Warner Bros. has no quick plans to get its Batman films underway, however director Chris McKay is holding Dick Grayson on the entrance of his thoughts. The DCEU not too long ago introduced plans to broaden its Bat-Household by rolling out solo movies for Batgirl and Nightwing. And, now, followers can get get a glimpse at how McKay plans to contextualize the latter standalone.

“The story of Dick Grayson, changing into Robin, then changing into Nightwing performed out for us, the viewers, within the comics in REAL TIME. It wasn’t a flashback. We skilled it. So all of Robin/Nightwing’s successes and failures we have been alongside for the experience,” McKay wrote.
“Those that underestimated Robin or dismissed him maybe had their opinions modified as we watched him “develop up” proper in entrance of us. His relationships, his conflicts with Batman et al felt actual to me as a result of he was the window character with which we skilled Gotham Metropolis.”
For now, there is no such thing as a telling how McKay hopes to border Nightwing’s creation, however followers mustn’t anticipate the DCEU to provide Grayson a straight-forward origin story. The movie might use flashbacks to gloss over the boy’s unique partnership with Bruce Wayne as Batman and go away McKay to select up with Nightwing throughout a run-of-the-mill mission.
Earlier than Nightwing can get his personal movie, followers will see the DCEU roll out its personal Batman standalone. Matt Reeves has been introduced on to direct The Batman, so the movie might make just a few asides to Nightwing’s presence within the DCEU as a lead-in for McKay. Plus, followers should not rely out a nod to the vigilante within the Justice League film. The movie’s trailers have seen Jim Gordon reward Batman for working with others once more, so Grayson might get a name-drop if followers are fortunate.
