Movie DC Universe - News, updates and discussion

I quite like him as an actor he was very good in Good Time and The Lost City of Z.

Im not sure he is Batman I would have gone with Hammer but willing to give him a chance. Has the all important jaw line lol

 

[vast]

I have no doubts he’ll be a great Bruce Wayne but still reservations on Batman..

Played a vampire now going to play the Bat?

 

[Ry009]

Nicholas Hoult rumored as well.

Not the worst casting, reckon he can pull off doing Bruce/Bats.

What number reboot will this be?

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Fans theorising the film could be based on Arkham Origins, makes sense especially if the film is going to be more detective based. Ambitious.

 

[Stevi_Tigers]

Villains will be penguin and cat woman

From what I’m reading, yes these details such as his jaw line are critical.

And I believe it’s just down to him and Hoult, who have both conducted numerous screen tests, auditions, costume tests, voice tests etc.

DC Films are adopting a similar approach to Marvel’s casting of Holland as Spider-Man, ranking them across the board on many of the above (and more) aspects. I like this meticulous approach. The process has been ongoing since January this year I believe, and I don’t think a final decision is as close as was reported yesterday (a few outlets seemed to jump the gun a bit).

It’s not necessarily a reboot, more so picking up early-ish in his career. Definitely liking what I’m hearing about the detective aspect. Penguin is due, it’s been 27 years since Batman Returns, 29 by the time this is released.

A few rumours continue to rumble about this perhaps joining the ‘Elseworlds’ (not that DC is calling it that, just my interpretation) setting that Joker is in.

With Affleck done, and the JL ensembles off the table for now, DC have the freedom to do this. They’re not necessarily locked into continuing Affleck’s depiction.

WB are supposedly head over heels with Phoenix’s performance. Although he reportedly hasn’t signed one of those multi picture deals, it can very easily change if they then want to incorporate him into a future film (the age gap isn’t insurmountable and it could very well work).

But early days for that, I haven’t heard any of the more reputable sites I follow run with this so quite unlikely I’d say.

What the hell is Batwomen trying to do as a series?

 

[Bomberboyokay]

Wouldn't give him an Oscar for High Life but had no idea he was the Twilight guy until after I watched it (haven't watched Twilight). Won't be an issue unless they insist on prettying him.

Ana De Armas as Selina please .. ooft

Wonder Woman 1984 pushed back from Dec 2019 to June 2020, but now apparently it's all complete and Patty Jenkins wants the prev release date haha

Best to ignore CW content.

I think that was a wise move to change the date, with The Rise Of Skywalker due this December.

What do we do with this information.

 

[glenferry23]

Great choice.

 

[vast]

Cool. Good year for him was also cast as the lead in Nolans new film coming out next year.

 

[Biggie]

I reserve any judgment till I watch him play the part.

Hopefully he does well, all the best to him.

 

[JackOutback]

Great choice.

Reckon he'll surprise plenty.

Bigger question is who the villain will be and who will play him. Batman seems to be more defined by his villain than other superheroes.

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Reports say the villains are Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler and I’m inputting here possibly Scarecrow.

im more worried about the script and matt reeves. While I thought the last 2 apes movies where good im not sure he has something truly great in him considering he is still following in Nolans footsteps but still think it will be pretty good.
