Apparently it’s been confirmed. Your new Batman (for the upcoming Justice League movie) is none other than the one and only Armie Hammer! No, not Arm and Hammer… Armie Hammer. Yes, the legendary actor who has appeared in 1 episode of Desperate Housewives, 1 episode of Veronica Mars and 1 unforgettable episode of Arrested Development. And let’s not forget the small roll he had in Flicka too.
Yup, your Batman is 21 years old with a face that could pass for a 14 year old. This is your new Dark Knight. He’s a physically big dude, coming in at about 6’5 so he’s certainly got the build I guess.
Look, don’t take my sarcasm as a knock on Hammer. For all I know he could be a great actor (or not). But this just feeds even more to the jokes about “Teen Titans”. Is this REALLY the guy you want as the Batman?!?! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again… This movie, Justice League… is DOOMED.
