Fans have been clamouring for a Batman Beyond animated film for quite a while, including nerd movie producer Kevin Smith. The director made waves when he recently proposed a live-action adaptation with Michael Keaton coming back to reprise the role.
KEVIN SMITH TO RETURN?
“Could you imagine? Oh my God…that movie makes a billion, right there man,” Smith said on his Fat Man on Batman podcast. “If you’re like Michael Keaton’s coming back, people like ‘how is that possible’ and you’re like ‘because he’s Batman Beyond B****’ and people are ‘oh f*** we wanted this our whole lives!’ This is f****** good and I am down with this. When can we go?”
Warner Bros. still can’t seem to formally declare the animated project, however fan reaction to these releases motivates them to make a move sooner than later.
