Looks like Warner Bros. may be trying for a legacy character with Bats.

Maybe that's why they're working on a Nightwing solo film?

Just use the Lazarus Pit to make him younger. It will be a cool way to introduce Lazarus Pit to DCEU too.

@rustyroy: I would agree with this. The problem with going with the legacy route is that there has not been nearly enough time invested to hand someone else the cowl.

Matt Reeves is still on board and that's all I care about. Affleck can get recast or replaced by a legacy character for all I care, he's just popular among a small group of nerds who think they know comics and Batman.

What is more concerning is that they're just being forced to improvise, DOJ and Snyder are like Damocles sword hanging over WB. How can they get Batman wrong to this extent. Its hilarious in a sad way, they had a workable cash cow that's slipping away and they're doing whatever they can to hold on to it.

WB isn't handing Ben away anytime soon. They're damn idiots if they do, the General audience of BvS LOVED Batfleck. Hell he was the best part of the movie to most.

That and it's big facts, that mostly everyone, if not everyone, wants BRUCE in the cowl. I personally do, Bruce is the only Batman for me.

Guess we'll see in less than 24 hours.
