Official The Batman Thread

[Jello Biafra]

The height and build doesn't matter since a personal trainer can take care of the physique and Hollywood has been faking the funk making tiny white dudes look normal height since forever.
My thing is finding someone who can play Bruce Wayne convincingly.

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

I personally liked Batfleck, he was much better than Bale IMO...Bale played an excellent Bruce Wayne but was borderline unwatchable in the suit...Don't even get me started on that voice...

The fact they want a young Batman worries me that we're going to get another origins movie...

Batman doesn't need another origins movie...I don't even want to see flashbacks of his parents dying...

‘Batman’: Matt Reeves Provides Update On Warner Bros. Reboot

“I’m just excited to be focused on a tale that’s defying for him (Batman) and is very personal to him, but at the same time, we’re really–obviously we’re not doing any origin tales or anything like that –but definitely Batman, emotional, and him being the world’s greatest detective,” said Reeves.

Get your grains of salt ready...the latest casting rumor according to the Revenge of Fans site podcast that this list of dudes are being talked about for the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman:

Ansel Elgort

Dylan O’Brien

Logan Lerman

Jack O’Connell

Richard Madden

Kit Harington

Nicholas Hoult

Noah Centineo

Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Taron Egerton

Armie Hammer (supposedly the studio's pick)

Taylor-Johnson, Madden, Hoult and Hammer would all be good picks as far as I'm concerned. The rest of them not so much.

The only actual rumors I remember was the Noah guy and Kit Harington

 

[eufemism]

Armie Hammer would be lit

 

[eufemism]

Imagine losing BATFLECK to these losers they got

Armie is cool, but he's too soft to be Batman..

They said that about Heath Ledger too

Dude is an amazing actor. You're tripping if you think playing a billionaire playboy is out of his acting range

 

[OmegaK2099]

If Tom Cruise can play action heroes into his 50s why couldnt Batfleck

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Most y'all hated Batfleck now u switchin up again

Stop. First of all none of these "rumors" are concrete at all.. there is going to be a year or more of bullshyt surrounding this picture. This is how these internet nerd sites operate now. They'll post anything for clicks.

Not true. BvS got a lot of hate on here, but most of us were in agreement Batfleck was great...killing aisde.

Think it had more to do with the change up of the narrative than Affleck's ability to play younger than he is.

Hammer showed he can be a convincing tough guy in Man from UNCLE.

Get your grains of salt ready...the latest casting rumor according to the Revenge of Fans site podcast that this list of dudes are being talked about for the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman:

Ansel Elgort

Nah, could see him as Nightwing (though I don't know how dark he gets so maybe not)

Dylan O’Brien

No, he'd be better as a part of the X-Men

Logan Lerman

Always confuse this dude with 13 Reasons Why dude, dunno if he can act like him but don't see it. Could be a villain in some capacity

Jack O’Connell

Unsure if he has the look but I know my dude can act. Would put in my top three out of this list

Richard Madden

Top 3. If he gets it, he'll be a better Bruce than Batman

Kit Harington

Hell nah

Nicholas Hoult

Hell nah, he's more of a Loki kinda character (I know he's Beast but if he did another character, I see it in that vein)

Noah Centineo

He looks like Shazam's best friend

Aaron Taylor-Johnson

Dark horse, but don't see it. Feel like he'd get sick of it, as well as Eisenberg Bruce

Taron Egerton

Would be better as a light-hearted lead

Armie Hammer (supposedly the studio's pick)

Top three


Taylor-Johnson, Madden, Hoult and Hammer would all be good picks as far as I'm concerned. The rest of them not so much.

 

[Soymuscle Mike]

The amount of speculation this movie will carry alone makes me wish they would've stuck with Affleck

They look better suited to play a young Alfred or failed Rock-Star junkie....not Batman...

Can't they try to work things out with Ben?

Its been two years of speculation i think they are pass that at this point.

Hammer would be the only one from ghat list im remotely interested in and thats cause I think he would be a great Bruce Wayne.
