The Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice Comic-Con trailer raised huge questions and inspired an array of rumors especially surrounding the Dark Knight’s sidekick Robin.
Director Zack Snyder quashed one of the those rumors.
“There are so many, it’s insanity. 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. 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. It’s fun for everyone to speculate and take shots and think of things and try to sell it. There’s an industry in selling your guess. [People think], “I’m going to make a fake script and look like I read the real one.” What length are you willing to go?” Snyder told Yahoo Movies.
“There’s a rumor that my son is [playing] Robin. 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 trailer does show a statue of what looks like a fallen Robin but is it Dick Grayson, Jason Todd, Tim Drake or Damian Wayne? If the movie follows comic canon all signs point to Jason Todd.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens March 25, 2016.
