It’s even tempting to wonder if all those ill-founded reports of the Haverfordwest-born actor’s return that emerged around the time of Man of Steel’s release might have had some substance after all. Bale has even said previously that he would return as Batman in a heartbeat if Nolan showed him a brilliant script. The Nolan-Bale version of Wayne had retired previously as the caped crusader between The Dark Knight and its sequel, only to return, so there would have been no reason to stop him coming back for future episodes. The idea that Gordon-Levitt might have been the only option as the new Batman is, of course, nonsense. “Maybe that’s why we didn’t do it,” said Snyder. We did talk about it a little bit,” said Snyder, hinting that one of the reasons behind the final decision to start afresh was the fact that Christian Bale’s Bruce Wayne had quit as Batman in 2012’s The Dark Knight Rises, leaving Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s John Blake as the only candidate to play the caped crusader in future films. Far-fetched, right? Well not according to Zack Snyder, who this week told MTV’s Josh Horowitz that the idea of setting subsequent DC films in Nolan’s universe was indeed discussed in the early days of development for the Superman reboot before being quietly put to one side.
