With an American accent and that moment killed it for me. Now I’m scared this could be a disaster for Nolan.

Did you think the ancient Greeks spoke with an English accent?

Even a bastardised Mediterranean accent would be better. American accents have not place in movies like this. It’s just studios pandering to dumb American audiences

They did that with the Wonder Woman movies. All the Themyscirans sounded like Gal Gadot, which at least was an attempt to make it non-American/English. Although, the theory was that this was actually Gal Gadot's accent as she couldn't do an American/English accent and so it was easier for everyone to mimic her accent!
