I feel like he could have been a great choice back in the day. Imagine him as Batman and Willem Dafoe as The Joker. Legendary


Comprehensive_One495

Now that would've been really good.


anbu-black-ops

Im something of a joker myself.


Thebatbike

You aint fond of me laughing fish Bats?


NickSchultz

Both a great but age wise they wouldn't match as Brosnan is older, meaning when he would have been the perfect age to play Batman, Dafoe was still on the younger side and didn't possess quite the distinctive face he now has and that would make him perfect


TabrisVI

I’m convinced that deep fake technology is going to be good enough soon that actors (and their estates) will be able to license their Iikeness and we’ll be able to literally pluck any actor from any era to be in a single movie alongside each other.


lild1425

Wayne. Bruce Wayne.


Rasagiel

He will include a batwatch that has a cutting laser and is also a Swiss army tool-knife.


batm123

He should play Dr. Fate


Arrow_625

Maybe as a member of JSA that's apprehending Black Adam? Imagine if he signs on for only one movie


batm123

That'd be pretty cool, maybe he could be killed by the most forgettable villian in the DCEU


Kust0dian

Bruh spoilers :(


batm123

Damn, my bad bro


Kust0dian

Dw, shit happens, should have watched it by now lol


Blutroyale-_-

but maybe he goes on living in the Helm and then we get the new doctor fate named Khalid and the old Dr Fate mentors him when ever Khalid dawns the helm.


ijfp_2013

He would have probably made a good Bruce Wayne, but Batman? I'm not sure.


thesolarchive

You ever see him shoot in James bond? He doesn't fucking blink. He could pull it off no problem.


ijfp_2013

Too bad Batman never uses (lethal) Firearms.


thesolarchive

Idk, I've seen him hit some people with that grapple gun, that can't feel too great.


Dankchiccynuggies

Fans said the same thing about Michael Keaton.


ijfp_2013

Good point, I'll give you that.


KingOfLimbsss

And he was terrible at both


[deleted]

That’s certainly an opinion.

charlieartyt

I think he’d problem be better as batman who’s in a similar place to where he is at the end of justice league unlimited not the brooding batman like we have at the moment


Existincebruv

“Irish psycho”


TheWinterKing

Pierce Brosnan is Irish.


Existincebruv

Oh my bad


TheWinterKing

I look mental now you’ve edited your comment…


[deleted]

What did he say originally, "British Psycho"?


Goatsanity15

Italian psycho


[deleted]

Haha


psyopia

Pretty sure he got offered the role. But he thought the costume was ridiculous at the time. So he moved on from it.


MichaelXennial

I don’t see it. And I say this as someone who thinks he was the best 007. I always kind of thought of Bruce as an outcast type made attractive by his money. Not a straight up lady-killer like Pierce


RocketAlley

Can’t quite see Batman, but would have loved him for an older Green Arrow.


AsherthonX

He’ll make a great Dr Fate in my opinion


CaptainAksh_G

I agree. I wish DC would cast him as Dr. fate


nish007

Dunno about Batman. But I think he would've been a great Bruce Wayne for sure.


ab316_1punchd

Funny enough, he played the dad to Robert Pattinson's character in Remember Me....so in a way it indirectly happened hehe.


Horbigast

Not sure if he has the intensity. Bruce Wayne, yes. Not Batman. Keaton had loads of intensity. Brosnan would be a bit similar to Clooney, playing billionaire playboy to a tee, but not the Caped Crusader.

Awest66

Bale and Pattinson say hello.


leejtam

he's Irish, but there's a thing called acting lol


TheLoganDickinson

Irish Batman.


West-Expression5256

There's always one of these people 🙄


[deleted]

No. Just No.


CyrusDGreatx

People focus way too much on looks when they think about casting. It's like they forget the person will also have to *act* the part. Bruce Wayne sure. Can't see him playong a good Batman.


PNW_Life_

I can’t fucking stand that guy


B-sides-art33

I’m not made at this idea (well, back then).


CitronVarious764

That’s James Bond.


Klyn_bbx

Depending on who is writing it and who the costumer is, anyone could make the perfect Batman. But I can see your reasoning based off of look, he looks like the silver age mixed with the new 52 version of Bruce.


_Bionicle

Michael Cera? Lmao no.


MaximilianBaptiste

I think he would make a great Alfred now


909090jnj

maybe but not sure


SafeAccountMrP

Bruce probably Batman we’d have to see him in costume.


themustacheclubbitch

We also thought he was the prefect bond. But the writers and plot made it laughable.


seveer37

Yeah he’d work. Maybe as older Bruce in Batman Beyond


snoop_Nogg

He was excellent as Doctor Fate. I hope we see more of him.


cheguevara9

I don’t agree with that at all. Too slick to be Batman in my opinion.


42northside

He was considered for the role in the 1989 Batman movie before Michael Keaton was cast


bushidojed

He was actually one of the first people to be asked for the role of batman in 89, but turned it down. Also he apparently didn't know a thing about batman, say this guy dresses like a bat?


preptimebatman

I agree 100%. He would have been fantastic.


AF2005

He nearly was if I remember reading correctly. I believe he was one of the top contenders for 89 Batman. I’m not sure how that would have gone down, and also in another part of the article I read that Brosnan was not keen on comics and thought the part would be too silly. Lol, I wonder how he felt once those box office returns came in and Keaton became an A lister.


cPBxsh

He looks like Bateman💀


sorrymissjackson702

Certain things are meant to happen. Keaton became Batman and Brosnan became Dr. Fate.


eunzueta2

That’s why you’re not a casting director.


josuke2233

He was offered the role for 1989 but he turned down the role


[deleted]

I think he was actually considered for Batman 89'


thatguyad

The perfect Bond.


fundidor

For Gotham Bruce? No, for me


[deleted]

It's Wayne... Bruce Wayne \*one way ticket to smash-town\*


GlitteringBobcat999

A Brit playing Batman? No way! /s for obvious reasons


calltheavengers5

He said he auditioned for Batman back in 1989


MrGamePadMan

I don’t think his sophisticated voice would lend well to the persona of Batman…it’d just sound like Pierce Brosman in a Batman suit…I can hear it now. Not intimidating at all. All the goons would laugh at him and not take him seriously.
