Weta Digital's Joe Letteri Teases Epic "Standalone" Sequence In BATMAN v SUPERMAN

In Man of Steel, Weta Digital created the impressive opening sequence which was set entirely on Krypton. Now, Senior Visual Effects Supervisor Joe Letteri reveals that they're working on another standalone sequence in 2016's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice...

Man of Steel's Krypton set opening sequence was a highlight of the 2013 movie, so the fact that Weta Digital are working on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is something to most definitely get excited over. In the lengthy video interview with Collider below (which is well worth watching for updates on everything from the Avatar sequels to their work on The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies), Weta's Joe Letteri promises another standalone scene in Zack Snyder's 2016 sequel.

This is very interesting to think about. He confirms that it's not the teaser which was shown at Comic-Con, as you can see by skipping ahead to the 9:25 mark, so it will likely be another major sequence of some sort. Doomsday? Batman battling Superman? We'll just have to wait and see...

Weta should have done all of the MoS CGI. You can tell the difference between their part in the movie, and the other studio. Their part in the movie was much, much better and I feel like the action scene could have been so much better.

My theory is it will show what happened besides superman vs zod at the end of MOS, like where wonder woman and aquaman were.

i think it will also show Bruce and flash saving people in the city.

i hope we get wonder woman vs faora since we never actually see her die

I hope it's a scene setting up the Green Lantern Corps. It would be really cool if it's Mogo. That guy (planet) would be awesome to see on screen.

@newmutantsRETURNS

Are the two movies your selective memory is referring to Watchmen, Green Lantern, Jonah Hex, TDKR, or Man of Steel?

Wonder Woman and the Greek Gods. They're debating on whether or not to attack Superman because they think he is a New God. Wonder Woman doesn't want a fight but the Greek Gods are all like "Your attachment to the mortal world makes you weak" but she stands up to them and convinces them to send her instead of Ares.
