There have been several reports about the main characters in the DC superhero flick 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,' though most stories have been about Ben Affleck and the film's upcoming appearance at the San Diego Comic Con.
Not much have been seen or heard about one of the film's supporting characters, but the new cover of Entertainment Weekly is about to change all that.
Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman is front and center in EW's cover for 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.' The Amazonian princess is shown with her golden lasso and sword, while Affleck's Batman and Henry Cavill's Superman flank her sides.

This is the first time Wonder Woman is seen in her full glory, not counting the previous promo picture of Gal Gadot in her costume.
EW's 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' issue also features a picture of Diana Prince and Bruce Wayne together. There is even a photo of the usually bald Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) with long hair.

Jesse Eisenberg has previously spoken about making his own version of Superman's nemesis. The actor has famously shaved his head for the role, and may be wearing a wig for the scene.
Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman will also star in her own standalone film. Chris Pine was initially reported to be interested in playing Wonder Woman's love interest in the movie. However, new rumors have surfaced that the 'Into the Woods' actor might be cast for a different role.
Chris Pine has allegedly been auditioning to play one of the two Green Lanterns who will appear in the planned 'Justice League' film. Pine might play Hal Jordan while Tyrese Gibson has spoken about wanting to play John Stewart.
'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' also stars Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth. It is scheduled for release on March 25, 2016.
