A lot of places are speculating that Batman will be in his 50's... really?

A lot of places are speculating that Batman will be in his 50's... really?

Judging by the leaked footage from Comic Con and the Bat-armor Bruce is wearing in that, it seems they will be taking elements from The Dark Knight Returns.

Ben Affleck is near or at 50+ so yeah.

Ben Affleck is near or at 50+ so yeah.

Ben Affleck still has a ways to go before he is 50+ seeing as he is only 41.

No way is the DCCU Batman going to be 50. Just like how Rises took things from the dark knight returns batman v superman is doing the same thing.

Like how MCU took things from Ultimate Marvel.

Well, from the start of this thing, they've been saying it's "an older Bruce Wayne." And in the pictures I've seen so far, it looks like his hair on the sides is pretty gray.

You are absolutely correct that they have been saying from the start that Ben will be playing "an older Bruce Wayne". But just because he has gray doesn't mean he is going to be playing a 50+ geriatric Batman. I know plenty of people in their 30s who are pretty gray. Hard living takes its toll.

While I don't think he's going to be geriatric by any stretch of the imagination everything they've said points to us having an older Bruce Wayne than we're used to. I see 40's or so for the character.

I agree that I don't think he'll be 50, but I always have thought the idea of an "older Batman" was a bad idea as it kind of paints you into the corner for any future sequels or movies until another reboot.

All right you caught me. I may have been exaggerating, slightly. I just find it interesting how so many are now taking it as fact that BvSoJ is a direct adaptation of The Dark Knight Returns ever since they showed the comic-con teaser.

Obviously there will be borrowed elements form the story and designs but it could never be a direct adaptation. It would just make for a terrible Justice League starting off point.

Well, just like with the comics, I would assume the characters would be eternally stuck around the same ages they were introduced as. Unless of course the movies specifically tell us otherwise.

Wow that's an interesting auto correct. It should have read BvS: DoJ

Batman could be on his 50's for BvS but his solo movies could be prequels.

Batman could be on his 50's for BvS but his solo movies could be prequels.

Or they could be setting up for Nightwing.
