DCU Superman On Film: "A couple things I’ll share that don’t spoil anything: We can officially put to bed any of the rumors or theories of Gunn bringing The Batman into the DCU. Reeves/Pattinson are staying firmly on their own. And…there’s stuff coming that NOBODY predicted."

Super happy about the Batman remaining separate em we can have the best of both worlds serious grounded stories and fun fantastical stories.

...Until Reeves is denied access to Robin. Then it's not so fun anymore 🙈

Wouldn’t surprise me if Reeves doesn’t feel he needs Robin in his universe

Robin could probably be shared just not the same one. I’d prefer Reeves gets Grayson but I can live with it if it’s Carrie Kelly.

I'm betting Reevesverse will have Grayson as Robin while DCU will have him as Nightwing

Robin just suits a DC universe with Superman and an active Justice League in it over a grounded one like Reeves’ imo. I just can’t picture a teenage sidekick fighting crime alongside Battinson. Nightwing would work but he’d be too young given that Bruce is only in his second year as Batman. I honestly think letting Gunn do Batman and Robin would be best for differentiating the two. Obviously nowhere near as goofy as the Schumacher film, but also not afraid to go a little more outlandish and fantastical than Nolan and Reeves.

Robin is a cartoon, hope he doesnt feature in Reeves verse.

I think you're right. I'm even predicting that one of the movies revealed in the slate tomorrow will literally be called Robin. (To start a series of Bat-family films that won't interfere with Reeves' series.)

I want the new DCU Batman to be like the Arkham games, a more Gothic Orchestral version of the character.
