Wow this guy got me hyped. I'm so ready for this movie

 

[Buckle]

they'll skip right past Tim and have Damien

Heres hoping anyway.

Damian is the only Robin I ever liked.

 

[Kelsdesu]

Also, they need to get Dylan O'Brian as Dick. It's that boy's time.

I didnt know I wanted this.

 

[Slayven]

There is a live action Nightwing movie?

 

[Nightwing123]

I love all the Robins but I have to agree with people. I only see Dick, Jason and Damian getting the movie treatment while Tim sadly does not (Tho I would love it if he did).

If Damian ever does appear I hope they pick an actor who at least has some middle eastern blood in them.

 

[WarMacheen]

Was American Assassin filmed before Dylan's accident?
Edit: Googled the guy and apparently he has 4 metal plates holding one side of his face together. Jesus.

Stunt accident while filming American Assassin, the studio waited for him to recover.

Dick was already killed by Snyder's bloodlust in BvS

Is a movie real if it never really starts?

 

[jett]

It'll be nice if we get a DC movie that doesn't devolve into a CGI-infested third act.

 

[jrush64]

I think Scott McCall would be a better Nightwing.

Yes because that is obviously exclusive to DC movies.

 

[AuthenticM]

I'm not familiar with Dick Grayson, but that description the director gave of the movie sounds really fucking great. So I'm in.

If Reeves Batman is a prequel, it's gonna be weird to see Nightwing, Batgirl, and Batman all be around a similar age.

Zac Efron needs to set up an audition for this

 

[DeathyBoy]

If Jon is there too then I don't mind.
The Goten and Trunks of DC. The fun that we deserve. And need.

Dick > Tim > Carrie > Damian > Stephanie > Jason
But Damian + Jon gets second place.

DCEU Superman would be a terrible father. He'd be sucked off by a Tornado. Red one.

 

[Slayven]

If the movie doesn't have Blockbuster they can pass

[shira]

That actor gonna need a huge fight, gymnastics background

Red Tornado is stuck in the same movie hell that Martian Manhunter will never escape from. But at least there's the Supergirl tv show.

Cavill could be a fun and goofy Superdad with the right director. Costner would be the worst ghost grandad though.

iko uwais to play nightwing or bust.

Ugggggg

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

I edited my post, I meant the Supergirl tv show
But now I have come up with a great theory about Costner's Pa Kent being Darkseid all along. I'll tell you all about it in my upcoming newsletter update.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

That was a set joke.

Guess not, but it has been in every DCEU movie so far.

Remember when Superman made Supergirl tell a little kid he was going to die and there was nothing anyone could do about it?

 

[Alex_Mexico]

A movie that has Batman from afar seen from the perspective of Dick Greyson could be awesome. Dont skip his days as Robin. Id rather have the movie tell me how he went from an orphan to Robing to Nightwing badass! But you cant have that without Batman and Ben Affleck's situation is a shitshow now so who knows.

 

[LegendofDragoonLives]

Great casting choice. Either Dick or Red Hood for the Batman movie. Do it DC.

I don't think he's jumping on any sort of bandwagon. Dude is known for his work in animation, specifically the CGI Lego movies. He's probably just hyped as hell and wants to deliver an authentic Nightwing, which means a lot of stuntwork and somewhat grounded fighting.

 

[Not]

"It's not what you did, son, that angers me so. It's who you did it to."

"Who? That fucking nobody?"

"That 'fuckin' nobody' is Dick Wick. He once was an associate of ours. They call him 'Nightwing.'"

 

[Falchion]

Really excited about a Nightwing movie and this certainly makes it seem like it's going in the right direction.

 

[LewieP]

I still wonder if they're going to go down the "Jared Leto is actually Todd" path, so we can get a recast real Joker.

 

[Shaanyboi]

The director, if nothing else, understands why Dick Grayson matters, why Robin matters, and why that story is integral to Batman's universe.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

Every other character lives in a rough version of the age that they’re in. Very few characters actually grow up in the comics and become something else, and go from being a boy to being an adult, and have their own life and become their own thing.

So it's going to be a superhero Moonlight

 

[Monocle]

Heeeeeeell yes, I want this.

 

[RaySpencer]

Im so happy this thread is about actual Dick Grayson Nightwing, and not some other Nightwing Ive never heard of! haha.

Dick is the best. Best Robin, best Nightwing, best character in the whole DC universe IMO. I would love a movie based around him.

 

[broncobuster]

I still wonder if they're going to go down the "Jared Leto is actually Todd" path, so we can get a recast real Joker.

They never were. Leto is Affleck's age. Ayer called it the dumbest rumor about the movie, and people thought Scott Eastwood's no name character was Dick Grayson, Slade Wilson, Hal Jordon, or Steve Trevor.

Jason Todd is the dead Robin, though. So who knows if Red Hood shows up in one of these movies.

And it's probably nothing but some are running with this idea Finn Wittrock is playing Dick.

Why is Blockbuster the go to young hero jobber?

Yeah. Hopefully they deliver and show people that Robin isn't some "embarrassing" character (seriously hate that narrative).
