Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is about to open across the world, and with the first reviews hitting the internet last night (with our 4 star take here) the DC publicity machine is in full juggernaut mode.

Our good friend James Kleinmann sat down with Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill today to talk about their new film and they brought these two iconic characters to the big screen.

The interview talks about the introduction of the wider DC Universe, and how the new characters fit in to the world already created by director Zack Snyder and Cavill in Man of Steel. They talk about the different stages of their characters’ superhero lives and the tension that causes.

Here’s the video, check back tomorrow and beyond for more Batman v Superman interviews.
