Henry Cavill Geeked Out When He Saw Batman On The Dawn Of Justice Set

DC Comics fans all over the world are geeking out over this week's release of Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and they're in good company. Superman himself, Henry Cavill, geeked out on the film's set when he first saw Batman in all of his Dark Knight glory.

"I have trouble not geeking out," Cavill told Variety, "and I was geeking out so much - trying to be cool at the same time, obviously – that I forgot that I was dressed in the Superman costume. I was like, 'Oh, that's Batman over there, that's so awesome!' Then, of course, I looked at the monitor, and I remembered that I was the guy next to him."

And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it's ever known before.
