Scott Adkins BATMAN Audition Tape Surfaces Online Featuring Scenes From THE DARK KNIGHT RISES

Ben Affleck is officially done with the role of Batman and WB is reportedly leaving no stone unturned in their quest to find a replacement. Fans have been pointing in Scott Adkins' direction for years...

Matt Reeves' The Batman is reportedly looking for a very specific set of criteria when it comes to the actor that will don the cape and cowl following Ben Affleck's departure. WB is reported to be looking for a "household-name" in his 30s to portray the Caped Crusader for a new trilogy.

Sadly, that likely means Scott Adkins (42), who's had small but noticeable roles in Zero Dark Thirty, Doctor Strange and X-Men: Origins: Wolverine, do
esn't exactly fit the bill.  Nevertheless, it seems that hasn't deterred the veteran actor and stuntman from filming an audition tape.

There's probably little doubt that Adkins has the athleticism to play Batman; which is why in the video below, he uses an emotional scene from Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises to show off what type of Bruce Wayne he'd make.

I’m on team just hire a good actor who fits the role but I do like the idea of Robert Pattison. This guy probably not.

@TheUnworthyThor - You're goddamn right. If Reeves can commit to doing his own stunts, Pattinson could learn how to throw down. Beef him up and he's great. An amazing actor - I'm glad to see others on board with the idea, rather than being stuck on Twilight; looking over his portfolio, he certainly has.

This just makes me appreciate Bale and Cain's performances more.

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - Agreed! They need a great actor to flesh out the multi dimensional psychology of Bruce Wayne/Batman!

Really come on board with Robert Pattison as Bruce/Batman. Some of the fan artwork really sealed the deal.

Also either Skarsagard brother I would stump for to be a younger Bruce Wayne.
