Besides Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Lex Luthor and Amy Adams, “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice” will also feature Scoot McNairy. The actor supposedly hinted at his presence and involvement in the movie. Read on to find out the details. Also, read more of potential plot spoilers.

According to USA Today, Scoot McNairy “has a role in ‘Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice.’” The big news came out during the actor’s interview with the aforementioned news publication. Even though he did confirm his part in one of the most highly anticipated DC Comics movies, Scoot McNairy refused to reveal the character he is playing.

“It’s definitely 100% a character I’ve never played and I can’t speak too freely on it, but yeah, getting into that thing was definitely something I had to wrap my head around emotionally in order to play that character," Scoot McNairy told USA Today. He even talked about his experience while filming his part in the movie. “But with that being said, I had a lot of fun doing it when I was in the process of shooting on it — my head was in a different place but I’m really excited to see how it turns out and what they do with it and see the film.”

The first time rumours about Scoot McNairy’s role in “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice” surfaced when the actor was spotted in green screen socks on the movie’s set in August 2014. Ever since the news came out, speculation about his character are running rampant.

Meanwhile, Movie Pilot is reporting new set of rumours supposedly related to the plot of “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.” The website notes that these spoilers “allegedly come from a Warner Bros. employee who has seen the script for ‘Dawn of Justice.” The alleged source has reportedly relayed the information to the author’s friend.

The report suggests considering the information as mere rumour. According to the report, DC Comics character Vril Dox aka Brainiac will be working with Lex Luthor. When Lex Luthor finds Brainiac, he reportedly uses him to “take control of Superman and cause him go crazy.” This will further instigate Batman to “take down” Superman.

The superheroes will discover Lex Luthor’s plot only after an epic showdown. Thereby Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman will join forces to deal with Lex Luthor and Brainiac. However, it will not be easy as towards the end of the movie Brainiac will become even more powerful, determined to demolish earth. This will supposedly result into the formation of Justice League.
