Production

After The Dark Knight Rises was released people wanted another Batman film. So a bunch of actors for Batman were thrown around. Wes Bently, Armie Hammer, Eric Bana, Matt Bomer and Jon Hamm. For the Batman reboot they wanted a slightly older Batman and a older love interest for Bruce. Naiomi Watts was cast and said she was Vicki Vale. The first Script had Batman and Robin fighting Joker and Man Bat but the second script had  Batman in his third year and going up against The Court of Owls and finding out he has a brother.

Reception

The whole movie was great and a Critic said it is more cooler then than the Dark Knight  trilogy. The whole cast was very good. The Batsuit was the same one from Batman new 52 comic.

Sequel

Shane Black stated that a sequel is being planned and Jon Hamm, Geoffry Rush, Denzell Washington, Naomi Watts are reprising their roles. The name of the film will be The Batman Gotham Nights and it will be released in 2019.

Note

I picked Jon Hamm because i like the idea of an older Batman.
