According to Batman News, rumors suggest that security is so tight on the set of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice that actors Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, and Gal Gadot have to wear big black robes when they're on set and not filming a scene.

Chris Begley of the said site shares his take on this photo shared by Snyder.

"It appears that they took a photo of Cavill in one of those robes and then decided to have a little fun in Photoshop and turn it into a Star Wars themed shoot," Begley wrote.

If the photo is a hint to something, we are sure to find out soon.

Early this month, Warner Bros. shared Cavill's first photo suited up as Superman in Twitter, with the big "S" on his chest as he stares through a "grim-looking rain."

USA Today reported that Director Zack Snyder says it is a challenge to really dig in and evolve Clark and Superman as a character. According to him there's also "the fun of trying to figure out what to put in front of him that's difficult."

The director added that Cavill is more comfortable with the role the second time around.

"We've both created this guy and we can push him around a little bit," he says. "The more time I spend with Henry, the more he's Superman to me."

Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice casts Cavill, Ben Affleck, Gal Gadot, Laurence Fishburne, Amy Adams and Diane Lane who are all reprising their "Man of Steel" roles, and they'll be united with Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Jeremy Irons as Alfred and Holly Hunter in an unspecified, newly created role for the movie.
