Batman V Superman New Trailer: 7 Huge Rumours Confirmed

2. Wayne Manor Is Abandoned

The Rumour: Wayne Manor has been abandoned for some time and Bruce is actually living in a small cottage elsewhere on the property that’s located above the Batcave.

What It Means For The Movie: It’s something bold and new for a very familiar character. With so many variations of Batman already existing, it’s understandable that Zack Snyder is trying to change things up. And while Bruce Wayne living in cottage may not sit right with everyone, it means that a new spin is being given to the character to keep his setting fresh and original.

On top of that, it likely suggests that while Bruce may not be the recluse we saw in The Dark Knight Rises, he’s also probably not going to be the celebrity billionaire from Batman Begins either. It looks like we’re going to see more of a slightly-recognizable businessman rather than an outright celebrity.

Another mystery is who exactly is walking towards the decrepit house in the trailer. The likely suspect is Alfred but why would he visit? It could just be for nostalgia but maybe something’s been left behind there.

Though it only appeared for a few seconds, the confirmation Wayne Manor’s appearance only raises more questions about this universe’s Bruce Wayne, namely, what happened here?
