Justin Beiber has reportedly irked fans of the upcoming 'Batman vs. Superman' film, after he posted a picture on Twitter, which suggested that he had been signed up for the superhero flick.

Disgruntled fans took to social media sites to express their anger with one saying that "the would be ruined if that little squirt was in it", and another declared that he would rather kill himself than watch Bieber even have a part in this movie".

However, British boyband Union J said that the ‘Baby' singer would do justice to the role.
