Last month, Jonathan Nolan and his wife and producing partner, Lisa Joy, successfully launched Fallout on Prime Video. Prior to that, the duo co-created Westworld for HBO, and Nolan co-wrote The Dark Knight trilogy with his older brother, Christopher Nolan. It’s been 12 years since the Nolan brothers closed out their take on Batman in The Dark Knight Rises, but the younger Nolan is still willing to revisit the iconic hero.
“Wouldn’t that be a dream?” Nolan replied during an interview with the YouTube channel Showsha when asked about a potential Batman return. “That period was 10 years of my life [from] when I got the call to work on Batman Begins, and it was epic. Working with Christian [Bale], Heath [Ledger], Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, and to honor an American icon. If I had the chance to go back and work on that again? Absolutely.”
Batman’s cinematic adventures are currently being overseen by writer and director Matt Reeves, who is preparing The Batman – Part II for release on October 2, 2026 and The Penguin spin-off series on Max later this year. Nolan appeared to acknowledge Reeves’ work on the franchise while noting that he already has enough work with Fallout alone.
“We’ve moved onto other things,” said Nolan. “And, of course, other people have picked up the mantel and moved on with those characters.”
Nolan was also asked about who which actor he would want to see cast as Batman in a new trilogy of films. His response was concise: “To me, it will always be Christian.”
