If you didn’t hear, mainstream websites gave way more attention than they should have to a random photo that popped up on the internet yesterday. The photo, which was a really bad fake, pretended to be from one of the final frames of the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer. It claimed that Batman v Superman would split up into two parts — Part 1: Enter the Knight on October 23, 2015 and Part 2: Dawn of Justice on March 25, 2016.
Variety film editor Ramin Setoodeh caught up with Henry Cavill today at the BAFTA Tea Party in Los Angeles, and Superman himself officially debunked that crazy rumor.

I’m not so sure about that last one…
But in all seriousness, it’s great to finally put that crazy rumor to rest. Thanks, Superman! You saved the day.
