The DC Extended Universe (DCEU) has added a new chapter to its world of superheroes with the release of Batman: The Brave and the Bold. The movie brings a fresh take on the iconic Batman, introducing a new version of the Caped Crusader and his son, Damian Wayne, based on Grant Morrison's comic book series.
The recent DCEU event held by Warner Bros. shed light on the future of the superhero franchise and provided updates on the extensive content coming to the rebooted universe. During the event, it was confirmed that a new Batman would debut in The Brave and the Bold, which is set to be an "unusual" and exciting father-son story, and fans can't wait to see what it has in store for them.
What is The Brave and the Bold about?
The Brave and the Bold is a unique father-son story that focuses on the Caped Crusader and his son, Damian Wayne. The film will introduce the new DC Universe version of the Dark Knight and is described as a fresh take on the iconic superhero. It is expected to give fans a new perspective on the character.
It will also feature the rest of the extended Bat-family, which has been missing from Batman movies for too long, according to James Gunn, one of the co-chairmen and CEOs of DC Studios.
A fresh take on the iconic caped crusader
Fans of the 2022 film The Batman may be disappointed to learn that Robert Pattinson will not be playing the new caped crusader in the James Gunn version of DCEU. Neither will Ben Affleck, who played the character in Zack Snyder's DCEU.
The new Bruce Wayne is yet to be announced, but fans can be rest assured that the film will not interfere with the continuation of Matt Reeves's The Batman trilogy. James Gunn confirmed that he is working with Robert Pattinson on Batman 2 and that Ben Affleck is keen to direct one of their projects.
He said:
"This is the introduction of the DCU's Batman. It is not Robert Pattinson. It is not Ben Affleck. We're working with Robert on The Batman — Part II, and in dealing with that with Matt Reeves."
He continued:
"He continued by saying, I am working with Ben Affleck, who really wants to be—has been a part of our architectural team trying to bring things together, and he really wants to direct one of our projects, and we're excited for him doing that."
A debut for Damian Wayne
Damian Wayne, the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul, will play a significant role in the film. Trained by the League of Assassins, Damian is a highly skilled young assassin and a favorite among fans of the Grant Morrison comic book series.
Damian Wayne's story is said to be based on Grant Morrison's comic book run and will give fans a chance to see the character in live action. Gunn mentioned that the film will bring together all of the elements from the comic book run to create a unique story.
Excitement for the future of the DC Extended Universe
