Batman is a fictional character that appears in American comic books published by the American comics company DC Comics. The character was created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane and debuted in the 27th issue of Detective Comics on March 30, 1939. This movie starred Christian Bale and Val Kilmer as the titular vigilante. The first film in the Batman series was released in 1989 and has spawned numerous spin-offs, including The Dark Knight trilogy and a new animated Batman series.
Christian Bale
Despite his critical health, Christian Bale is open to returning to his long-running role as Batman. While the actor recently played the villain Gorr in “Thor: Ragnarok,” he has also appeared as the Joker in the upcoming MCU movie Thor: Love and Thunder. Christian Bale has recently revealed to Screen Rant what it would take to play Batman again. If you haven’t seen his performance in the “Thor” films, then you’ve got to see Thor: Love and Thunder.
Christopher Nolan has prioritized the role of Batman. He met with dozens of candidates before settling on Christian Bale. The actor’s casting as Batman has paid off big time: all three Dark Knight films have done exceptionally well at the box office and garnered near-universal acclaim. However, it is unclear whether a sequel is in the works. This decision will have to be made by Christopher Nolan.
Val Kilmer
In this new comic, Val Kilmer as Batman has two foes to face: the schizophrenic Harvey Dent (played by Michael Keaton), a former District Attorney who is horribly scarred by his crimes, and the Riddler, a disgruntled ex-Wayne Enterprises inventor who seeks revenge on the Waynes. The Riddler uses his brain-sucking weapon to strike across Gotham City. In between, Batman is struggling with the tortured memories of his parents’ murder and a new romance with psychologist Chase Meridian.
The first time that Kilmer met the director of the Adam West version of Batman was when he was in the 2nd grade. Although he was not yet a teenager, Kilmer had always dreamed of playing the role. As a child, Kilmer visited the Adam West Batman set while on vacation in Africa. He was unaware of the director, Joel Schumacher, at the time. Though the casting process was somewhat disappointing for Kilmer, he decided to accept the role anyway.
Jason O’Mara
Actor Jason O’Mara (born July 16, 1979) is an Irish native who has had several roles on American television. He has appeared in American dramas including Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Life on Mars, and Terra Nova. He is the recipient of an Irish Film and Television Award for Best Supporting Actor. He is currently starring as Batman on the NBC series “Batman Begins.”
Before his recurring role as Batman on the animated series, O’Mara was a voice actor on the series Agents of Shield. He reprised the role in 2015’s Justice League: Throne of Atlantis and starred in Justice League: War. His Batman appearances were followed by guest appearances in several TV shows. He was cast as a lead in Steven Spielberg’s time-traveling sci-fi adventure, Terra Nova. This film did not receive a large audience, but O’Mara’s talent earned him another shot at stardom.
As a voice actor for Batman, Jason O’Mara had been a Batman comic book reader for several years before he was cast as the iconic character. While he avoided hitting the microphone, his finger did end up accidentally striking the lectern. The actor was lucky enough to avoid the injury, but the film is currently being released on Blu-ray and DVD. Aside from Batman, Jason O’Mara is also an actor who plays the role of Joker.
Jason Conroy
The actor is a frequent contributor to the DC animated universe, voicing the character in many of the comics and games since 2009. His role as Batman has been the subject of numerous cartoons and games, including Arkham Asylum in 2009 and Arkham City in 2011. He did not participate in the development of Arkham Origins, which was made by another team. However, Conroy is not in the PR industry, so he may have knowledge of the current state of the Arkham franchise.
Although many actors have voiced the character, none of them have done so as effectively as Conroy. Among them, Kevin Conroy, who started voice acting in 1992’s Batman: The Animated Series, is the most prolific. He has portrayed the character on more than a dozen films and tv shows. He has also voiced the character in multiple video games and has continued to voice the role throughout his career.
