‘Batman Begins’ Writer Says Christopher Nolan Told Him ‘Not to Work on the Affleck Batman’ Because ‘It’s Confusing. We Did One and Just Stick With That’
'Batman Begins' writer David S. Goyer says Christopher Nolan told him not to work on "Batman v Superman" and write Ben Affleck's Batman.
“No disrespect to the actors who played Bruce Wayne prior to this, and as moviegoers we were always twiddling our thumbs waiting for the character to get into costume and for the movie to begin. “We knew fairly early on that we needed to have the audience fall in love with Bruce Wayne,” Goyer said. To help ease the studio’s concerns over hiding Batman for a large chunk of “Batman Begins,” Goyer put together a presentation for executives in which he took four other superhero movies, including Richard Donner’s “Superman,” and “we clocked the minute into the film the character had put on the costume… We weren’t that much farther than them!”
