Despite the news on the DCU’s Batman movie – The Brave and the Bold – running cold for some time as Warner Bros focuses on Superman’s family and Matt Reeves’ The Batman: Part II, it seems we might be close to learning who has been cast as the franchise’s new Dark Knight. Industry commentator John Campea has revealed he believes the DCU’s Batman has already been cast. Obviously, it’s best to keep an open mind about such reports, and Campea says he’s checking with more sources, but the name that’s come up is a surprise, and he’s had multiple sources confirm already:
“I think I know who Batman is. I think I know who DCU Batman is. I think [DC’s] cast him. I had somebody write to me about a particular person that they believe it just got cast. I get a lot of those I don’t pay attention to a lot of them. But then, I heard from somebody else who’s a little bit more well-positioned that verified that it looks like this is the guy and they don’t know I talked to the first person at all. So, I sent that pick to a Hollywood producer I know and like what do you think? So, I think I know who it is. I’m not going to say it right now, but I will say this: it’s not a name I would’ve guessed and I don’t think it’s a bad name, but it’s not a name I would’ve guessed. Yeah, not a name I would’ve guessed. I’m going to keep putting out feelers because I don’t want to say who I believe is going to be the next Batman until I’m a little more certain because yeah, I don’t want to spread misinformation. So, we’ll see.”
