James Gunn says DC Studios is getting ready to cast Batman for the DCU, adding that the wait will not be long. The update comes as DC plans for Batman’s debut in Andy Muschietti’s The Brave and the Bold, according to coverage summarising Gunn’s remarks.
The outlets also focus on how Batman’s age will relate to Superman in the DCU. Several reports highlight that Gunn discusses an age range for the actor, aiming for Batman and Superman to be close in age. /Film adds that Gunn also offers new context on Batman’s age in relation to Superman and suggests he may not cast a familiar, well-known actor.
While all sources draw from Gunn’s comments, they vary in emphasis: some lead with the casting timeline, others foreground the actor age-range detail, and one focuses more on the implications for which kinds of performers Gunn may choose.
