Hollywood stars are fighting to be James Gunn’s new Batman

“This is the role that everyone dreams of playing today!”

This is the kind of tortured superhero that all actors want to embody.

James Gunn assures that the biggest Hollywood stars queue to play Batman in his next iteration of the Black Knight, for his DC Universe.

In an interview with IGN, the boss of DC Studios reveals that many leading actors have expressed their desire to play Bruce Wayne, and wear the film being developed Batman: The Brave and the Bold.

“”Many elements are still in motion, especially on its parentage, its parenting and all that. But I can tell you that an incredible number of great actors contacted me to tell me that they wanted to be Batman. “

According to James Gunn, the character attracts in a very wide way to Hollywood, especially since Christian Bale modernized the myth with the trilogy of Christopher Nolan. Which makes Gunn say:

“It is probably more difficult to find an actor who does not want to be Batman. This is the role that everyone dreams of playing today!”

The producer does not give a name, but we understand that he will be spoiled for choice. But what profile will he choose for his version of the hero of Gotham? Probably an actor of a certain age, since his Bruce fight the crime with his son Damian Wayne, in the costume of Robin. We therefore imagine it far enough from the current Batman embodied by Robert Pattinson, and who will continue to play the character for Matt Reeves (a suite is expected for October 1, 2027 in the cinema).

Two versions of Dark Knight that will coexist on our screens. Directed by Andy Muschietti (The Flash),, Batman: The Brave and the Bold The comics of Grant Morrison will be inspired. No release date yet.
