'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice': 'Aquaman Looks Awesome' But The Film 'Will Have Much Scrutiny,' Says Robert Kirkman

The creator of “Walking Dead” Robert Kirkman recently spoke about the much-awaited DC film “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.” According to Robert who attended the South by Southwest conference in Austin on Saturday, “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” will undergo a lot of analysis as DC has planned to follow it up with the “Justice League” film.

"I think [DC] announcing you’re going to do a Justice League movie after a Superman movie, that was neat and had some awesome things in it, but it wasn’t like amazing or groundbreaking. It’s not organic so there’s going to be so much scrutiny on Batman v Superman when it comes out. It’s got an uphill battle," he said reported Entertainment Weekly.

Robert also added that if the announcement of “Justice League” was not made then the surprise element would have remained integral and that would have been great. However, Robert is quite excited about Aquaman’s appearance in the film and he "looks awesome." Jason Momoa is all set to play Aquaman. The actor’s first look as Aquaman was recently revealed in which he could he seen wearing white streaked hair and black and white costume featuring fins like structure.

The actor had hinted in his previous interview that he might have a small role to play in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.” He had said that “it is not his movie," reported Entertainment Weekly. However, he had added that he is “honoured” to play a part and there is a whole new plan for him in the DC universe.

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” is scheduled to released on March 24, 2016. The star cast of the film includes Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Amy Adams, Diane Lane, Laurence Fishburne, Jesse Eisenberg and Jeremy Irons. Chris Terrio has written the screenplay of the film and Deborah Snyder and Charles Roven are producing it. The major parts of the film have been shot in Detroit, Michigan. The film will be released in IMAX 3D. Ben will be playing Batman in the film whereas Henry will reprise his role of Superman. Gal would be seen playing Wonder Woman.
