IT And JOHN WICK CHAPTER 4 Star Bill Skarsgård Reportedly Being Eyed For DCU Role

We don't have much to go on here, but it seems Bill Skarsgård (It, John Wick Chapter 4) might be in contention for a role in an upcoming DCU project...

Bill Skarsgård is reportedly being eyed for an upcoming DCU role.

The Flash director Andy Muschietti is rumored to be locked-in to helm Batman: The Brave and The Bold, which led to a Twitter user fan-casting Skarsgård - who played Pennywise in Muschietti's It movies - as Bruce Wayne.

Jeff Sneider then weighed in by claiming that the John Wick Chapter 4 actor is already up for "a different DC movie."

There are currently only five films in the first chapter of the new DCU's "Gods and Monsters" slate, so if not The Brave and the Bold, we can assume Skarsgård is up for either Superman: Legacy, The Authority, Swamp Thing, or Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.

With Legacy the only project currently in the first phase of production, we'd say that's a decent bet. Jimmy Olsen, perhaps?

That's pure speculation, of course, but we may find out more during this Thursday's edition of The Hot Mic, so be sure to tune in. In the meantime, let us know which DC character you feel Skarsgard would be best suited to.

He’s too old for Jimmy Olsen especially if we have a Superman in his 20s.

@dragon316, the best you've done with your life is type: "tom holland is in his twenty’s playing teenage Spider-Man in highschool"? Seriously? You said "in his 20's" as if he is turning 30 tomorrow. The guy was a teenager when he was cast as Spider-Man. Stop acting like your stupid-ass comparison is even remotely the same. No one is buying an older-looking Jimmy Olsen as Clark Kent's friend, first and foremost the producers of this project.

Thinking is not illegal yet. Do it.

@dragon316 - Holland can pull off younger. Not all actors can.

@dracula - I’m telling you right now, I thought the exact same. I weirdly can see him pull it off.

@dracula - He's now my joint fave along with Austin Butler. I'm hoping Jeff Sneider heard wrong and he actually is Batman.

I’m sure any actor with a damn is being eyed for a DCU role according to these scoopers.

That being said, bro should be:

@GhostDog - if they could do a question film they would've done it already. I heard there were rights issues.

John Wick: Chapter 4 was straight up bonkers! And he was a very enjoyably despisable antagonist.

I feel like he's typecast as a villain so maybe Scarecrow?

Great replacement for Ezra! Good thinking Gunn and Safran. Glad to have our new Flash

@JFerguson - I could see him as Barry Allen. If we see him with a goatee, he’s Oliver.

@Mrtoke, @JFerguson, a 6'4, creepy-lookin' replacement for Barry Allen. Seriously?

His suits in John Wick 4 and the way he wore them was just incredible.

That red velvet coat he wears when Donny Yen’s character first meets him in the palace was just stunning. Reminds me just how broke I am LMAO

You're all wrong. He's playing Codpiece.



Finally making his BIG screen debut.

@EgoEgor - His small screen debut was such a disappointment.
