RUMOR: Chris Nolan To Produce ‘Justice League’ With Christian Bale Returning As Batman?
Sure, we’ve heard plenty of rumors regarding Warner Bros. planned Justice League film. But this time around, these rumors actually makes sense. According to Latino Review’s El Mayimbe, Warner Bros. has locked in (or is in talks with) Christopher Nolan, who is a producer on Man Of Steel, to produce their upcoming Justice League film alongside Zack Snyder.
Additionally, word is that Snyder’s Man Of Steel is receiving nothing but massive praise and Warner Bros. wants the director to return to direct Justice League as well. This does seem like it would be something that they would be doing after the recent news that Warner Bros. has decided to toss out Will Beall’s script for the film. Word is that they may pursue having David Goyer work on a script alongside Christopher Nolan for the film. But, that’s not the biggest part of this news at all. So, ever since the film was first announce, what has fans number one concern been when it came to this film? Well, that would be Batman and what Warner Bros was planning to do when it came to the character.
With Warner Bros. bringing on Nolan to produce, they’re hoping that he will also be able to convince Christian Bale to come on and reprise the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman in Justice League. This would then result in establishing a DC Cinematic Universe right off the bat and remove confusion regarding a new actor taking up the role. If Bale does come on, it could mean we may actually get an answer regarding the ending of The Dark Knight Rises. So, it’s a win-win situation here if this turns out to be true.
Plus, who doesn’t want to see Bale and Cavill teaming up on the big screen? Bale himself even stated that if Christopher Nolan asked him to do a fouth film, he’d more than excited to do it. Unlike all the negative news we’ve heard surrounding this project, and there has been plenty, this is actually a bit of good news and appears that Warner Bros. may actually be heading in the right direction with this project. For now though, this one is definitely falling in the rumor department until we get some form of official announcement. Be sure to check back and see if we light up the Bat signal regarding this one.
