Overview
- The Hollywood Reporter confirms Christina Hodson is scripting The Brave and the Bold, with sources saying she has been at work since at least the fall.
- The film is set to introduce the DCU’s Batman alongside Damian Wayne’s Robin in a continuity separate from Robert Pattinson’s Matt Reeves-led films.
- Studio sources indicate a definitive draft is not imminent as development proceeds deliberately, and no release date has been set.
- Andy Muschietti remains attached to the project, though his ultimate involvement depends on availability as his commitments increase after Welcome to Derry.
- James Gunn recently reiterated he will wait for an “actionable script” and does not plan to release two Batman movies in the same year, with the hiring news drawing mixed online reaction.
