Poll Should Robin be a girl in DCEU? (32 votes)

YES 34%
NO 66%

Seeing the batman in Justice league is based off Dark Knight returns, as evident by him wearing the same outfit he wore in the comic.

As well as, Bruce wayne specifically being in his 50's and having spent a lot of time fighting crime in Gotham. It only makes sense that if they ever do a stand alone batman film that they stick to the time period he is at in life and source material and introduce a female robin. This also gives the DC universe batman a distinct look from previous live action films in which robin has always been represented as a male.

Speaking of which who would you cast as Robin?

DCEU Bruce isn't in his fifties, he's supposed to be about 45.

And I say just do Dick/Jason/Barbara and maybe introduce Damian in a Batman solo sequel.

Hendricks is too old to play Robin.

No. We're getting a Batgirl movie anyway, what would be the point?

So your plan for who to play an agile teenager is to cast a 42 year old woman who is only 3 years younger than Batman is supposed to be, and doesn't do action based rolls...

Of a female Robin. I don't think we'd need DCEU Robin to a woman when we're getting a DCEU Batgirl movie.

No. Go with three main Robins and two Batgirls.

If it is a new Robin then that would make sense since the other Robins are their own heroes at this point

Robin's already dead and I think the writers are lazy enough to keep it that way to keep from writing the character

Also, Christina Hendricks would be a terrible choice. She'd be a Robin only 3 years younger than Batman.

Yes but only because I love Kelly Robin.

Also who cares about a Batgirl movie.

Fun fact. Hollywood has a trend of casting older people to play younger characters. It's not uncommon for a person in their 20's, or 30's being cast as a teenage highschool student.

Exaample - cast of save by the bell were all in their 20's when they were suppose to be teenages. Andrew Garfield was 29 when Amazing spiderman 2 came out.Bianca Lawson is 38 yrs old and is playing a highschool student on pretty little lias.

@kingofbbc: long as they look teenage. I recently watched Spiderman homecoming (you should watch it its good). I don't most of them were teenagers but they looked like they were except the main love interest. I'm fine with just looking teenage.
