Overview
- Gunn told Collider he has not yet begun the casting process and said he is a “big Alan Ritchson fan.”
- Ritchson has emerged as a fan favorite due to his towering presence and his past DC role as Hawk in Titans.
- Batman first appeared in the DCU as a silhouette cameo in the animated series Creature Commandos ahead of any live-action debut.
- Batman: The Brave and the Bold is the first live-action Batman movie announced for the DCU but remains in early planning.
- Gunn affirmed that The Brave and the Bold will likely avoid a 2027 release to prevent overlap with Matt Reeves’ The Batman 2.
