Today Batman-on-Film dropped a tidbit about the current delayed-not-delayed status of Batman vs Superman. In addition to dropping a small tidbit about some scenes with the Batmobile being shot in LA very soon...They also added that production may indeed me delayed until mid-March then main scenes in May/June.
They also added that after Oscar award winning scribe Chris Terrio came into rework the script. It actually turned out to that they for the most part threw out David Goyers script. They will keep his designs of Bat suit and other things in that extent but this will Terrio's and Affleck's script.
One minor update and one potentially major update. I’ve been told that Michigan shooting will start at Michigan Motion Picture Studios in Pontiac. I’m hearing mid-March as the start date. Michigan location shooting won’t start until late spring (May or possibly June) at the earliest.It also seems that Ben Affleck seems to have way more sway behind this film then originally thought. He brought in Terrio to get this movie right. This shouldn't come as a huge surprise given in their last press release they stated that it as "Screenplay by Chris Terrio with the story by David Goyer and Chris Terrio" Add this to Justice League: Mortal and Will Bealls Justice League scripts also being scrapped for Warner Bros. They seem to not be able to catch a break...
Now, I specified ‘Michigan’ shooting above, because we know a scene has already been shot in Los Angeles. However, with Chris Terrio now [re-writing the film], that footage is likely scrapped. There was speculation that everything up to the point of Terrio taking over had been scrapped as well (including Batsuit and Batmobile) but that does not appear to be the case. BECAUSE…
My sources tell me a shoot is currently taking place in the Los Angeles area. What’s being shot? Well, I’ve been told it involves the highly anticipated, new BATMOBILE! Whether this footage will end up being used in the film or is for the purposes of testing/promotion is not entirely clear. But it does reveal that pre-Terrio/Affleck designs have been retained
This information coincides with what I’d heard previously about the new Batmobile being tested in late January/early February.
It's still Goyer's story. What's floating around is Goyer's script was more of a direct MOS sequel. WB wanted a more expanded universe
