Jeffrey Dean Morgan Hints at Bigger Plans for Flashpoint Batman (But Will We Ever See It?)
- Jeffrey Dean Morgan revealed he was in talks to play Flashpoint Batman in Zack Snyder's DCEU before the franchise rebooted.
- Snyder developed the DCEU from 2013 to 2017 and planned to explore the Flashpoint story, but studio changes ended his vision.
- The Flashpoint movie was planned to showcase heroes from alternate realities, including Jeffrey Dean Morgan’s version of Batman, the Batman portrayed by Ben Affleck, Ezra Miller’s portrayal of the Flash, and Henry Cavill as Superman.
- Morgan mentioned that Zack had plans to continue making movies, and at one point, the Flashpoint Batman storyline was intended to feature these characters in a much larger capacity.
- After Warner Bros. Rebooted the DC Universe under James Gunn and Peter Safran, plans for Morgan's Flashpoint Batman ended, making it unlikely the story will be adapted soon.
