15. Commissioner Gordon Is Dead

The Rumour: You know why we never heard any casting announcements for Commissioner Gordon? Because he's dead by the time Batman v Superman begins, and is only mentioned by way of a memorial plaque dedicated to him.

How Much We Believed It: Up until a few weeks ahead of release, a lot. This one sounded totally plausible even if it was an undeniably ballsy move. 7/10

The Truth: J.K. Simmons ended up being cast recently as Gordon for the upcoming Justice League, so that totally put that one to bed with no ambiguity whatsoever.
