Fan Casting Richard "Dick" Grayson in Tom Mankiewicz's Batman

A teenage aerialist from the circus whose world shatters when the Joker murders his parents mid-performance. Dick is raw, angry, and consumed by a promise of vengeance—he intends to kill the Batman, whom he blames for the tragedy. But when he discovers the truth, he reluctantly joins forces with the Caped Crusader. Robin is wise-cracking, street-smart, and defiant, a kid who has grown up too fast and refuses to be a sidekick. He's Bruce's equal in grief and his opposite in attitude, bringing electric energy and dark humor to the Dynamic Duo. Their partnership is forged in tragedy and fueled by a shared hunger for justice.
