Jonathan Bailey the out actor best known for his roles in Bridgerton, Fellow Travelers, Jurassic World: Rebirth, and the Wicked movies is reportedly being considered to play Batman, a.k.a. Bruce Wayne, in James Gunns newly-established DCU franchise at Warner Bros. Discovery.If true, the current DC Comics film franchise would include David Corenswet (as Superman) and Bailey (as Batman) existing in the same DCU continuity. No one would run away from this Caped Crusader, or that Man of Steel, thats for sure.The Batley rumors had been around for some time in superhero-focused news outlets like Screen Rant and ComicBookMovie, as well as fan-pages like @EverythingDCU_. Generally, they point to a liked X post (formerly tweet) liked by Gunn that reads:I think itd be cool if James [Gunn] found some spot for Jonathan Bailey in the DCU. Dont really know which character but he seems like a massive star in the making. Im actually surprised hes not a more popular fan-cast for Batman.Even though this speculation isnt entirely new, a new wave of reactions to the rumors has come back to the surface. (@) So you mean Jonathan Bailey is the top choice for Bruce Wayne? @godsandmortaIs wrote on X.
