Story Plot

It has been ten years since Batman was last seen in public. Some think he is dead, others say he has retired. The true story is known only to the fifty-year-old billionaire Bruce Wayne, who keeps a low profile and only indulges in alcohol and memories of days gone by. But deep inside him, what once made Batman who he was still stirs, until it eventually erupts.

This story does not allow roles to be added.

  • While it would be cool for Mark Hamill to appear in the movie for nostalgia reasons, I don't think he really looks the part. Jack Nicholson is a few years too old and wouldn't be able to look credible in the fighting scene at the funfair. Also, Superman doesn't age, and while the contrast between Batman and Superman in the film shouldn't be too high age-wise because it could impact the dynamic between an elderly Bruce Wayne and Clark Kent as old friends and comrades, I think Nicolas Cage might be a few years over the edge for this role. Just my two cents.
