This event happens after Batman: The Caped Crusader and Man of Steel (2013).
Fancast
Henry Cavill as Clark Kent/Kar-El/Superman
As this film is a possible sequence of Man of Steel (2013). I reused the same cast.
After of the Man of Steel’s events, Clark Kent are trying reconcile his double life as a Daily Planet's journalist and as the superhero called Superman. Using your super powers he fights the crime in Metropolis and around the world. But a new criminal mind plans finance the underworld of The City of Tomorrow inclusive the criminal from Gotham City named Joker.
Jake Gyllenhaal as Batman/Bruce Wayne
After millions of requests I decided to change Taylor Kitsch by Jake Gyllenhaal. I think that he’s a good actor. He played excellent roles in films like the main character in Donnie Darko. I believe that he’ll play Batman very well.
After of his battle with Joker during The Caped Crusader that resulted in Sarah Essen’s death, Bruce Wayne broke up with Vicki Vale to protect her of danger. When the Joker escaped from Arkham Asylum, Batman was forced to chase The Clown Prince of Crime in Metropolis. So he used your influence to organize a party in The City of Tomorrow and traveled to Metropolis as Bruce Wayne.
Batman will enjoy his travel to investigate the suspicious activities and connections of the businessman Lex Luthor around the world.
Paul Dano as The Joker
I think that he’s a good actor. I like of his roles in Little Miss Sunshine and There Will Be Blood. I believe that he’ll play Joker very well.
During The Caped Crusader’s events, The Joker was arrested by Batman during their battle. But he escaped from Arkham Asylum and moved to Metropolis where he wishes use your new weapon to take control of the city.
Michael C. Hall as Lex Luthor
I think that he’s a good actor for this role because of his roles in Dexter and Six Feet Under. I believe that he‘ll play a Machiavellian Lex Luthor. I always have this thought about Luthor as a Machiavellian, a fascist and manipulator. I considered for this role other actors like Ben Affleck, Stephen Moyer and Daniel Craig but my choice was Michael C. Hall.
After of the events involving kryptonians in Metropolis and extraterrestrial's activities in Coast City, the U.S. government along with others governments began to research about the development of weapons against extraterrestrials.
First they contacted the Wayne Enterprises to create the weapons but the company rejected the project because of your doctrine against lethal weapons development. So the government was forced to contact the LexCorp Incorporated that have some suspicious activities involving Lex Luthor, the Company President.
Lex Luthor thinks that the kryptonian known as Superman is a threat to the mankind then he desires use all your influence to destroy the Man of Steel including your connections with the Metropolis’s underworld.
During the party "Metropolis says: Hello Gotham!” Lex Luthor meets the playboy Bruce Wayne who came to Metropolis to negotiate a business deal with him. Lex Luthor don't like of Bruce Wayne but he will try keep your false image of philanthropist.
Amy Adams as Lois Lane
As this film is a possible sequence of Man of Steel (2013). I reused the same cast.
Lois Lane continues with her job as Daily Planet’s investigative reporter. During the party "Metropolis says: Hello Gotham!", She meets the billionaire playboy Bruce Wayne and feels a little of attraction for him, but her true love is Superman. She is investigating the Metropolis's underworld and the presence of the Gotham’s Knight in Metropolis.
Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth
He’s a excellent English actor with excellent roles. I think that he’ll play a perfect Alfred. I like of his roles in The Borgias, Lolita and others films.
Alfred is the butler and loyal friend of Bruce Wayne. Alfred isn’t a simple butler because he has medicine knowledge and knows espionage basic methods that he taught Wayne.
Along side of the Dr. Leslie Thompkins he took care of Bruce when Thomas and Martha Wayne were murdered by Joe Chill. This partnership with Thompkins resulted in a platonic relation between them.
Alfred traveled with your friend to Metropolis to help him with the Joker's arrest and investigation about Luthor.
Evan Peters as Jimmy Olsen
Evan Peters was choosen because of his role in the American Horror Story TV series. I think that he’ll play a good Jimmy Olsen. I considered others actors for this role for example Rupert Grint from Harry Potter film series but my decision was Evan Peters.
Jimmy Olsen is a Daily Planet’s investigative reporter and photo-journalist. He usually works with Clark Kent and Lois Lane and their reports. When Jimmy was younger he worked as cartoonist in Daily Planet. He became close friend of Clark Kent, Lois Lane and Perry White. He has a relationship of younger brother with Clark Kent and Lois lane and a relationship of son with Perry White that is their boss.
During the party organized by Bruce Wayne, Jimmy flirted with the Lex Luthor’s bodyguard named Mercy Graves but she ignored him.
Christine Woods as Mercy Graves
I choose her because of her character in ABC’s Flashforward. I think that she’s a good actress for this role.
Mercy Graves is a personal bodyguard of Lex Luthor and secretly she feels a kind of platonic love by Luthor. Graves is able to protect Luthor of any danger situation. She has military discipline and shooter abilities. Her past is mysterious as her boss.
During the Wayne’s party she was flirted by Jimmy Olsen, but she ignored him.
Brendan Gleeson as Dan Turpin
I choose him because of his character in Harry Potter’s film series where he played Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody. I think that he’ll play a good Dan Turpin.
After of the Man of Steel’s events, the police of Metropolis created the Metropolis Special Crimes Unit with the objective of fight against superhuman threats. The veteran police officer named Dan Turpin was the first police officer to become member of this unit alongside his partner Maggie Sawyer. Dan Turpin is curious about the new ally of the Metropolis Police Department in others words the hero named Superman.
Noomi Rapace as Cap. Maggie Sawyer
I choose her because of her character in the original The Millenium’s trilogy where she played the main character Lisbeth Salander. I believe that she’ll play a good Maggie Sawyer.
Maggie Sawyer is a member of Metropolis Special Crimes Unit alongside her partner Dan Turpin. She is a good police officer but she don’t like of the Superman’s actions. When she discovered that the Gotham’s vigilante known as Batman came to Metropolis Maggie began your quest to arrest the criminal named Joker before Batman.
Briefly Cameo
Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Commissioner Jim Gordon
I like his interpretation in Watchmen and The Losers. I think that he looks Jim Gordon and he’ll play Gordon very well.
Gordon shows briefly when Batman promises him capture the Sarah Essen’s killer in other words the sadistic criminal known as Joker.
Richard Schiff as Dr. Emil Hamilton
As this film is a possible sequence of Man of Steel (2013). I reused the same cast.
Dr. Hamilton is the new employee of LexCorp, but he didn’t leave his old job in S.T.A.R.S. Lab. Dr. Hamilton is helping the LexCorp’s scientists in the development of weapons against aliens forces. Maybe this knowledge about aliens will result in another new job.
Laurence Fishburne as Perry White
As this film is a possible sequence of Man of Steel (2013). I reused the same cast.
Perry White appears briefly to give works for his employees of Daily Planet as Clark Kent and Lois Lane. Perry sends Clark Kent, Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen to Bruce Wayne’s party.
Angela Bassett as Amanda Waller
As this film is a part of a possible DC universe in theaters so I reused the Angela Basset from Green Lantern (2011).
Amanda Waller has a short appearance at Bruce Wayne’s party. She has a kind of connection with Dr. Hamilton. Maybe this connection results in a top secret mission.
Matthew Goode as The Traveler
I choose him because of his character in Watchmen film where he played Ozymandias. I think that he’ll be a good Traveler.
The Traveler has a short appearance.
