DC Movies: Batman v Superman Trailer Leaks; Green Lantern movie looking to cast John Stewart

Looks like the DC Cinematic Universe is picking up steam in the official and unofficial side of things.

First off and in case you missed it - the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer has LEAKED online, and Batman-News.com has the scoop on what went down as well as a video link that may or may not still be available.

Secondly, the 2020 "Green Lantern" film will reportedly feature John Stewart as the main lead and Green Lantern of Earth. Comic Book.com has the story on that following an episode of Meet The Movie Press.

Green Lantern John Stewart fan-film "Power" teaser looks LEGIT

If there's anything that hasn't been revealed thus far with all the DC Cinematic Universe hitting the interwebz, it's "who exactly" will be the next Green Lantern that will appear in the new film that'll arrive in 2020. Many are hoping it's one of the other Green Lanterns besides Hal Jordan, and fingers are being crossed that it will be the African-American Emerald Warrior seen in the DC Animated Universe's Justice League and Justice League Unlimited shows -John Stewart.


John Stewart Green Lantern Teaser Trailer
Well, P3Series is apparently hard at work at a Fan Film that features Johnny Boy himself... In a fan film called "POWER" and a story that has John as Public Enemy No. 1 and forces led by President Lex Luthor after him. Comic Book.com also featured this one, and it looks pretty LEGIT.

Batman Vs Superman: Denzel Washington being rumored for the role of Green Lantern John Stewart

Now this can be taken with a BIG Grain of Salt since this is a rumor... But it's pretty interesting to say the least for a casting choice on Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment's upcoming Man Of Steel sequel for 2015, the yet untitled "Batman Vs Superman" movie that now has Wonder Woman in it!

With plenty of rumors abuzz suggesting that other heroes and villains may appear in the upcoming superhero film, the one lingering and interesting theory was that Academy Award Winning actor Denzel Washington would be up for a role in the film, and early reports suggested he'd be an African-American version of Superman's eternal arch-nemesis, Lex Luthor.

That doesn't seem to be the case now however, as a new scoop according to Nuke The Fridge and posted by Screen Rant suggests that Mr. Washington may not play a villain, but rather a hero... And that's Green Lantern John Stewart!

Fanmade: Idris Elba as Green Lantern John Stewart

This is a fanmade poster mock-up that caught eyes and was featured in DC Cinematic Universe's Facebook Page. Given the fact that Ryan Reynolds played Hal Jordan and Mark Strong as Sinestro in the 2011 live action Green Lantern film, one can only wonder what could have been if there was an actual follow-up/ sequel that improved on the first's flaws and mistakes.

This would probably be one of them... The pitch is sound, and it actually works!

Yes... Idris Elba, aka Heimdall in Thor and Major Stacker Pentecost in Pacific Rim... AS JOHN STEWART.

Fanmade... BUT AWESOME... And if it were true... BEWARE HIS POWER, FOR TONIGHT HE WOULD BE CANCELLING THE APOCALYPSE, BLACKEST NIGHT WISE.

Evo 2013: New Injustice: Gods Among Us DLC and Ultra Street Fighter IV upgrade announced

It's the big time for fighting game fans and players worldwide, as Evolution 2013 brought together some of the biggest and baddest brawlers from around the planet to test their skills in one of the biggest annual tournaments in the Fighting Game Community (you can also watch the stream LIVE while it's going here via Kotaku)

That being said, there's going to be plenty of memorable matches and players when the dust settles and the final list tally comes up, but EVO 2013 also gave rise to some pretty intense announcements, especially with two games I've had the privilege of playing and enjoying as a player myself - Namely Injustice: Gods Among Us and Street Fighter IV.
