He has worked with Matt Reeves before.

Andy Serkis in Talks to Play Alfred Pennyworth in 'The Batman'

Andy Serkis is in talks to play Alfred Pennyworth in Matt Reeves’ “The Batman,” an individual with knowledge of the project exclusively told TheWrap.

 

[Maze]

 

[Invader Joker]

Where will he find the time between shooting Venom and this? Regardless, AWESOME

 

[Astro13Zombie]

WHAAAAAAAAAAT

 

[Boom]

Yaaaas.

 

[Sawyer]

Considering the Venom 2 of it all, I'm guessing this Alfred might not have quite a Michael Caine-sized role in things this time around...

 

[I Am The Knight]

A Michael Caine in TDKR-sized role, then

 

[Gamma Goliath]

I wonder how much time they really need for alfred scenes anyway.

 

[OutOfBoose]

The first casting choice I outright hate.

 

[Schlosser85]

Alfred doesn’t really need to be a huge role.

 

[Detective Conan]

Seems like a better fit for Penguin than Alfred.

I think a lot of people automatically typecast Andy Serkis with a villain or someone who has to portray a character with motion capture effects, and it's fair because that's what he's really pioneered as. And he's done phenomenal work all across the board with motion cap. But he is also a tremendous actor without that and i always think he gets overlooked for many "regular" roles if you will. I think he'll do great. I'm really excited to see how he and Robert play off together. I can see his Alfred being a combination of what we saw from Gotham as well as the Nolan films. Something in between.
