Nightwing . . . Should he be in 'Titans' or should he be solo?

You CAN NOT have a Nightwing movie with out at the least mentioning or flashing back to his time as Batman's sidekick Robin. Look how bad the Catwoman movie did without haveing Batman be in it too.

All you'd have to do is make an off hand vague statement at some point in the movie like "Didn't he operate under another name for a while".

A Nightwing movie would flop...at this point. General moviegoers do not know who he is.

Take the X-Men approach and center the movie around Nightwing the way they center the X-Men movies around Wolverine.

If its a hit then you can put Nightwing in his own movie. I think getting the right actor to play him is key as well a great script and developing Richard Grayson/Nightwing as an interesting character.

IMO, it should wholeheartedly be Tyler Hoechlin. The kid who played in Road to Perdition as Tom Hank's son.

He is 6'1" and 20 years old. When I first saw him and the movie, I thought it was the perfect model for a Batman and Robin movie and this kid is Robin.

See IMDB for recent pics. This is Richard Grayson!

that's the kid from Road to Perdition?

yeah he'd make a good Nightwing, but with features that strong hell he could take on a leading role from any of the major comic book franchises. Green Lantern comes to mind.

agreed. tyler hoechlin would make a great nightwing.

I think a Teen Titans movie period is stupid, but if you're gonna have it, show the more mature Teen Titans including Nightwing, not Robin, as the team leader.

Well what's wrong with a Teen Titans movie? Not a fan of underage heroes?

I love the title of this thread, as if a Nightwing movie will ever happen. I'm hoping the BOOK doesn't get cancelled, and these guys are talking about a movie. Hilarious.

Eh. To each their own. It's one of my favorite titles at DC right now and I would love to see a movie made about it.

I believe that's what they're doing.
