Jake Gyllenhaal has revealed that he would love to play Batman if he were given the opportunity.As James Gunn‘s DC Universe begins to shape up, more roles in the superhero world are being cast, including Superman, Supergirl and Lex Luthor.
However, one hero that has yet to be cast is Batman/Bruce Wayne.A perennial contender to play Batman whenever the role opens up, Jake Gyllenhaal was recently asked about potentially starring in Gunn’s DC Universe as the Caped Crusader.
Gyllenhaal said to Screen Rant: “Oh, man. That’s a classic [role]. It’s an honour. Speaking of playing roles that other incredible actors have played in the past…”Gyllenhaal said further: “When I think about it, I’m going to play Iago in Othello with Denzel Washington, and I think about like the history of actors that have played that role throughout time, and I’m intimidated by that.
So that’s the first level. That’s what I’m working on right now. But of course. It would be an honour always. Those types of things and those roles are classics.”Gyllenhaal has been linked with Bruce Wayne/Batman since the early 2000s, when it was announced that Christopher Nolan would be adapting Batman for the silver screen, which was later dubbed the Dark Knight Trilogy.
