As production continues on Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice in Detroit, photos from the set of the highly anticipated film have been finding their way online on a regular basis as passers-by (and paparazzi) snap shots of the cast and set of the film. A new set of photos taken by a pair of locals offers a peek at how Detroit is being transformed in Batman’s home city of Gotham for the film.

In a series of photos posted to Twitter by Tim Malin and Tim Reinman (and collected on ComicBookMovie.com), we get a look at the entrance to Gotham City Jail. In the DC Comics universe, the jail typically serves as a holding facility for common criminals and a temporary stop for the more dangerous villains destined for Arkham Asylum or Stonegate Penitentiary. The Gotham City Jail set in Detroit has been constructed inside the building that once housed the Detroit Police Station.

The pair also posted photos of a fleet of Gotham City Police Department cruisers, decked out in full “GCPD” dressing.

We still have quite a long time to wait before Batman V. Superman hits theaters, so you can expect to see a lot more photos make their way online before production concludes on the film.

Scheduled to hit theaters March 25, 2016, Batman V. Superman: Dawn Of Justice stars Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne, Diane Lane, Jesse Eisenberg, and Jeremy Irons. The film is directed by Zack Snyder.

A man holds a gun in Out of the Furnace.

Are you ready for Glicked? Yes, that's the actual nickname for the simultaneous release of Gladiator 2 and Wicked this weekend. Hollywood is hoping for another bountiful Barbenheimer box office bonanza (say that three times fast), and if the tracking is correct, they are going to get it. Expect tons of crowds at movie theaters this weekend.

If you're like me and hate people, er, crowds, then don't worry, I've got you covered. You can stay in and enjoy some films that have been overlooked. I've assembled a list of three underrated movies that are streaming on Max right now. None of them have the spectacle of Ariana Grande singing in a floating pink bubble or Paul Mescal in a blood-stained toga, but maybe that's a good thing.

Aarron Taylor-Johnson in the official poster for "Kraven the Hunter."

Sony's Spider-Man Universe (SSU) has not gone according to plan. Several SSU entries, including Morbius and Madame Web, have been either critically reviled or box office failures. The three Venom films have all been profitable but garnered a negative reception. J.C. Chandor is hoping his film, Kraven the Hunter, will turn the SSU in a positive direction.

While speaking with Comicbook.com, Chandor acknowledged the criticisms of Sony's previous Spider-Man films. Chandor is hoping that fans will watch Kraven with an open mind and not let the SSU's negative reception cloud their judgment.
