Keaton to return as batman/wayne in the flash?

[powersthatbe]

there's news that talks will soon take place for him to be in the flash movie. And I say, don't play with my emotions like that

Source?

I wonder if the movie will have Flash jumping to different earths or jumping through time?

People are thnking Batman Beyond. I think it's actually Kingdom Come for HBO Max.

That would rule!

I will believe in when or if they actually start to film Flash: Flashpoint movie. Exar Miller Flash has be delayed so many times....

I have been saying for years they need to get Michael Keaton for a Batman Beyond film. I would rather see that, but if he's in a similar role here, it would make sense, and could work as a bigger budget version of the CW Crisis event.

Too bad Marvel has already staked a claim on the Multiversal aspect with Doctor Strange and the Multiverse of Madness. DC should have never tried to abandon the multiverse concept in the first place. At one time it's what set them apart from Marvel.

The Spiderverse in that animated Spider-Man movie is my favorite thing out of Marvel in a long time.

I have to admit, I’m not terribly interested in a Flash movie, so if Keaton is going to play Batman again, I probably won’t see it until the clip hits YouTube.

^Oh yeah, I don't begrudge Marvel exploring the concept, like Spider-Verse, which was wonderful. But DC invented the idea of the multiverse in comics, so it's a shame they stupidly never tried to do anything with it in other media before.

Love the 89 film and I have no interest in this if they go Batman Beyond or Kingdom Come with it. I don't want to ruin the 89 movie with a bitter old infirmed Bruce Wayne. Ignore the Schumacher movies and recast the part and make sequels in the original 89 continuity. The Burtonverse had a distinct timeless look that still works today.

In "Flash of Two Worlds", correct? (He asks the man with "Earth 2" in his handle and Jay Garrick for an avatar ) Then, that makes it really fitting to use "The Flash" movie to bring the concept to the DC Movie Universe. (although with Bruce Wayne instead of Jay Garrick)

And I would love to see Michael Keaton in the role again.

It easy to blame Snyder since he's the one who refused to work with CW shows, but it's really the fault of the now-jettisoned WB execs including Johns who was originally a proponent then caved. It's amazing how Kevin Tshujira wrecked that studio and was able to ghost because of affairs and whatnot. The guy trashed everything Roven and Tull had built.

uggh no thanks. Leave the old movies where they are and move on. I don't know if the newest one is going to stick or not but I'd rather see something new done than retreads. Keaton will probably be a Kingdom Come or DKR cameo in the movie.

[Nostalgiabuff]

it actually might generate a lot of interest for the movie. I don't know that Keaton would only go for a cameo roll for it though

I should add the the chance of this still being Ezra as the main Barry Allen is about 1 in 4. I think he ends up representing the Snyderverse like he did on CW, but we're either going to end up with a different Barry or maybe Wally.
