New details for DC's latest crossover film, "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" have been revealed in regards to two villains and Jena Malone as a member of the Bat Family.

According to ComicBook, "The Hunger Games" star was hinted to play Commissioner Jim Gordon's daughter Barbara Gordon a.k.a. Batgirl and Oracle in a written report from The Latinon-Review. The website clarified that it is unknown yet whether Malone's character will undergo either the codename of Batgirl or Oracle, as more information aboutit will come very soon.

Screenrant noted that Malone's character was rumored to be Carrie Kelley, the Robin from Mark Miller's graphic novel "Batman: The Darknight Returns," hinting her change of color might have something to do with it.

Barbara Gordon is one of the more prominent characters in the Batman mythos. Not only that she is the Commissioner's daughter, but a vigilante and a genius computer hacker as well. She started her crime fighting career as Batgirl, alongside the Dark Knight and the Boy Wonder, until the painful event when she was shot and crippled by the Joker in "The Killing Joke" storyline, which led her to become Oracle.

Given the events of "Batman V Superman," wherein Bruce Wayne retires as Batman after failing to save Robin from his arch-nemesis, it could be possible that Barbara could be another victim of the Joker's attack given the horrible history that the two have in the comics.

Screenrant further adds that Director Zacks Snyder's decision of having Batgirl in the mix will likely have him biting off more than he could chew, but she could possibly appear in a small cameo within "Batman V Superman."

Aside from Barbara Gordon, Blastr previoulsy reported that supervillain KGBeast is rumored to join "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice," being played by "300: Rise Empire" actor Callan Mulvey.

Heroic Hollywood further adds that KGBeast could be another one of Lex Luthor's (Jesse Eisenberg) criminal underlings and hinted as "bada**" that keeps tabs on possible metahumans around the world. His real name in the comics is Anatoli Knyavez and he first appeared as a Batman villain in the "Ten Nights of the Beast" storyline.

Tech Times reportedly claimed that Doomsday will appear as another antagonist in the film, as fans speculated that the laser scene from "Batman V Superman" trailer was a bit different that it came from another person/creature and not from Superman.

It the "Batman V Superman" trailer, fans had a glimpse of General Zod's body after he was killed by Superman during "Man of Steel" and is theorized that Luthor is experimenting on his corpse to explout weaknesses against Kryptonians, Venture Capital Post reported.

The website further adds that Luthor might use Zod's DNA to create the monster as a reported leaked plot details revealed that Doomsday will face Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman and Aquaman in a fight.

"Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg and Gal Gadot and it will be released in cinemas on March 25, 2016.
