Noon Nerd News Update - June 4th, 2014

Does The Bat Really Need The Cat?

After her strong performance in, Edge of Tomorrow, it wouldn't surprise me one bit to see Emily Blunt being offered more comic book/action roles. Well, DC must be thinking the same thing, as a Spanish language website is claiming the 31-year old actress is being considered for a role in the upcoming, Batman V. Superman movie. Sure, a fledgling site says someone might get a part, let's not put too much stock in it right? Well this site also speculated at Ben Affleck playing Bruce Wayne/Batman, and Gal Gadot as Diana Prince/Wonderwoman and we know how those turned out. If cast, who might the Brit play? Catwoman, Harley Quinn, maybe Lana Lang? What do you think? Leave comments below or let us know on facebook!

Fans have been waiting for a Thanos appearance ever since he appeared in the after credits scene in The Avengers. Something tells me, another after credits scene in Guardians will set up some Thanos tie in to the next Avengers movie, or some aspect of the current Marvel Universe.
