Chicago Tribune journalist Luis Gomez posted the following tweet earlier today stating that the Chicago Film Office has confirmed that work on the highly anticipated film will be heading to the windy city this fall.
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" is scheduled to begin filming in the Chicago area in late-October, according to Chicago Film Office.

Other scenes will be shot on the reconstructed Kent Farm set which is located about 50 miles west of Chicago in the city of Yorkville.
"Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice" is scheduled to open worldwide on May 6, 2016, and is based on Superman characters created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster, Batman characters created by Bob Kane, and Wonder Woman created by William Moulton Marston, appearing in comic books published by DC Entertainment.
