While Cyborg's mostly known as a member of DC Comic's "Teen Titans" which includes superheroes like Batman's sidekick Robin, Cyborg has also been a member of the Justice League.

Cyborg's role is thought to be a minor as Warner Bros. is expected to be working up to a "Justice League" movie to compete with Disney's monster Marvel cinematic universe on screen.

Previously, Warner Bros. announced Jesse Eisenberg will join the cast as iconic Superman villain Lex Luthor. "Fast and Furious" actress Gal Gadot will play Wonder Woman / Diana Prince.

"Argo" screenwriter Chris Terrio is working on the screenplay based on one by David S. Goyer. Goyer previously worked on the stories for Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight" trilogy.

The "Batman / Superman" movie is currently set for a May 6, 2016 release.
