It’s not about watching the movies, but rather about respecting the work that goes into making them.
The Batman Returns alum Michael Keaton is gearing up to reprise his role as Bruce Wayne in the upcoming DC film, The Flash. This film will be Keaton’s first time wearing the Batsuit since his reign as the Caped Crusader.
When asked by Variety why he decided to join the DCU, Keaton simply said that it “seemed like fun” to be part of the superhero franchise again.
“I was curious what it would be like after this many years. Not so much me doing it—obviously, some of that—but I was just curious about it, weirdly, socially,” Keaton said.
Keaton later revealed in the interview that he has never finished watching a Marvel or DC film, even though he has prominent roles in both cinematic universes.
“I know people don’t believe this, that I’ve never seen an entire version of any of those movies—any Marvel movie, any other. And I don’t say that I don’t watch that because I’m highbrow—trust me, it’s not that,” Keaton said.
