Joseph Gordon-Levitt To Play Batman In Justice League Movie? – May Come Sooner Than You Think

At the end of The Dark Knight Rises [SPOILER ALERT] Bruce Wayne leads Joseph Gordon-Levitt's Robin to the Batcave, and leaves it to him. Which was a great end in that Batman can live on forever. DC Comics is looking like they may want to continue what Christopher Nolan built and bring Gordon-Levitt into the Justice League movie. Also, we may see JGL in the Batsuit sooner than you think!

So, now that Marvel's The Avengers worked out so well for them, DC Comics wants a piece of the action. You may have heard that they're trying to work out a Justice League movie. And the way it's looking is that they may be playing the Marvel card and having characters appear at the end of individual films leading up to the Justice League movie.

From HitFlix:

After all, we heard much talk this summer about how the Batman franchise was ending, at least as far as the current version is concerned, and I believe that Nolan was serious when he said that was the last story he had to tell about the character.  But Nolan is working with Warner Bros. on the "Man Of Steel" relaunch this summer, and as we reported earlier today, director Zack Snyder is starting to hint at the idea that his film is part of a larger continuity.

Certainly, the ending of "The Dark Knight Rises" hints at a possible future for the franchise, and there has been much speculation about whether or not they'll work to connect the end of that film to the larger world of DC properties that Warner is so desperate to create.  Over the last couple of weeks, that speculation seems to have turned into conversation, and that conversation seems to be solidifying into a plan.

 

So let's take what we know and speculate a little bit.  How crazy do you think fans would go if Superman were to take to the skies at the end of "Man Of Steel," finally ready to fully accept his role as mankind's most powerful protector, only to have the closing credits interrupted when something catches his attention and he swoops down out of that sky, landing on a rooftop where Jim Gordon stands next to the Bat-Signal, interrupting just as the new Batman arrives for a chat about Gotham's latest problem?

 

Still pure speculations, but, we may be seeing Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the Batsuit at the end of Man Of Steel? I'd be down with that...What are your thoughts?
