Batman-Superman Finds Its Cyborg

Warner Bros. Pictures

"Man of Steel"

A New York theater actor has nabbed the part of Cyborg in the untitled Batman-Superman movie being made by Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment.

Ray Fisher, who is perhaps best known for portraying a young Muhammad Ali in the stage production Fetch Clay, Make Man, is in negotiations to play Victor Stone, the promising football player whose life is derailed and is forced to become the hero known as Cyborg, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

Batman-Superman is on the surface a sequel to Man of Steel, which starred Henry Cavill as Superman, but it is also acting a building block to a bigger DC film universe.

Already cast in the movie are Ben Affleck as Batman and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. The movie has several other actors whose parts have not been revealed, as Warners is trying to keep the whole process mysterious and secret.

Stone/Cyborg was for decades a member of the Teen Titans, a group of heroes that included the sidekicks of adult heroes such as Robin, Wonder Girl and Kid Flash. The character became retrofitted to be a member of the Justice League in 2011, when DC Entertainment relaunched its comic book line as the New 52.

Warners quietly added the character to its casting call several months ago, when it began looking for a physically fit black actor. The part at the time called for only one scene but promised more in terms of future movies.

It is unclear if the part is still one scene.

Ray Fisher will play Cyborg in Batman vs. Superman

Posted on by

Broadway star Ray Fisher has joined the cast of Batman vs. Superman , with Variety revealing that he will appear in the forthcoming film as Cyborg.

For non-fans of the comic-books, Cyborg is the alter-ego of Victor Stone, the son of a pair of scientists who used him as a guinea pig for their various experiments.

When one of said experiments went badly wrong, Stone was critically wounded, and only revived by being kitted out with a host of bionic prostheses.

Fisher's casting confirms the rumour that Zack Snyder was looking to cast a black superhero for the production, while Henry Cavill had also made noises that he would like to see Cyborg in the forthcoming sequel.

Variety reports that Cyborg will appear in a minor role in Batman vs. Superman , before getting a good deal more screen time in the Justice League movie, whenever that eventually arrives.

Directed by Snyder and co-starring Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill and Jesse Eisenberg, Batman vs. Superman will open in the UK on 6 May 2016.

'Transformers 4' Marks New Era in Chinese, Hollywood Marketing Collaboration

Posted on by

Transformers: Age of Extinction has done bigger box office in China the worlds second-largest film market than in North America, due to major advances in China-Hollywood marketing cooperation, says China Movie Media Group (CMMG).

Michael Bay's fourthTransformers installment racked up $134.5 million in its first five days in China, which is higher than the $121 million it had earned in North American theaters by July 1.

"The cooperation between CMMG and Paramount on TF4 is significant,"Zhang Gen Ming, CEO and founder of CMMG, said in a statement. It marks CMMGs first collaboration with a U.S. studio, Paramount Pictures.

"Paramount created the worlds top film while CMMG[brought] the full range of marketing services for TF4, which helped attract more Chinese audiences to come to the theaters. Because of the efforts of both Paramount and CMMG, TF4 will become the blockbuster with the biggest box office in mainland China this year and we couldnt be more gratified," said Zhang.

Transformers: Age of Extinction was simultaneously released in mainland China and North America on June 27. Although it was only open for four days at the end of June, the movie was the highest grossing imported film in mainland China for the first half of 2014, CMMG said.

CMMG was formerly part of state colossus China Film Group, which carries out domestic distribution, box-office promotion services and movie media advertising as an independent unit, while still cooperating closely with the parent company.

The five-day tally for Transformers: Age of Extinction broke the previous record for 3D fantasy epic The Monkey King and CMMG forecasts that Age of Extinction will overtake the $217.7 million record total in China for Avatar, the top-grossing film of all time.

The movie also broke records for its midnight showing, taking in $3.2 million, breaking Iron Man 3s 2013 record of $1,985 million.

Australia could be a leader in titanium processing: CSIRO

Titanium has been used in jewellery and bicycles, 3D printing and heavy industrial parts, even in the cyborg exoskeleton in the 1987 film Robocop, now moves are afoot to establish a new refining process that could make Australia a titanium leader.

According to Australia's peak research organisation, the CSIRO, Australia has the biggest deposits of ilmenite and rutile titanium's base minerals - in the world. It extracts and refines the material, but doesn't process it in large quantities, missing out on a lucrative revenue stream.

Extracting and refining the mineral sand into the metallic form is labour intensive and wasteful, but titanium's strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility make it ideal for aerospace, medical and sport applications.

CSIRO's John Barnes would like to see Australia step up its role in titanium processing.

Currently 95 per cent of the mineral sand mined is used in an oxide form, the pure white colour crucial in products from paint to cosmetics.

The small fraction that is converted to metal goes through a process that is mostly unchanged since the 1950s. It involves very environmentally unfriendly chemicals and as John Barnes, director of high performance metals at the CSIRO's manufacturing flagship explains, expensive.

"When you're machining away 90 per cent of what you want there's a bit of a perverse relationship."

"The industry average is about 11 to one [raw material versus finished product], so you're wasting well over 90 per cent of what you're buying and it goes back into a recycle stream that doesn't have enough value," Mr Barnes says.
