Since the announcement that DC's finest characters, Superman and Batman, will be teaming up in a major movie together for the first time, the internet has been awash with rumour, counter-rumour and unsubstantiated speculation. The buzz around the project has been predictably intense and unstoppable, which has led to many commentators leaping upon whatever information Warners and director Zack Snyder has chosen to release so far and offering their own interpretations on it. As is the nature of the internet, this has resulted in a lot of misinformation and wishful thinking getting in the way of the facts. There is a fair amount of information that we can take as fact, however, if you only know where to look for it. WhatCulture is as keen as any other comic and film buff to sort the truth from the rumour, and so we offer you here a handy guide to the established facts of the project so far. Obviously, things can and will change before the film hits the big screen but, as things stand, the following are 9 facts that we definitely know about Superman V Batman in a handy list form. All information is correct and substantiated by various sources at the time of writing. With a film as massive and keenly anticipated as this one undoubtedly is, new statements and facts are released on a weekly, if not daily basis.
