Batman versus Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

Superheroes Batman (aka Bruce Wayne, CEO of Wayne Enterprises, played by Berkeley-born Ben Affleck) takes on Superman (played by Henry Cavill, who debuted in Texas-born Kevin Reynold's 2002 production of The Count of Monte Cristo, as Albert), both DC Comics icons, in this movie. At one point, Batman delivers a very strong kick to Superman, but also uses Kryptonite, which makes Superman weak. The movie is as much about technologically and scientifically equipped and well prepared Man versus the raw, alien strength of Superman, who is representative of the force of Nature. There is also an element of an older Batman facing off against a younger Superman. Eventually the heroes unite to fight the monster created by Jesse Eisenberg's Lex Luthor, Superman's greatest enemy. The monster is eventually destroyed through a Kryptonite mace. Gal Gadot (Gisele in Fast and Furious 2009) also features as ex-Amazonian princess, Wonder Woman. The film is directed by Zack Snyder who also started Cruel and Unusual Films. Zack made his directorial debut with a remake of the 1978 film Dawn of the Dead.
