Could Christian Bale Return As Batman In The DCEU?

The fallout from Justice League is set to bring about changes at Warner Bros. and its forthcoming superhero releases. To be clear, I don’t think the movie deserves the backlash it received – it’s disproportionate to the actual quality of the product – but the financial disappointment will make the execs sit up and take notice.

Unfortunately, it also appears as if we’ve seen the last of Batfleck. The rumours aren’t going away and Ben Affleck doesn’t seem all that interested in portraying the Dark Knight anymore. Considering all the attention and constant scrutiny he has to endure because of the role, do you really blame him?

Jake Gyllenhaal Batman

So, the big question is, who’s replacing him in Matt Reeves’ The Batman? The latest rumour, thanks to YouTuber John Campea, points to Jake Gyllenhaal. Whether he’ll play a younger Batman or be a straight swap for Affleck, no one knows. Heck, we don’t even know if it’s true or not right now.

But what if there’s another to usher out Batfleck and delight the fans? Well, Flashpoint might be the solution here.

Since DC deals with Multiverses, there’s a possibility that the films could fall into this category, too. We’ve already heard Danny Elfman’s Batman theme and John Williams’ iconic Superman score used in Justice League, so why not explore other movie worlds as well?

Christian Bale Batman

Imagine this for a second: Flashpoint deals with the Flash screwing up the timeline and we experience Jeffrey Dean Morgan as Thomas Wayne/Flashpoint Batman. At the end of the movie, another Batman is introduced into the current continuity and it’s Christian Bale’s Batman who steps out of the Nolanverse.

The Internet would have a meltdown and it would be an ingenious move on the part of Warner Bros. to bring in a fan-favourite Dark Knight into its current universe. Sure, we’d still have those tough guy trolls who’d say Bale wasn’t a good Batman and blah, blah, but who really cares what they think?! If it wasn’t for the Dark Knight trilogy, we wouldn’t be here discussing comic book movies, so shut your pie hole and go watch Catwoman.

Reeves has already spoken of his admiration for Nolan’s Batman movies and his desire to tell a crime drama story in Gotham City. In other words, he wants to continue the good work that Nolan did, but in his own movie (or trilogy). Bale has the track record with the character and this type of positive news is what the DCEU needs right now. It’s something that would make sense and possibly turn around the poor word of mouth that the franchise is suffering from at the moment.

What do you think? Would you like to see Christian Bale return as Batman in the DCEU? Let us know in the comments section.

    It’s what they should have done in the first place. The perfect tie in would have been Cavill rescueing Bale from the batplane before the bomb. And Batman didn’t remember because Cavill dropped him somewhere as per his good deed and run image.

    I WOULD BE HEAD- OVER- HEELS TO SEE KFM USED BY “MOSHE” IN THE DCEU. I WOULD’VE LOVED IS BALE USED SOME KFM IN THE HITTITE BATTLE IN EXODUS: GODS AND KINGS. CHRISTIAN BALE AS BATMAN IN THE DCEU WOULD BE FUCKING AWESOME.

    NOTE: IF THEY’RE THINKING ABOUT A BATMAN BEYOND FILM: MICHAEL KEATON AS THE ELDERLY BRUCE WAYNE, WITH A FRESH FACE AS TERRY McGINNIS.

    For all you aflek dick riders he is by far the shittiest Batman there is if any of you not wits read the fuckin comic books you would know the damn difference in the movies Christian Bale was the portrayed Batman of Frank Miller just as Heath Leadger was the joker Christopher Nolan took his own spin on it if you rewind back to the Keaton days that was all Bob Kane’s Batman TIM BURTON said so himself that he wanted to portray that style of Batman and to take it even further the only person who ultimately stuck somewhat to the actually comics was the creator of the adventures of Batman and Robin cartoon so stop being fuckin haters and pissing and moaning about wether or not who’s the best Batman they all did a good job in there roles some way granite Clooney wasn’t the best but hey that movie made millions so guessing he did something people liked just a food for thought..

    Unsure about Bale doing a 4th Batman? I bought the Dark Knight Trilogy disc set with the 3 additional discs of extra insights including how they developed the dark Knight stories and filming and it is excellent. Seeing the story behind the dark Knight trilogy causes me to realize that it’s not just Christian Bale who needs to return for a 4th batman but also Christopher Nolan. So much of this new generation batman exists within the non superhero, more humanistic brand of batman belonging to Nolan and his brother who were huge batman fans since childhood. If Bale comes back then Chris Nolan has to also. In the extra discs in the trilogy set Nolan talks about a unique concept he put into the Dark Knight Trilogy, the idea of casting well known actors both of the day and from a previous generation. This adds a pop to the story line, having Oscar nominated actors – or those with Academy Awards -:playing supportive roles. It adds a richness to the movie tapestry not found in casting with lesser known actors. So, if Bale returns so should Michael Caine, Rutger Hauer, Morgan Freeman and so many of the other great supportive actors. Nolan got them to sign on, the likes of Michael Caine and Gary Oldman, by telling them he wanted to cast them in a supportive role with enough potential that they could “steal” the show with a powerful performance. Watching Caine in Batman Begins after hearing that on one of the extra disc about the making of the trilogy, I could see Caine striving to “steal” the show -:Oldman too – and that makes their work and the movie so much better. Enough said. Get the boxed set, six discs, 22 bucks at Walmart and you have all 3 movies and the background discs. Watch all of it and then you will know what it really means to bring Bale back as Batman, how difficult that would be and yet, why it should happen along with all the other elements that go into it. Some of us have the rare opportunity of doing something great in life, a very few get to do something legendary. Watching the Dark Knight Trilogy and the background discs allows us the privilege of seeing Bale, Nolan, Liam Neeson, Morgan Freeman, and many others as they do something that rises to a pinnacle in their lives, a special mountain top in their acting, a legendary performance. And strangely enough, as we watch them living a dream and becoming theatrical legends, they inspire us to do our best and to do something truly great – whatever that might be.

    Christian Bale is the only Batman that deserves to wear the cape. He’s also the only Bruce Wayne deserving enough to live in Wayne mansion. I say give him the whopping $100 million to do a fourth Batman and then cast me somewhere in it; I would love to get trounced by the caped crusader or ran over by the bat mobile. Not asking for much but sure about Christian Bale. I’ve seen Batman Begins 100 times at least!

Anyone else is just second best. Will hope for future generations of the Batman to be bale, Really miss his role in these film’s.

    I HATED HIS portrayal of the dark knight. Nolan’s view of Batman and his origin,even his villians were great (outside of his bland view of Bane) I hated watching Bale fight,
    His voice was that of a drunk gargling marbles in his mouth
    And he was just a terrible Batman. Far worse than the campy 66 daylight driving Batman of West.(and I don’t even compare his portrayal to any other that we have seen. Simply put…West was a campy show. He knew that so did we. He gets a pass. I rather enjoyed the show in its own right note than Bale in the suit. That’s just my opinion.

      That’s funny since Batfleck is CGI and wire-assisted while copying the fighting moves from the Dark Knight Trilogy. Batfleck never bulked up like Bale did, having gone from “The Machinist” to “Batman Begins”. He didn’t stand atop the Sears Tower in the Batsuit like Bale did. And he certainly didn’t prod the producers to let him bungie jump a scene like Bale tried – the Hong Kong tower scene – but was prevented from doing thanks to the film’s insurance companies. So it’s quite the opposite you suggest. Bale also looks like Bale in his trilogy; Batfleck looks like Timothy Olyphant in the DCEU films which begs the question why Warner/DC didn’t hire Olyphant in the first place.

        Muss is not necessary for someone to be scary. Batfflec wasn’t scary even fat – he had to rely to cruel murdering and still that was not enough. Bale’s Batman could stand in a universe with super heroes – if he defeated Joker he could defeat every super hero.

    Part of the problem with DC’s casting is they went for names and not necessarily talent. Not saying Affleck sucks, I like him as bats. But I fee that if they may have found a lesser known person they wouldn’t have his problem. Like a majority of Marvel’s were mostly unknowns except for a few and they’re happy to continue their roles. Just my opinion.

      Names don’t guarantee a blockbuster. It takes more than a recognizable face to make a role. An actor has to look the part and really be able to sell the character. That’s why George Clooney said that he will never criticize another actor who plays Batman: even he thinks he totally butchered the role.
