Accordingly, Jena Malone will actually be playing Barbara Gordon, whose role was previously taken on by Alicia Silverstone in “Batman and Robin” featuring George Clooney and Chris O’Donnell.
With that being said, Malone will actually be playing the character’s alter ego as well, who is known to be Batgirl or Oracle. However, until Director Zack Snyder confirms these latest reports about Jena Malone’s role in the movie, everything is merely speculation at this time.
There were reports that came out with juicy information on how Warner Bros and DC Comics finally arrived with the idea of “Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice.”
Zack Snyder had the idea to put Batman in a “Man of Steel” sequel. Snyder is the director of “Man of Steel,” while “The Dark Knight” movie series is under the helm of Christopher Nolan.
When Snyder broached the idea to Nolan, the latter was surprised but became supportive of the idea. But everyone had the assumption that had Nolan directed the upcoming film, he will surely have a different take on the Caped Crusader.
In the movie, Batman will be meeting “Suicide Squad” characters including The Joker, played by Jared Leto, and Harley Quinn, played by Margot Robbie. He will put them behind bars but not before The Joker kills Robin.
