Could GAME OF THRONES Actor Kit Harington Be A Contender To Play THE BATMAN For Matt Reeves?
Could we actually see Jon Snow suit-up as The Dark Knight in Matt Reeves' The Batman? Well, it looks like Warner Bros. was at least considering the idea of casting Kit Harington in the role at one point...
It looks like Kit Harington, a.k.a. Jon Snow on HBO's Game of Thrones, might have been - and may still be - on Warner Bros.' radar to play Bruce Wayne in Matt Reeves' upcoming Batman movie.
Revenge of the Fans has discovered that the studio requested digital mock-ups of the 31-year-old actor back in June to get an idea of how he'd look in the iconic cape 'n cowl.
Obviously this doesn't mean that he's still in contention for the role (it doesn't necessarily mean that he ever was, to be honest), but it does give us some idea of the type of actor WB and Reeves are looking to cast as The Dark Knight.
At 5’8, Kit is around the same height and build as Jake Gyllenhaal and Jack Huston, who have also been rumored as possibilities to take over from Ben Affleck in the past.
Assuming Harington is still in the running to play The Batman, how would you guys feel if he landed the part? Drop us a comment in the usual place.
