Warner Bros. will pay homage to all 40 versions of Batman over the years in the "LEGO" movie spinoff.
During an interview with Empire, “LEGO: Batman” producer Chris Miller teased what was to come in the upcoming film.
“Rest assured that every era of Batman filmmaking will be acknowledged. There have been so many interpretations of Batman and there is so much to play with there. There are 40 versions of his origin story alone,” he said.
It’s unclear if any of the Batman actors, such as Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck, will voice the character other than Will Arnett, but the “LEGO Batman” will be released some time in 2017.
Speaking of Batman versions, another Warner Bros. project that’s been generating a lot of hype is none other than FOX’s “Gotham.” The prequel project has been introducing characters to the franchise, and showrunner Bruno Heller is dishing details about the possible introduction to Harley Quinn.
Before fans get too excited, it will be a while before showrunnrers being in Harley, according to Entertainment Weekly. Heller wants to make sure the show isn’t overloading fans with different story lines.
“One of the things about the size and scope and ambitious of this production is that—it’s not that there’s lots of chefs in the kitchen, but there’s a lot of people with opinions and views and inside knowledge,” Heller told EW.
“That aspect of the show—which characters to use and when — is a source of constant discussion. And that may well have been an issue that came up and was dropped. We haven’t got Harley Quinn in it. Riddler’s girlfriend is coming up. And Harley Quinn is definitely planned for later on, but so far no.”
