Thoughts?
And CW still can't show the Batman after all these years.
The Arrowverse doesn't really need a Batman. I'm fine with Batman never showing up in the CW universe.
@magian: Fox has been using Bruce Wayne for 5 years though. Infact they had a deal with WB granting them exclusive control of Batman and affiliated characters. Suffice to say I dont think its a coincidence that Batwoman and now this are happening after Gotham wraps up.
I'm already hoping that Deathstroke kills him.
@entropy_aegis: They did, huh? Didn't know that. I suppose that explains it, yeah.
Anyway, as for the casting itself, don't know if he is the right choice really. Honestly, he looks more like Ra's Al Ghul than Bruce to me. But I don't think he is a bad choice either though.
Not sure about his acting, but visually he isn’t there. I don’t get a Bruce Wayne or Batman vibe from him at all. I’ll see how he turns out when a poster or some footage is released.
@wolfrazer: For a guy playing a Batman whose first Robin is 24 at most? Kinda is... Imo
@stormshadow_x: I mean judging from what I saw about his GoT character, looks like he can still move and fight pretty well.
@wolfrazer: I'm not disputing that personally. I don't even watch GOT but he is a it older than people probably expected and doesnt have a Bruce Wayne face to quitea few of us. Though it could all work out fine honestly.
@stormshadow_x: Eh I'm just remaining optimistic, I mean people didn't think this whole DC Universe streaming thing would work out and look at it now. People like it.

I don't think he's 24, more like 29. IIRC they say "15 years ago" a few times and he looks 13/14 in said flashbacks. But yeah, still getting on a bit. If Dick's 28/29 I was expecting more like a 42 - 45 year old Batman.
@rogueshadow: I agree.
