12 Things We Learned About Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice From Empire Magazine

For a movie that is not coming out until March of next year, Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice fans are getting treated to a lot of cool photos, videos and information ahead of time. Empire Magazine’s Batman V Superman issue is no exception and gives us a ton of clues about not only this movie, but the entire DC movie universe (which includes no less than a dozen movies between now and 2020). Read on to find out more.

Justice-League

It’s interesting to note that the Justice League is the lynchpin for the DC universe, considering it hasn’t even been made yet and Part 1 won’t come out until 2017. However, Zack Snyder wants the other movies to work around this concept, saying:

“That is our Wonder Woman, our Aquaman. They have their own creative concepts that support them, but they do serve Justice League in the coming together of these heroes.”

We know that screenwriter Chris Terrio has already finished the script for Justice League and that it may be accessible to the directors and writers of these other DC movie properties. We also know that the Justice League directly influenced the production designer for Batman V Superman. Says Patrick Tatopoulis:

“With the Justice League coming, it influences my designs of the Batmobile, the Batcave, the Batwing.  We are creating a world for Batman – every set, every prod. is real.  We have to be ready for what’s next.”

Of course, we won’t know how exactly Justice League has influenced everything until the film hits theatres, but it’s interesting to learn how important and integral it is to DC’s EU.
