Overview
- Will Arnett told Variety he would love to reprise his comedic Lego Batman, praising collaborators Phil Lord, Chris Miller, and Chris McKay.
- A planned sequel targeted for 2022 with McKay stalled after The Lego Movie 2 underperformed and Lego film rights moved to Universal while DC stayed with Warner Bros.
- The next Lego Batman outing in gaming, Legacy of the Dark Knight, is set for May 29, 2026 with Shai Matheson voicing Batman instead of Arnett.
- DC Studios is developing The Brave and the Bold as a separate Batman reboot under James Gunn and Peter Safran, with a new live-action actor yet to be named.
- Coverage notes fan speculation about broader casting possibilities, but there is no indication Arnett is being considered for DCU’s live-action role.
