Saw this very interesting. Wonder what they will do. Just gets me more exited and curious about this Batman movie.
HBO max is really just throwing around these spinoffs, not complaining just interesting
They are really banking on The Batman being a hit arenāt they?
We are going to get a lot of spin-off with it if it is.
No kidding! Iāve lost track of just how many spin-offs have been announced/rumored. Red Hood, Peacemaker, Black Canary, this, and Iām sure there are more (anyone remember the Hawk and Dove rumored one back when Titans was first announced? 'Cause I sure do!)
At this point Iām just taking things with a grain of saltā¦ I donāt want my emotions to get played with
So thatāll be the 2nd The Batman spin-off on HBO Max. The other one being Gotham PD. I wonder how hard theyāre going to be leaning into each universe (DCEU vs. The Batman vs. Titans vs. Arrowverse, etc.)
Why? Just why? Bring back Swamp Thing, thatās the show that should be there!
I wouldāve been down for a Catwoman spin off more tbh.
Some people want this show. Colin Ferrel is a phenomenal actor and the Penguin is an interesting character. Is he the ONLY interesting character? No, but he is ONE. Itās okay if youād rather have a different show be made, but I think itās a little weird to bring up show that has nothing to do with this thread because youāre not getting what you want.
Iām interested, if itās was done.
Eh.
If it happens, Iāll give the show a chance.
For me, a more interesting villain-starring series would be Clayface.
Heās framed, escapes from Arkham to find who framed him and why, and is always under a new identity each week to avoid Batman, the DMA, A.R.G.U.S, Checkmate, the D.E.O. and the rest while seeking to clear his name in the process.
Itās essentially The Fugitive, but with a Batman villain as the lead.
A Batman villain whoās much more deserving of a new live-action gig than one whose already had his share of them (The Penguin), Iād like to add.
Iāll give it a try especially if āThe Batmanā is really good kinda like how once seeing The Suicide Squad and Peacemaker in that made me more interested in the spin-off.
Penguinās always been a great character in live action between Danny DeVito and Robin Lord Taylor from what Iāve seen so hopefully Colin Farrellās is just as intriguing.
Side-note: As others mentioned this show existing has no correlation to other shows not existing or continuing. And who knowsā¦ this show could surprise usā¦ wouldnāt be the first time a DC (or Marvel) project did that for me when I asked ābut why this?ā
Just wait until HBO comes out with a series titledā¦āThe Spin-off from the Spin-offā
How do we know that they arenāt developing one? We already know of two and Catwoman would be logical.
I mean nothing has been confirmed besides except for Gotham PD and Penguin so at least to the public, we donāt know.
Canāt wait for more expansions of this universe, so unbelievably hyped for the Batman! Will never forget being at the first DC FanDome, freaking out over seeing our first trailer.
As of this moment, donāt care. Villain centric stories donāt intrigue me. The Penguin by himself doesnāt intrigue me. That can change after watching The Batman, but at this time, my reaction is āok dokeyā.
Iām very intrigued to see where they go with this Story. Especially if they continue to use Farrell for the role.
