Keanu Reeves dreams of being Batman: this is how he thinks he could play it

During the premiere of “DC League of Superpets” in Los Angeles, Keanu Reeves expressed in an interview with “Extra” his love for the DC superhero and how grateful he feels to be able to lend his voice to this film animation.

“I love Batman, as a character, in the comics, in the movies. So the opportunity to voice Batman was incredible.”

That excitement about his work on “DC League of Superpets” made him wonder if he’d ever consider donning the dark knight’s iconic black suit for a live-action movie, and his answer indicated that he’s long wanted to play Batman.

“It’s always been a dream.”

However, Keanu was quick to point out that by now the live-action Gotham City vigilante has an owner.

“[Robert] Pattinson is already Batman now and he’s doing great.”

Robert Pattinson made his debut as Batman on the big screen in March 2022 with the Matt Reeves film and apart from Keanu’s praise, his performance also received applause from critics and many fans.

However, the fact that Pattinson is Batman right now doesn’t mean that Keanu has already buried his dream of actually donning the superhero costume and performing it in front of the cameras.

The actor revealed that there might be a chance for him to do so in the future and stressed that one opportunity to cast him would be if they needed a different Batman.

“Maybe when they need a bigger Batman.”

Keanu Reeves is currently 57 years old, so it makes sense that he thinks the most likely opportunity to play Batman is in an older version of the superhero.

On the big screen, Batman has mostly been personified by actors in their thirties, with Ben Affleck being the oldest to bring him to life: at 42, he donned the suit for the first time filming ‘Batman v Superman’. : Dawn of Justice”.

For now, Reeves is enjoying being Batman in the animated version of “DC League of Superpets”

“I had the opportunity to interpret it. I had a small role in this film, a brief appearance but still, I was part of a project with [Dwayne] Johnson and Kevin Hart are great and I got to be Batman. It was fun”.

In the English version of ‘DC League of Super Pets’, the voice cast consists of Keanu Reeves as Batman, Dwayne Johnson as Krypto, Kevin Hart as Ace, John Krasinski as Superman, Diego Luna as Chip, the Green Lantern Squirrel, among others .
