Batman is one of the most popular characters ever created, there’s no denying that. The Bat is always in demand and over the years the character has starred in several movies that went on to become huge hits at the box office.

There are other characters from the Batman mythos that fans have been dying to see get the proper treatment on the big screen and now it looks like one of the most popular members of the Bat family might be getting his just due.

THR reports that Warner Bros. is currently developing a Nightwing movie and “Lego Batman” director Chris McKay is in talks to helm the film. Bill Dubuque (The Accountant) has been tapped to write the script.

Nightwing, also known to Batman fans as Dick Grayson, was the original Robin. So far there has been no mention of Grayson in the DCEU, although we do know that a Robin did exist due to the tattered Robin suit we saw in “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” which Warner Bros. confirmedĀ once belonged to Jason Todd.

Warner Bros. and DC currently have several films in various stages of development and it’s not yet known how a Nightwing film will fit into the overall plans or what the target release date might be.

Overall the DCEU has been met with mixed reviews from fans and critics alike so far, but the franchise has a chance to score a big win when “Wonder Woman” hits theaters in June and “Justice League” hits theaters in November.
