The debate over which title superhero in Batman v Superman would win in a fight has finally been settled ... by kids. Henry Cavill decided to get to the bottom of the grudge match between Ben Affleck's Batman and his own Superman by asking a group of young super-fans just which hero will ultimately prevail. Let's just say that things are looking pretty grim for the Man of Steel if this up-and-coming generation is any indication.
Of course, this was all in fun with the aim to raise awareness for Omaze's charity contest, in which the winner will attend the Batman v Superman premiere to meet Affleck, Cavill, and Jesse Eisenberg, among other such fantastic experiences. All it takes is a charitable donation starting as low as $10, which you can contribute in order to enter the contest here. There are three great causes that will benefit from your donations here, one each for Affleck, Cavill, and Eisenberg. There will only be one winner of this contest, but really, everybody wins!
“I will have the chance to fly in a helicopter with the winner of Omaze’s latest campaign alongside Batman v Superman,” says Henry Cavill. “I’ve done some flying before (wink wink) but helicopters always feel just that little bit of a notch up! More importantly though, donations are going towards a good cause in Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust where they are doing the real Superhero act, saving the planet one species at a time. Thank you to Omaze for making this campaign possible and providing such a wonderful platform to work off!”
“I’m a lifelong basketball fan and, as Lex Luthor, I even get to take a few shots in Batman v Superman,” says Jesse Eisenberg. “So I’m able to combine that passion with the incredibly innovative SEED Project – which uses basketball and education to empower the next generation of African leadership. I look forward to meeting the Omaze winner and taking a few shots – with a camera, of course – at the movie’s red carpet premiere in New York City.”
“Like so many other fans, we can’t wait for the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” says Matt Pohlson, Omaze Co-Founder and Co-CEO. “Omaze is thrilled to partner with Warner Bros. and give fans the opportunity to attend the movie premiere and hang out with the cast. Working with Ben, Henry and Jesse has been an amazing experience and being able to help them support three incredible causes that they’re passionate about makes it even better.”
