The Flash director Andy Muschietti has sent fans into a frenzy with a recent tease about his potential involvement in the highly anticipated Batman-centric DC Universe movie, The Brave and the Bold. During a conversation with Narcity Canada’s Senior global editor, Josh K. Elliott, on Twitter, Muschietti dropped some intriguing hints about his potential role in the project.
Elliott asked Muschietti about the kind of spin he would like to put on Batman if he were to take the character in a “Brave and Bold direction.” It is worth noting that Muschietti has inherited the legacy of two renowned Batman directors, Tim Burton and Zack Snyder. In response to Elliott’s question, Muschietti gave a cryptic answer, saying, “Oh, that’s… I don’t think I can talk to that… yet.” While this doesn’t confirm his involvement, it certainly fuels speculation and excitement among fans.
