Nightwing and Batman imagery

As fans of the comic record book character understand , Nightwing is an proficient aerialist and someone who ’s comfortable with various forms of soldierlike arts , so the thespian who inevitably portray him in alive - action will also demand to be able to parade the same horizontal surface of skill that the superhero has in the funnies - or at least be close enough for it to be convincing . And while the casting outgrowth may not start for quite some meter , McKay is felicitous enough with the handwriting to the point that he think thatNightwingcould enter pre - production next year .

Yes I consider it can provided the script is softheaded great — Chris McKay ( @buddboetticher)November 5 , 2017

Although much of the project remain a mystery at this stage , we know that theNightwingmoviewill feature nods to Dick Grayson ’s past , while also possibly connecting to Batman ’s ( Ben Affleck ) story in Matt Reeves’The Batman . But it sounds like it will be a while before any concrete entropy is revealed .
