Man of Steel 2 Casting Rumors: Will Orlando Bloom Don the Mask in Zack Snyder's Batman vs. Superman Movie? Maybe Jeffrey Dean Morgan or the Wolfman from True Blood, Maybe Henry Cavill will Come Back

Man of Steel 2 casting rumors are flying fast in the geekiverse as comic book hero fans scour the internet for clues. The latest name to heed the call to the Bat-Signal is Orlando Bloom. Man of Steel 2 casting rumors are rampant that the former pirate of the Caribbean will take off the tri-corned hat and put on a bat mask in the 2015 Batman/Superman movie.

Man of Steel 2 casting rumors have attached many names for the role of Batman and his mild-mannered, wealthy businessman alter ego Bruce Wayne. Orlando Bloom joins some fine company.
Express, a news site from the United Kingdom reported that Orlando Bloom is the favorite in Man of Steel 2 casting rumors. Bloom would play opposite Henry Cavill, who will be playing the Man of Steel, Superman,. The site cited a source at Warner Bros.

The insider said, "Orlando looks odds-on to get the part even before our first casting calls. He would be perfect to play off Henry and I think U.S. audiences would be happy with two Brits as the joint male leads."

The Man of Steel 2 casting rumors were revealed as part of an article the magazine was writing which celebrated the success of British actors as American superheroes. They named Henry Cavill’s turn as Superman and Andrew Garfield, who played Spider-Man, AKA Peter Parker.

However, Think McFly reported a different Man of Steel 2 rumor. The site reported that Jeffrey Dean Morgan might also be in the running for the caped crusader. Morgan has been seen in the superhero movie “Watchmen”. He has also appeared on the TV series "Supernatural" and "Grey's Anatomy."

Think McFly reported that Jeffrey Dean Morgan took a meeting about the role of Batman with the director, Zack Snyder. The pair worked together when Morgan played The Comedian on “Watchmen.”

The Hollywood Reporter sited other sources and named Josh Brolin and Ryan Gosling as the frontrunners for the Batman role.

Other candidates on the Man of Steel 2 casting rumor mill included the actor who plays the wolfman Alcide on “True Blood,” Joe Manganiello. But a silver bullet from Richard Armitage of “The Hobbit,” Max Martini from “Pacific Rim” or Matthew Goode, who also played in “Watchmen” might knock the wings right off him.

Of course there is the stalwart Man of Steel 2 casting rumor, that Christian Bale will once again put on the cape and the mask. Other Man of Steel 2 rumors include Bryan Cranston of “Breaking Bad” or Mark Strong to play Lex Luthor.

The Man of Steel 2 casting rumor about Christian Bale says he was offered $50 million to play Bruce Wayne in the upcoming Superman vs Batman movie.

According to publishers of Beyond Batman: The Unauthorized True Story of Christian Bale and His Dark Knight Dilemma by Vince Russel, "Christian Bale's experience as the Batman of our generation is about to prove more inescapable than he expected. With three of the most successful Batman films in Hollywood history under his belt, Christian Bale is now facing extraordinary pressure to become The Dark Knight once more."

Warner Bros. has not commented on any Man of Steel 2 casting rumor.
