NIGHTWING Film In The Works At Warner Bros. From THE LEGO BATMAN MOVIE Director Chris McKay
Well, this came out of nowhere! Following the news that Matt Reeves is now officially on board The Batman, it's being reported that Warner Bros. also has a Nightwing movie in the works. Check it out...
On the heels of the announcement that Matt Reeves will helm The Batman, THR is reporting that Warner Bros. also has plans for a movie focusing on Nightwing, who, as DC Comics fan will be well aware, began his superhero career as the original Robin.
The LEGO Batman Movie director Chris McKay is apparently in talks to helm the picture, which would mark the big-screen debut of Dick Grayson... in live-action form, at any rate. Of course, McKay previously brought us an animated version of the character, as voiced by Michael Cera.
Bill Dubuque (The Accountant) is writing the screenplay, but we have no word on who'll be producing the film.
What do you guys think of this news? Any thoughts on who could play Nightwing? Sound off in the usual place.
