Andy Muschietti Teases That Updates on DCU’s THE BRAVE AND THE BOLD Are Coming Soon
The DC Universe is getting a new version of Batman with The Brave and the Bold, but so far, fans have been left waiting for real updates. Now, it looks like that wait for information might be coming to an end.
Andy Muschietti, the filmmaker behind The Flash, is directing the upcoming DCU Batman film, which was first revealed to explore the relationship between Bruce Wayne and his son, Damian Wayne.
While details have been scarce since the project’s announcement, Muschietti recently offered fans a small but exciting update.
When asked by Variety about the status of the movie, Barbara Muschietti, Andy’s sister and producing partner, said, "The intention is yes, but we can’t talk about it."
Andy chimed in, adding, "We have to wait a few, a couple of months to start talking about it." Then, realizing he might’ve said more than he should have, he laughed, "I screwed it already."
That playful comment is the first real hint we’ve had in months that The Brave and the Bold is actually moving forward, and that we might not be far off from hearing more about the new cinematic Batman.
Before this, the most recent update came from James Gunn, in which he teased that the project was still in flux, saying, "No, I think you have to wait to see the movie. Some things have changed.
“Plenty of things are in flux on what his situation is with his parentage and all that stuff, so I wouldn't take any of it – Yeah, I mean, the actor who wants to... Listen, first of all, I can't tell you the amount of big actors that have told me they want to be Batman."
He went on to add, "I think you'd have a harder time finding actors who don't want to be Batman. He's the one character everyone wants to play. That's the truth."
While we wait to see who ultimately dons the cape and cowl in The Brave and the Bold, fans can at least rest easy knowing that updates are on the horizon.
In the meantime, Robert Pattinson will continue his own version of Gotham’s protector when he returns in The Batman: Part II, set for release in 2027.
