Who do you most want to see play Batman next?
-
YouTube won't be the same without comicstorianšš RIPšš
-
Scott Adkins is a legit MMA fighter he can play Batman if not he'll be perfect as Deathsroke
-
Please do more of these casting videos and more history of videos
-
There were 3 actors I strongly agree with, Alan Ritchson (1) Ben Barnes (2) Aaron Taylor-Johnson (3) but I would love to see Aaron as James Bond more than Batman.
-
Brandon Sklenar is young enough to be Batman for a while in DCU but old enough to realistically have a kid
-
Jensen Ackles already does the DC animated voice of batman, and he was Solider Boy. He should try out as Bruce Wayne.
-
I am going to be honest: Since David Corenswet is being cast as Superman, finding someone lesser known for the Dark Knight is something I am a bigger fan of. In all honesty, my favorite name thrown around is Ethan Peck, grandson of legendary actor Gregory Peck, whom some artwork of Bruce Wayne was modeled after. Not only does Ethan look the part, but he's physically big, friends with David, and I can buy seeing him going into stories like Court of Owls, Hush, Red Hood, Tower of Babel, Public Enemies, etc etc. I did buy Alan Ritchson for a minute after seeing his physicality in The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, but he'd also make a great Green Arrow going by that performance. Maybe one day I'll do my casting and my version of James Gunn's DCU from what we know so far, but for now, I'm going with Ethan Peck.

Brandon Skenlar for Batman, Everyone on the list are too old and James Gunn already confirmed on a thread response that āBatman Superman age or couple years olderā
-
Alan Ritchson or Aaron Taylor Johnson
-
Danny Devito should play the dark knight
-
I hope they find a less known actor to play batman. Like David Corenswet was less known before superman.
-
Alan Ritchson for me. Dudeās a tank.

My choices: - Ethan Peck - Oliver Jackson Cohen - Alan Ritchson - Tom Bateman - Brett Dalton - Brandon Sklenar
-
Brandon Skenlar would be a better cast for Batman, The famous Fan casting like Jensen and Alan are too just old to play the role, James Gunn on a thread response on February 17 2023 already confirmed that āBatman will be Supermanās age or a couple years olderā
-
Let's be honest with ourselves. It's gonna be Pedro Pascal.
-
Scott Adkins!
-
Literally have the Eastwood's be Old Man Bruce and Terry. Perfect Batman Beyond casting. šÆ
-
Pretty sure James said they wanted mid 30ās to early 40ās for Batman
