It's Official! Josh Brolin was in the running to play Batman

Actor Josh Brolin confirmed that he was in the running to play Batman with Henry Cavill.

HuffPo talked Josh about the role and the conversations with Zack Snyder. He said:

"We did. I didn't have conversations about it, but Zack, that was part of his idea. It just didn't turn out. It's OK. It is OK. You know, another scenario might have worked better, but I'm happy for Ben."

And in defense of Ben, Josh said:

"I've never seen such a global reaction in my life. I feel for him, truly. I would not want to be him right now. The reaction becomes so personal. It's like, 'Fuck this guy, I wish he was dead.' And you're like, 'What? Dude, seriously? This guy is just working like you are. He's doing the same thing you are. He's trying to make the best choices he can.'"

Wow, I wonder how Josh would've been in the role?

Could Action Star Scott Adkins be the next Batman?

The Twitterverse is chatting about this hot action hero being the new Batman.

Scott Adkins is a talented British action star that has appeared in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, The Expendables 2 and other films. He is also an amazing and accomplished martial artist.

Word on the street is he's a contender to be Bats. I saw this on a couple of blogs, so I checked out his Twitter page. His fans are clearly pushing for this, they even have the hashtag #AdkinsforBatman set to go.

Do I think he could do it? Yeah, I do. He has the chops, the looks (Great Hera) and the body. I'd say, give him a shot. Scott could be a great Batman. The role doesn't need to be filled by a big name, he just needs to be a great Batman.
