Why Glen Powell Would Be Perfect for Batman of The DCU?
Powell had become the fan-favorite for two DCU confirmed characters before his most recent disclosure on heroic jobs. Among fans, the actor was among the top picks for leading DC's Green Lantern series, Lanterns, either as the Hal Jordan version of Green Lantern or as the title character in Booster Gold. Powell's wish to exclusively portray Batman should he be hired as a superhero, though, makes those other excellent decisions quite improbable.
Still, Powell would really make for an amazing Batman for the new DC Universe. The actor, thirty-five, falls inside the required age range for the DCU post. Bruce Wayne will discover he has a son, Damian, in the forthcoming Batman reboot The Brave and the Bold. Damian encountered Bruce in the comics at 10 years old. Powell would be a younger Batman than Ben Affleck in the DCEU, yet realistically he could play the father to Damian and the Bat-Family leader.
Glen Powell Lists The One DC Superhero He Would Want To Play
Glen Powell has divulged the hero he would be willing to play in the DC Universe. For various DC and Marvel heroes, Powell has grown to be a famous fancast; nevertheless, it was recently discovered that Powell has no interest in joining the MCU. Now it gets enlarged to DC heroes as well, Powell would make an exception for a hero having a confirmed DCU movie.
Glen Powell remarked to GQ UK that Batman is the only superhero he would like to play. GQ UK said "Powell has no interest in playing a superhero, but flirts with the idea of Bruce Wayne." Then the actor said he always loved Batman, and Powell, playing a Wall Street analyst in The Dark Knight Rises, was even hit by Tom Hardy's Bane. Powell might have his opportunity to play a "wild take on Batman" in the DCU with The Brave and the Bold Batman revamp on route. See the entire quotation below:
Powell not only fits the Right Age for the Role but also possesses the looks and abilities to bring Batman to life in the DCU.
Powell would look great for Bruce Wayne with black hair. The actor's earlier performances also reveal how intriguing a choice the DCU's Batman would have from him. With his turn in Devoration demonstrating how Glen Powell would perform as the focused and determined vigilante that is Batman, Powell's performance in Top Gun: Maverick confirmed that he would shine as the playboy persona of the rich Bruce Wayne.
Reboots the Dark Knight after Ben Affleck's performance on the character, The Brave and the Bold is the first Batman film James Gunn and Peter Safran has produced. It presents Bruce Wayne's son, Robin Damian Wayne, and finds influence in Grant Morrison's work on the comic book character.

Not Much New Left: Miyazaki Has a Dashing Indictment of Modern Anime
Hayao Miyazaki, the critically praised director of The Boy and the Heron, is well-known for his curmudgeonly attitude toward the anime business; this is more clear-cut than it has been following a fresh quotation capturing the filmmaker's opinions on the contemporary anime scene. While most filmmakers would consider receiving a big prize like the Palace d'Or as a sign of hope and optimism, Miyazaki's son claims that the beloved director is full of questions over the direction of Ghibli and animation overall.
At the Cannes Film Festival this year, Studio Ghibli received an honorary Palme d'Or; Miyazaki's son Goro traveled to France to accept the award. Younger Miyazaki spoke to French source 20 Minutes about his father's opinions on Ghibli and the contemporary animation business at the ceremony.
