Armie Hammer is not in talks to play Batman (at least not yet)

[ad_1]

According to rumors, Armie Hammer would be in final talks The Batman for director Matt Reeves – but the report was (potentially) debunked shortly after surfacing. In recent years, the role of Crusader-Caped has been filled by Ben Affleck, who has made three appearances as a character in DC's extended universe. However, after years of rumors and speculation, he officially left Batman, paving the way for a new actor to take over in Reeves' upcoming independent tour, set for 2021.

according to The revenge of the fans, Hammer is the latest talks to be the leader in The Batman. It is important to note that for the moment, the actor has not officially embarked on the project – and this is only a rumor for the moment. On the other hand, however, L & # 39; envelope Umberto Gonzalez tweeted there are currently "no targeted names" and The Batman lead will probably be a younger person than Hammer, who is 32 years old. Screen Rant has contacted the source and will update this message accordingly.

For what it's worth (and it's worth a lot), scooper Borys Kit is also making efforts – stating that any talk about Armie Hammer's cast is premature.

I am not trying to unbolt bunk beds, but considering that everyone is afraid of it, there is no truth to the above. Say there was not even an actor meeting for THE BATMAN. (But that does not mean that Reeves and WB have no idea who they would like) https://t.co/8CB8aHARID

Putting aside if Hammer heard anything from Reeves at this point, many people know that it would be far from Hammer's first rodeo in the field of superhero movies. Back in 2007 he was cast as Batman for George Miller Justice League: Mortal, a Hammer movie is now relieved has never materialized. More recently, the actor had been linked to other DC characters, such as Shazam and Green Lantern, but (if that is true), his career is now complete and he will finally have the opportunity to represent Gotham City's favorite son. Hammer certainly seems to be a strong choice for the game. It sports sweat and charisma to realistically portray a playboy billionaire, and can also easily knock out action scenes (as he demonstrated in The man from U.N.C.L.E.). Hammer is also a complete artist, appearing in dramas of intimate characters (Call me by your name), off-line independent offers (sorry to disturb you) and everything else during his career. There is a reason why he was the bookies' favorite and he might be able to bring something of interest to the role he actually joins. The Batman.

Since The Solitary Ranger collapsed in 2013, Hammer largely avoided tent and franchise fees (UNCLE. there are many who feel it deserves it), but working with someone like Reeves has all its charm. The helmsman has proven himself many times, especially because of his success. Planet of the Apes payments. These films were outstanding for their incredible combination of innovative visual effects and compelling character work, and fans are eager to see what Reeves brings to DC. Hope we'll have a Dark Knight casting soon and The Batman can finally come back to the grandeur of the solo movie and stand alongside other DC blockbuster heroes Wonder Woman and Aquaman.
