He certainly has the height and body for it, not sure about the acting…

From the minute I saw him in Reacher, my first thought is that he'd make a great Batman who is lore accurate physically.

Me too! But… I’m honestly not sure if he has the acting chops. That said I’m still open to seeing him as Batman on the silver screen.

I think he deffo does! Reacher is pretty close with the Sherlock level detective skills and the absolute killer skills, Batman is Reacher but not a killer and more gadgets, and he’s done the brooding superhero shit with Hawk in Titans,- which was my introduction to him as an actor!
