Matt Reeves To Direct The Upcoming Batman Solo - Part 1

[Pennywise]

Mario Robles said Todd Phillips pitched the Joker idea to WB pre-BvS in 2016, with a grain of salt of course but interesting info nonetheless.

Wow! Do you have a link where he said that? If true, it's interesting WB may have planned this about two years ago!

Hey sorry I think it was from this podcast

if not it's one of the episode 48 or 49? or the BOF vlog where Mario attended, but most likely the one I gave you?

He definitely said it's been planned for a while and only got out a few months ago by Borys of THR.

Campea is suggesting that some big DC news is going to break in the next month and people won't be happy with it. Now everyone's speculating that Reeves is going to walk.

I swear to God.

 

[I Am The Knight]

Wouldn't surprise me since this is the DCEU but I would have to wonder why would he leave? It seems like he was making sure he would have creative freedom back when he was negotiating for the job and I don't see WB screwing that up, especially after JL.

 

[Boom]

Might have to do with the recent changes in leadership over there.

That or Campea knows that DC news draws a lot of attention his way, particularly if it's negative.

She'd be a really good choice for the role!

 

[Astro13Zombie]

I just saw the video where Campea first mentions the information he has.
The guy is clearly just desperate for attention.

Sounds about right!

I don't get how teasing a huge scoop, then supposedly tell your friend, and then when something big happens in the next...1-2 years, your buddy comes out and claim "yup, he said that way back" is suppose to prove that you're legit?

I could do the same thing right now.

Yup.

In fact, I knew you were going to say this--via a friend last week who clued me in on the scoop. Makes me legit.

 

[Loden Greatstorm]

I’m so sick and tired of Campea. He is the definition of an attention ****e.

 

[KevTravels]

So is it pretty for sure that this might have a neo-noir/detective type feel to it?

I'd love to see that type of Batman story on the big screen.

The general public might not, but I definitely do.

Not to instill any unneeded fear, but Mario's comments are a little bit old. He mentioned on Twitter earlier he'll give an update on the matter on a podcast tomorrow.

But from what I gather, the news he's probably going to say is this: Matt is still working on The Batman, but some folks higher up are getting a bit impatient with him and want to make the movie sooner rather than later. That doesn't mean he's out, but it could possibly result in some problems down the road.

Take all of that with a grain of salt though. But yeah, Campea's gone off the deep end with this.

I will say though, despite my championing of Reeves as the director for Batman, I don't think it'd necessarily be all doom and gloom if he does leave the project in the near(ish) future. There's other directors out there that they could get to replace him and do a great job with the film, just like how Affleck isn't irreplaceable as Batman either.

Hell, if the worst does happen and Reeves departs and things fall through with Jake Gyllenhaal, my dream pick would be Warner Bros nabs Alex Garland for Batman with the agreement that he'll get to make Swamp Thing afterward and Garland brings on his homeboy Oscar Isaac to replace Affleck as Batman.

But that's all speculation and wishing on my part.

 

[Gamma Goliath]

As much as I like Oscar Isaac I just can't see him as Batman

Reeves just twiited and denied leaving The Batman

Mario's podcast was from last week, but he should have a new podcast in the next 12 hours, he said it's not Sup, Reeves nor Reboot in his tweets.

But...but Umberto Matt, Campea said he didn't say it was you!
