With Ben Affleck, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons, and Gal Gadot coming aboard Batman vs. Superman, the cast Zack Snyder is assembling is a pretty good one. They should be more than capable of filling the void left by Russell Crowe who won't be returning as Jor-El. And now that cast has just gotten even better with three new additions; two with previous comic book movie experience, and one screen veteran.
Holly Hunter, Tao Okamoto, and Callan Mulvey are officially joining the Man of Steel sequel, in new roles created for the film. Mulvey's casting is interesting because his name came up a few months ago to play a villain, and that may still be the case. He was recently seen in the Zack Snyder-scripted 300: Rise of an Empire, and is a member of SHIELD's Strike unit in Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Okamoto was seen last summer in The Wolverine as Mariko Yashida.
Batman vs. Superman opens May 6th 2016.
