A rumor suggests that director Zack Snyder’s son, Eli Snyder, will play Robin in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice.

The rumor is reported by Heroic Hollywood, and the site admits that it could not confirm the rumor, thanks to the intense secrecy surrounding the film. We did see the dead Robin’s suit in the trailer for Batman v. Superman, which also revealed at least one flashback scene (to Thomas and Martha Wayne’s death in Crime Alley). A flashback involving Batman and the Joker could have been filmed while both Ben Affleck and Jared Leto were on set for Suicide Squad.

There's also no sggestion of which Robin Eli Snyder would play, tough the first assumption would have to be Jason Todd.

Snyder has enlisted his son for films before. Eli Snyder appeared in Watchmen as young Rorschach and in 300 as young Leonidas. Eli Snyder is a quarterback who will head to UCLA next school year to study film.
