Christian Bale has already revealed his first condition for returning in “The Dark Knight 4”.

Christian Bale has one condition under which he must return The Dark Knight 4and he's not the only person associated with the Batman franchise to comment on a possible return. Bale was cast as Bruce Wayne in Christopher Nolan's film The Beginning of Batmanbeating out other candidates such as Cillian Murphy, who would play Scarecrow in Nolan's The Dark Knight Trilogy, and Jake Gyllenhaal, who in the eyes of fans is one of the more popular candidates for the role of the new Batman from James Gunn's DC Universe. Bale delivered the goods, easily becoming one of the best live-action Batman actors.

Bale was helped by some amazing villains and supporting characters. The most important of them was Heath Ledger's Joker, in which the actor gave one of the most iconic performances in the history of cinema as the Clown Prince of Crime, starring Ledger The Dark Knight a role leading to a posthumous Oscar for Best Supporting Actor for the star. With so much talent in the franchise and in the Nolan Batman films, being loved by fans and appreciated by critics, there was always a desire The Dark Knight 4 happen. The film recently received a promising update and Bale has one condition if he is to return.

The Dark Knight 4 was never planned

It was always planned to be a trilogy

Even though it was a huge success, the ex never plans to make a fourth movie The Dark Knight trilogy. The Beginning of Batman it was released only 8 years later Batman and Robin effectively put an end to Batman adaptations for a while. Even though Nolan wanted to make a trilogy, there was a one-film-at-a-time approach to the film, especially since there was the possibility that The Beginning of Batman wouldn't do well because of what came before.

The Beginning of Batman did well at the box office, but it helped restore the Batman film's reputation with the general public, leading to a huge success The Dark Knight just three years later. It was the first superhero movie to gross $1 billion and set the stage for an epic grand finale. Four years later The Dark Knight Rises was released and concluded one of the greatest superhero trilogies of all time.

In the age of cinematic universes, stories and characters continue long after the series ends, but trilogies have always been a popular way to build a specific series. I have a feeling Nolan didn't want this for his Batman. Instead, he wanted to create a story with a beginning, middle and endwhich he handled brilliantly The Dark Knight trilogy. The franchise will likely be better off for it, but there are those who would be willing to revisit the world if all was well.

Christian Bale would only come back for The Dark Knight 4v1, provided

The Batman actor is right

Bale last played Batman in 2012 The Dark Knight Rises. The film was the perfect ending to his version of Bruce Wayne, who saved Gotham City but managed to escape the cycle of violence in his life by going to live with Selina Kyle (Anne Hathaway), aka Catwoman, and abandoning his Batman's life. . With such a definitive conclusion to the Dark Knight trilogy, it would be difficult to revive the franchise; However, Bale revealed that he would be willing to don the Batman suit again on one condition.

For The Dark Knight 4Bale would return as Batman if Christopher Nolan was involved. Nolan, who recently won his first Oscar for Best Director Oppenheimer – in which he appeared The Dark Knight trilogy alum Cillian Murphy — was the creative force behind Bale's Batman. In this regard, the actor said On-screen tirade“If Chris Nolan ever said to himself, “You know what, I have another story to tell.” And if he wanted to tell this story with me, I would agree” The actor also revealed this he and Nolan only ever planned on three films.

The condition for Bale's return as Batman, assuming that Nolan also has to return, is understandable. After all, it was their collective effort – and everyone else's The Dark Knight cast and crew of the trilogy – this has made the Batman films some of the best not only for the character, but also for DC films and superhero films as a whole. At age 50, Bale may still have had a good Batman role or two under his belt, with a recent role as the actor in a Marvel Studios film Thor: Love and Thunder shows that he's still open to superhero movies.

What Christopher Nolan and the other creators of the Dark Knight trilogy have said about the return

The Dark Knight 4 recently received a promising update

Bale is not the only one involved in this case The Dark Knight trilogy, for which we talked about a possible return The Dark Knight 4. Although I wasn't directly asked about the controls The Dark Knight 4Nolan has made his stance on directing new superhero films clear. I'm talking to HugoDecryptNolan was asked if he would like to make another superhero film after the Batman trilogy the director firmly stated:NO“ Based on Nolan's firm stance on this issue and one of Bale's conditions for Batman's return, The Dark Knight 4 what's going on is complicated.

However, there is hope at the end of the tunnel for fans The Dark Knight trilogy. Recently, Jonathan Nolan stated that his dream would be to return to the Batman series. Jonathan, brother of Christopher Nolan, worked as a screenwriter on all three films in the Dark Knight trilogy. Jonathan, whose work includes fan-favorite projects such as television series Western World AND Fallhe could convince his brother to come back for another Caped Crusader expedition. Perhaps, even if Christopher Nolan didn't return, he could pass the Batman torch to Jonathan and that could bring Bale on board.

What could Dark Knight 4 be about?

The Batman movie consists of two exciting stories

The Dark Knight Rises'end, arrange possible stories for the fourth film. At the end of the film, Bruce gave up his role as Batman and went to Italy to live with Selina. The Dark Knight 4 I saw him return to Gotham. But this time, Bruce wouldn't be Batman. DC had been trying to launch a live-action adaptation of Batman Beyond for some time, and Michael Keaton's version of Batman almost succeeded. Ton The Dark Knight 4 could be a full adaptation of Batman Beyond with Bale's older Bruce Wayne mentoring the young Terry McGinnis.

Another possible storyline that could bring back the franchise could happen even if Bale doesn't return as Bruce Wayne and/or Batman. The Dark Knight 4 he could instead focus on the most likely new holder of the mantle after the events of The Dark Knight Rises. At the end of the movie it was revealed Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character's full name was Robin John Blake. This clear nod to DC's Robin and the fact that Blake found the Batcave point to him being Bruce's natural successor as Batman and possible leader The Dark Knight 4.

Will The Dark Knight 4 ever be made?

There is demand for a DC movie

Based on Nolan's lack of desire to direct another superhero film and that Bale will only return as Batman if the director agrees, The Dark Knight 4 is unlikely. Jonathan Nolan's new commentary and the fact that the Batman universe could continue with a new Dark Knight make a new film possible even if Bale and Nolan do not return. But at this point, it would be hard to ask fans to care The Dark Knight 4 if the main actor and director who made the DC series so iconic were no longer there.

Let's add to this, there are too many Batman actors already to add another one to the table. Robert Pattinson's 'Bruce Wayne' will continue with a standalone film Batman universe directed by Matt Reeves. At the same time, a new actor will appear in James Gunn's DC Universe as Bruce Wayne. Batman from the DCU will debut in Brave and Brave movie. With two live-action movie franchises for Batman, The Dark Knight 4the chances of something happening are minimal.
