This MCU Star Wants To Be Batman In James Gunn’s
New DCU
By JEREMY MATHAI
Winston Duke, who played M'Baku in the “Black Panther” movies, would love to cross the aisle from Marvel to DC and suit up in the famous cape and cowl as Batman himself.
Duke is well aware of how, if he got this role, he'd be upending the established quo because Batman is usually depicted as
white in DC fiction.
Duke leaped at the idea of portraying Batman in a live-action film, saying ”I would love to. I would love to do that as Batman. I'd love any opportunity to explore new characters.”
He continued, “To change narratives around some of these entrenched ideas of how these characters are supposed to look, sound, and perform. I'm all for it.”
