The first full trailer for “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” which debuted during the SDCC 2015, already hinted on at least one Robin scene.

The speculations at that time were focused on Jena playing Carrie Kelley, who was the female Robin from the “The Dark Knight Returns“. Of course with a fight as wide-spread as that one, there is bound to be more than a handful of casualties, and bringing in witnesses like Jimmy Olsen to testify in the Senate meetings may help or hurt Superman’s reputation.
Let’s rewind a bit. As the site reports, the twist is that Jimmy Olsen lost his legs after they were pinned down by falling building rubble. He doesn’t blame Superman for it [his loss of legs]. For many, Batman going at it with Superman feels like a long-time dream finally realised. Now Heroic Hollywood is saying that those rumors, were in fact true.
Those character details were never officially confirmed, and it looks like the extra’s original story has since been taken down.
Clearly, Batman better have some damn good tricks up his sleeve when Batman v Superman opens March 25th. It wouldn’t be surprising if the DC Cinematic Universe wanted to introduce him at some point, and McNairy is a plausible fit.
Fresh from the rumor oven, showbiz insiders are reporting that director Zack Snyder’s own son, Eli, will be stepping into the Robin suit.
We Got This Covered actually came out with juicy information on how Warner Bros and DC Comics finally arrived with the idea of “Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice“.
