Producers Hint Batman May Never Return To Television
In the Gotham series finale, viewers were provided a glimpse of the time when the characters had developed
into their forms most remember either from the comics or other media.
However, according to a story posted at SyFyWire, there is a likelihood that there might never again be a Batman TV series.
That is because, DC Comics believes, Batman rightfully belongs in the movies.
So how's that working out for both viewers and the character?
With both “Superman vs. Batman” and “Justice League” underperforming, Ben Affleck has already, as they like to say, hung up his cowl.
This do not necessarily have to be this way.
There is no reason that there cannot be a cinematic Batman along with a small screen Batman that we are given more of than a glancing shot of as the screen fades to black.
After all, DC gatekeepers apparently have little issue with presenting the media-consuming public with two widely varying interpretations of the Flash.
Time to time, Superman makes an appearance on the Supergirl TV series and now Lex Luthor has been added as an ongoing antagonist.
An ongoing series of movies with installments released every two to three years are not enough to do a mythos as complex as Batman the justice and detail that would be possible with a TV series.
