Zack Snyder, the movie’s director, spoke with USA Today and released some comments regarding Henry Cavill’s continued role as Superman. He also talked about his decision to feature Batman in this sequel to Man of Steel and the immense scale of this film:

We’ve both created this guy and we can push him around a little bit. The more time I spend with Henry, the more he’s Superman to me. I was in no rush to put Batman in the movie, but on the other hand it seemed organic the way our story was unfolding to start to feather him in. It’s cooler to see a crusty old Batman beating the snot out of guys. You can talk all you want about other superhero movies, but it’s Batman and Superman, let’s just be honest. I don’t know how you get bigger than that.
