I dunno if Robin will be in any of the new batman films but if he was who could play him? I reckon maybe Zac Efron could do it but thats just my opinion

If Robin does appear in another movie, he's probably going to be played by Shia LaBeouf. Not that I would like it, but it would probably still happen.

I would think it'll be a younger kid, someone around 12-14, to play a young Dick Grayson. I don't think they're going to go with the whole "Chris O'Donnell 30 year old Robin" again. That was just stupid. I don't care how old he was supposed to be, he looked too old.

I dont know but Zac Efron certainly has a classic Dick Grayson look!
could be so... could be so!

If/when Chris Nolan introduces Dick Grayson/Robin, I believe he'll be portrayed as a 15-16 year old boy. As to who may play him I have no idea. Are their any 15-16 year old boys out there that can be a young Dick Grayson/Robin?

We dont need Robin.
Neo Darkhalen
They should keep it just as Batman.
DarthLazious
I agree.
I mean if they add Robin then they wont have a dark flim they did planed on having.

I'm 16...I'll do it

Robin won't be introduced, Bob never wanted him in the first place; we need time to explore the villains, Robin wastes time and has no real significance to Batman stories.

It must have been a pain to get them attached... The bear hands, I mean...

I think they could make a reference to Robin, but not ever really use him as Batman's sidekick. Maybe they'll imply in part 3 that the little boy they kept showing in part 1 will become Robin, without actually having it happen of course.

personally i feel they should end the franchise with robin, as in literally have the kid become robin in the last few seconds of the film and don the costume then. then it technically won't be the beginning of batman anymore as he'll have gained so much experience in the field.

That's actually a good idea...
By the end of the fourth or fifth movie, there's no reason why a Richard Grayson could not be on film "training" and/or donning the costume in the final seconds (as you said)

Because he's an essential part of Bruce Wayne's character development...
In Part 1: He's the guy looking for himself and his purpose in the world... He is angry, and Ras Al Ghul takes that anger and morphs him into an avenger of justice
In Part 4: He's established himself... He finds Richard Grayson alone in the world, like he was at his age... He doesn't want him to end up like he did (losing himself in the world), so he takes him in... He senses his anger, and after he goes out alone, Bruce takes Grayson's anger and morphs him into an avenger of justice... Bam! The student of Part 1 has transitioned into the teacher of Part 4...
Character Development, people! His father figure/teacher/guardian status is essential to his story...

He sucks and should take a walk...muahahaha

I would rather they went with the Dark Victory story line and made him younger. It's just dumb to have a 16-20 year old Robin.
I like the way Frank Miller describes it... basically he says, Batman couldn't really defend himself when his parents were killed and training a robin around the same age is kind of like giving his inner child a chance to kick butt. I like that mentality, it makes sense for Batman. But honestly, I really hope they don't add Robin until much, much later, and I'd be okay with never.
DarthLazious
But still we dont need Robin.
