Batman V Superman: 10 Major Surprises That Could Happen

5. Jena Malone Will Play The Oracle

There€™s been a lot of speculation surrounding the casting of Jena Malone in Batman V Superman, since her role still hasn€™t been revealed. This has led to all kinds of wild speculation about how she figures into the plot, with many thinking she€™ll appear in the role of Carrie Kelly from Frank Miller€™s The Dark Knight Returns. Since Snyder is a self-confessed lover of that graphic novel €“ having based the titular fight on it €“ this theory is credible. Another idea is that she€™ll play Barbara Gordon (aka Oracle) instead, who will lend Bruce Wayne some tech assistance throughout the movie. Gordon was famously crippled by The Joker in The Killing Joke, and if the movie carries over that idea it would certainly give Batman ample reason to hate The Joker. Malone bears a good resemblance to the comic version of Barbara, and if her role is being kept under wraps it must be for good reason.
