‘Avengers: Endgame’ Co-Director Joe Russo Would Direct A Batman Film

Avengers: Endgame co-director Joe Russo revealed he would choose to direct a Batman film during a Q&A hosted by ComicBook.com’s Brandon Davis.

Avengers: Endgame successfully concluded the first decade of MCU stories and, for the time being at least, marked the final Marvel Studios’ film from directors Anthony and Joe Russo. However, when asked which DC hero he would be willing to tackle in a feature film, Joe Russo stated he would have to choose Batman and recounted his childhood love for the character:

“As far as what I collected as a kid, I collected Batman. [That] was one of the DC characters I collected. So it would have to be Batman.”

For now, Matt Reeves’ is taking over the Caped Crusader’s big screen adventures with a new film tentatively titled The Batman. Plot details for The Batman are currently under wraps, though the film will center around a younger Bruce Wayne and includes multiple villains. Matt Reeves also confirmed that it will not be directly based on Frank Miller’s Year One comic and will use of the Dark Knight’s detective skills to a greater extent than previous DC Films.

The grave course of events set in motion by Thanos that wiped out half the universe and fractured the Avengers ranks compels the remaining Avengers to take one final stand in Marvel Studios’ grand conclusion to twenty-two films, “Avengers: Endgame.”
