Movie Rumor: Jena Malone's Batman v Superman secret character finally revealed?!

As I previously posted here last year (October 2014), Jena Malone was rumored to be appearing, possibly in a cameo, for a mystery role in Zack Snyder's (director of her Sucker Punch film) Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (starring Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, and Ben Affleck) film, which will be opening in US Theaters nationwide early next year, March 25th, 2016.

The Hollywood Reporter confirmed that Jena was, indeed, in Batman V Superman, but it’s unknown whether she’s playing a female Robin or a different character. Malone has been seen on set last summer, but the visit was originally attributed to visiting her Sucker Punch director Zack Snyder. Then, two weeks later, Jena posted a photo on her Instagram of her hair newly dyed red, a color similar to Carrie Kelley’s, the female Robin from The Dark Knight Returns.

Now, various rumors and media reports says Jena is playing the following role for BvS (watch the film's Comic-Con trailer below!)...

According to Latino Review, Barbara Gordon, the daughter of police commissioner Jim Gordon, who eventually becomes the vigilante Batgirl and after that the hacker/computer genius Oracle.

This is not confirmed yet, of course. Still a rumor at this time, but whatever character Jena is playing, I hope it's a good one. I am really looking forward to seeing this movie because I'm a huge Superman fan and, of course, I love Henry Cavill and Amy Adams as Clark Kent/Superman & Lois Lane and the rest of the great BvS ensemble cast. I'm even more excited to see this movie now that Jena's on it as well, even if she has a brief cameo appearance.

Check out the awesome Comic-Con trailer for BvS below...
