of the Carrie Kelly Robin in 'Batman v Superman,' which is reasonable considering that the film is loosely adapted from Frank Miller's 'The Dark Knight Returns' graphic novel; as well as Batman in 'Suicide Squad.' The latter's appearance is more likely to happen if the theory of Jason Todd is indeed true because it would give the Dark Knight a reason to be present wherever the Joker will be.

'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' opens in U.S. theaters on March 25, 2016.
