Batman v Superman: Warner Bros Confirms Which Robin Is Dead

And he hasn't always stayed dead.

After months of speculation, Warner Bros have indirectly answered one of Batman v Superman's most discussed early theories. The question of which Robin was killed by the Joker is now confirmed, and it shouldn't really come as too much of a surprise.

Nobody attached to the production has officially named the dead Robin, for some reason, but a video from the Warner Bros Studio Tour Hollywood has set the record straight. In the video, a tour guide says the following:

"This was one of the big things from Batman v Superman, right across this way. The Jason Todd Robin suit. Spray painted on the front Ha ha. The jokes on you Batman.'"

Here's the video that was posted on Facebook:

Again, it shouldn't come as a surprise, given Todd's history in the comics and those rumours that Ben Affleck's Batman solo was going to be Under The Red Hood. Even with that rumour seemingly refuted, the Todd factor suggests this story is not over though.

This also seems to suggest that in Affleck's universe, Dick Grayson is also alive and well, and presumably operating as Nghtwing. Let's hope that means we'll get to actually see him.

And no, Todd is still not the Joker.
