Wednesday, 24 June 2020 15:12

Michael Keaton, who famously played the superhero last in 1992’s Batman Returns, is in talks to reprise the character.

According to reports, Keaton could step back into the DC universe for the Andy Muchietti-directed The Flash.

He will appear alongside Ezra Miller, who's taking on the role of Barry Allen, aka The Flash, in a story that's based on the 2011 comic Flashpoint.

And, if the deal is signed, Keaton could possibly return not just for The Flash but possibly for several other DC-oriented film projects.
