DCU Fan Art Imagines James Gunn’s Batman and Robin

When James Gunn and Peter Safran announced their new DC Studios slate, they also revealed that they would be casting a new Batman for an upcoming movie titled The Brave and the Bold. They also revealed that the film will focus on a father-son dynamic, with Damian Wayne appearing as Robin. Since the announcement, there have been no announcements regarding The Brave and the Bold, but some fans have ideas for who they want to play the characters. Two artists on Instagram go by the handles of @Subi.Ozil and @Clements. Ink teamed up to create a design that shows Star Wars‘ Sam Witwer and Mystic Xu Insho as Batman and Robin, respectively. In the fan art, we see Witwer and Insho suit up as the Dynamic Duo with modernized versions of their classic looks. While there are no actors rumored to play Batman or Robin in The Brave and the Bold, and there probably won’t be for quite some time, this still reminds us that the possibilities are endless.

What is the Next Big Film Being Released by DC Studios?

The next big movie the studios has coming out will be Shazam! Fury of the Gods on March 17th. Warner Bros. Pictures and New Line describe the film as follows: “Bestowed with the powers of the gods, Billy Batson and his fellow foster kids are still learning how to juggle teenage life with having adult Super Hero alter-egos. But when the Daughters of Atlas, a vengeful trio of ancient gods, arrive on Earth in search of the magic stolen from them long ago, Billy—aka Shazam—and his family are thrust into a battle for their superpowers, their lives, and the fate of their world.”

What’s Happening at DC Studios? 

Gunn and Safran began their jobs as Co-CEO’s of DC Studios last year and it’s safe to say that the future of DC is looking bright. When the duo was announced by the new Warner Bros. Discovery boss, they released a statement on their excitement for the job.

“We’re honored to be the stewards of these DC characters we’ve loved since we were children,” Gunn and Safran added in a joint statement. “We look forward to collaborating with the most talented writers, directors, and actors in the world to create an integrated, multilayered universe that still allows for the individual expression of the artists involved. Our commitment to Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Harley Quinn, and the rest of the DC stable of characters is only equaled by our commitment to the wonder of human possibility these characters represent. We’re excited to invigorate the theatrical experience around the world as we tell some of the biggest, most beautiful, and grandest stories ever told.”
