RESULTS: Would You Like To See Joseph Gordon Levitt As BATMAN In JUSTICE LEAGUE?
This rumor definitely seemed to light a fire under our CBMers, but the final result was probably a bit closer than you might have thought. Over 4,000 of you voted, so click to find out if JGL is the man you guys want to see as the next Dark Knight..
He isn't - but considering the negative reaction to this rumor initially, not by too large a margin. With 1,947 Votes, 46.56% of you definitely don't want John 'Robin' Blake suiting up as The Caped Crusader in the Justice League movie. I thought the 'maybe' option would have been next, but with 1,246 Votes, 29.79% of you would be perfectly happy to see it happen. And finally 23.65% (989 votes) of you would be okay with it, as long as good ol Bruce Wayne also made an appearance.
Levitt's reps have since denied that the actor was ever in talks for the role, but as we should all know by now, that's what reps do! Still, not many people got behind the rumor in the first place so it's pretty much seen as dead in the water by most. But considering the source, I'm going to wait for something more concrete before completely dismissing this one.
See JGL earn his cowl in The Dark Knight Rises on Blu-ray and DVD December 4th.
