Beyond casting the Nightwing movie, Chris McKay has continuously doubled down on his vocal desire to break the mold and legitimately wow audiences with this project.
When we consider just how technically involved this movie is going to be, it makes sense that everyone involved wants to make sure that they pick the right actor for the titular role.
In addition to the discussion of the actor to potentially play Dick Grayson, McKay even recently admitted to CinemaBlend (during the press junket for The LEGO Ninjago Movie) that he has every intention of making Nightwing into an action film that’s so technically impressive that it will actually spur the Academy Awards to finally make a category for “Best Stunt,” which is an accolade that many members of the film industry have wanted to see for years.
