Batman v. Superman Is Most Anticipated Movie Of 2016

So we've had some pretty obvious decisions within the past few weeks, so this should come as no surprise either. Time Warner CEO Jeff Bewkes has proclaimed that the upcoming superhero flick Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is easily the most anticipated movie of 2016.

Comicbook.com reports that during Time Warner's annual meeting today, Bewkes talked up the incoming superhero skirmish between its two biggest DC Comics characters. In outlining Warner Bros.’ comic book movie plans, Bewkes revealed that they hope to release up-to 10 DC Comics movies within the next few years. Those plans officially begin with Batman V. Superman, the “no more anticipated movie” for 2016, according to Bewkes.

Now a lot of people - specifically Marvel Studios - may disagree with that statement, considering movies such as Captain America: Civil War, Deadpool, and X-Men: Apocalypse are backed by major fan bases and huge hype, but given that the DC movie is the first time multiple DC properties will be crossing over (and setting up 2017's Justice League: Part One), it's no surprise that a whole new fan base, and many others, are nothing but stoked with this film.

Fearing the actions of a god-like Super Hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice is directed by Zack Snyder, and stars Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Superman, Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne/Batman, and Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman. The movie is slated for a March 25, 2016.
