<p><em>Catching Fire</em>&#8216;s Jena Malone has been the latest to be attached to 2016&#8217;s<em> Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice </em>and will allegedly be playing Carrie Kelly, a.k.a Robin, according to a recent interview with an anonymous source within Warner Bros.

<p>WILX-10 News station reporter Kirk Montgomery spoke with one of the extras at Michigan State University, where a scene involving Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) and Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) was being filmed this week.</p>
<p>“I’ve also learned that the character of Robin is now female,” he said, referring to the film&#8217;s alleged adaptation of the comic book arc <em>The Dark Knight Returns</em>, in which Batman&#8217;s sidekick, Robin, was portrayed by a woman named Carrie Kelly. Warner Bros. has declined to comment.</p>
<p>Malone, who appeared in “<em>The Hunger Games: Catching Fire</em>,” has been seen onset of the superhero blockbuster and recent movie red carpet premieres donning a red hairstyle.</p>
<p>Casting rumors for “<em>Batman V Superman</em>” have been in high demand since director Zak Snyder revealed the project at Comic-Con last year.</p>
<p>The anonymous extra in question who spoke with WILX faces a sizable fine of at least $5 million after signing a non-disclosure agreement with Warner Bros. which was, in turn, breached.</p>
<p>“<em>Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice</em>,” co-starring Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, and Jeremy Irons, opens <strong>Mar. 25th, 2016</strong>.</p>
