BvS Would Richard Grayson be part of this movie?

Yeah I'd love it if Dick was in this movie, and Jason (hopefully dead and mourned) too.

I can't take older Batman too seriously if he hasn't had something resembling a bat-family, if he has been operating for over 20-30 years and hasn't even had one robin yet, then it's as silly as a Superman that's been operating for that long and hasn't met Lois yet.
 
With how much Snyder loves DKR and how he seems to be using everything he can get away with from it, I wouldn't be surprised if he adapted the scene of Bruce mourning Jason, but with Superman replacing Carrie.
 
I would like to see Dick Grayson in BvS, but as for the other Robins, I'd rather not. In the comics the batboys' group dynamics is lovable, but in a movie? One Robin is enough for me, thanks.
 
I personally expected him to be about 22. Old enough for hearts to flutter in the audience but young enough so that he thinks he knows everything and Bruce still needs to train him

but if he is Nightwing by then then he's pretty much learn't all that Bruce has to offer and has already fallen out with him by then.
 
Another suggestion for Dick Grayson: danish actor Sandro Lohmann (b. 1991).
He would bring a darkness to the character that suits the MOS universe.
 
Since I'm one of those Superman fans who hate how Batman has hijacked my MOS sequel, I hope at best there is only mention of past Robins and current Nightwing.

Yes, I'm still hurting :( ;)
 
Rumors is that the dude has drug problems.

Would love to see Robin. But more the post-crisis Jason Todd version. Problematic in ths "crowded movie".
 
I think the way to do it is to have Dick as Nightwing off doing his own thing during the events of BvS, Jason can be dead, and the next Batman solo can be based on Court of Owls, so we can get the Dick Grayson origin there and plenty of Bruce/Dick scenes that focus on the parallels like in Dark Victory.
 
I like to see Bruce call Dick even if relationship is poor and ask him to watch over Gotham while he is away.......I think most scene will be in Metropolis
 
I like Nightwing, but I find the style of Nightwing solo stories to be pretty bland when distanced from Batman/Gotham. Doesn't seem to have a strong stylistic identity/direction.

i disagree strongly. Bludhaven has been established plenty in the comics, and i see a Nightwing series working really well. at least one solo Nightwing movie could be done well. I'd do Deathstroke vs Nightwing in Bludhaven with Oracle as a supporting character
 
I don't expect Dick Grayon in this one. Great if he is in a cameo but I don't think we see him until more likely JL2 (still cameo) or a solo BatFleck.

To me, the style just feels like Batman-light. It's Batman, but with less Gothic influence, less 'insanity', less 'detective noir story', less memorable rogues, less powerful imagery in the costume. The only thing Nightwing has 'more' than Batman on the surface is sex appeal.

Also, since the name Nightwing is just two random 'cool' words put together that doesn't mean anything, it doesn't evoke any specific imagery or concept (unless you happen to be familiar with krypton wildlife). I only think it works as a contrast to Robin, and by extension, Batman. When distanced from those two concepts, I don't think your left with much on the surface beyond "sexy 'cool' crime-fighter guy". Obviously there's a lot to the character, but I'm just talking about the style.
