Following the news earlier today about The Batman finally landing a director, The Hollywood Reporter brings word that The LEGO Batman Movie director Chris McKay will be at the helm for a live-action Nightwing movie!
The LEGO Batman Movie’s Chris McKay to direct Nightwing movie!
The character spent some time in the streets of Gotham City but primarily called the neighboring town of Bludhaven his base of operations. This isn’t the first time that McKay has toyed with the character either, as Dick Grayson appeared in The LEGO Batman Movie. Dick was also previously played by Chris O’Donnell in Batman Forever and Batman & Robin.
