Anne Hathaway Returning As Catwoman For Batman vs Superman?

Man of Steel 2 director Zack Snyder recently spoke with Forbes about the film, indicating his excitement over bringing Superman (Henry Cavill) and Batman (Ben Affleck) to the big screen for the very first time.

"Even just Batman and Superman standing next to each other... [I]t's kind of epic," he said. "You do sort of sense the weight of the pop culture iconography jumping out of its skin when you're standing there looking at the two of them and Wonder Woman [Gal Gadot]."

In addition to Lane, Cavill, Affleck and Gadot, Man of Steel 2 stars Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White and Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, butler to Bruce Wayne. Holly Hunter has also signed on to play an undisclosed role.

Man of Steel 2 is scheduled for release in theaters on May 6, 2016.
