Despite the high hopes and buzz surrounding the Batman reboot film, DC Studios co-lead James Gunn has delivered news that dampens the enthusiasm. Gunn, overseeing the project as part of his Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters slate, has indicated that the casting for the new Batman is “miles and miles away.” This update implies a significant delay in the movie’s progress, particularly in casting the pivotal role of Bruce Wayne.
Casting Challenges and Speculations
The casting for the new Batman remains a mystery, with Gunn admitting that no decisions have been made yet. He stated, “We don’t even have a script, and there’s a strike happening, so, no, no casting.” This uncertainty leaves fans in the dark about who will don the iconic cape and cowl next. Speculations have been rife, with names like Jensen Ackles, Nicolas Hoult, and John Krasinski being floated as potential candidates.
