Jeffrey Dean Morgan has joked that Michael Keaton stole his role in the upcoming The Flash movie which will see Keaton play Batman again.
In Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Jeffrey Dean Morgan played Thomas Wayne.
He’s pretty much perfect for the role, and there were rumours he might be involved in The Flash movie.
