Though production continues on Warner Bros.’ upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in the Motor City, soon the Caped Crusader and the Man of Steel will be relocating to the Windy City.
Previously set up as Gotham in Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight and Batman Begins, Fox 32 reports the upcoming superhero epic will call Chicago home this November where it will double for Metropolis, as it did in 2013’s Man of Steel. The production will spend four to five days shooting downtown followed by a week and a half in surrounding communities.
Starring Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Diane Lane, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons, Holly Hunter and Scoot McNairy, the Zack Snyder directed Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice hits theaters on March 25, 2016.
