Could we be getting some casting news on the live-action Nightwing movie in development with WB and Chris McKay (The Lego Batman Movie)? An interaction with a fan on Twitter reveals that we might learn when the film is being planned for release, however, it will still be too early to discuss casting.

If Nightwing delivers an update, what does that mean for the other DC Film Universe projects currently in development that are still without a release date? An update on where things stand with Man of Steel 2 would definitely renew some optimism.


News of a live-action Nightwing movie first surfaced in February 2017. Bill Dubuque (The Accountant, A Family Man) is writing the script. Little is known about the project other than the fact that McKay wants to ground it in realism and use as little CGI as possible. 

The project is also separate from the live-action Titans series currently in production for DC Entertainment's soon-to-launch streaming platform. Actor Brenton Thwaites was cast to portray Dick Grayson in that particular project.
