UPTOWN — CTA Red Line riders may have been a bit surprised Wednesday evening to find the Lawrence Avenue station masquerading as the fictional Gotham Transit Authority's Green Line Gotham River station.

The forthcoming blockbuster "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" has been filming in Uptown this week. The film stars Ben Affleck as Batman and Henry Cavill as the Man of Steel.  The film is scheduled to be released in 2016.
