Will there ever be a point and time when thereisn’tsome form of Bat-related media afoot?Gothamis coming to an end, butTitansstill exists on DC Universe. Meanwhile,Pennyworth, the show about a young Alfred, will premiere on Epix later this year. Then, of course, there’s theBirds of Preymovie, due out next year. And Matt Reeves' newBatmanreboot, which has yet to find its Bruce Wayne. That makes theBatmanmovie one step behindTitans, becauseDeadlinereports Iain Glenn will play the reclusive billionaire on the show’s second season.
Here’s a character description for Glen’s Bruce Wayne:
After decades of fighting crime as Batman, billionaire Bruce Wayne is just as driven to protect Gotham from evil as he was in his prime. Needing to reconcile his relationship with Dick Grayson, the duo hope to forge a new dynamic as Bruce tries to help his former sidekick and the Titans achieve success.
There’s no indication yet if Glen will actually put on a batsuit at some point, but I’m going to guess no. The “after” at the start of the character description suggests to me that Bruce has hung-up his cape and cowl. But you never know – he might slip it back on at some point.
