    New Batman 3 Director?

    Warners reportedly has a back-up plan in case Nolan passes.

    by Jim Vejvoda

    February 24, 2009 - Warner Bros. really wants Christopher Nolan to direct Batman 3. That much is obvious, but a new report suggests that the studio already has a replacement in mind just in case Nolan should pass on helming a third installment.

    Batman-on-Film reports that when "Nolan came to an agreement to helm Inception for Warner Bros., there is at least some sort of understanding between him and the studio that he'll do a third Batman -- though his reps won't confirm or deny it."

    In case Nolan decides to pass on directing Batman 3 -- we already know he's working on the script for it -- then BoF claims that Warners "might" have considered its Watchmen and 300 director Zack Snyder as a possible replacement or as a successor once Nolan completes his trilogy.

    I wouldnt mind seeing Zack do a Batman movie at all, but preferablly not in Nolans world. Since he is so different with his film making style lately I would like to see him do maybe The Dark Knight Returns (millers graphic novel) like he said he wanted to at one time.

    Interesting choice. I'd see the 3rd one if he directed it.

    While I cannot speak for The Watchmen, in 300 shots and scenes, heck even the color stylings were taken directly from the graphic novel. If the watchmen also folows this philosophy to transition comic to movie I'm not sure snyder has what it takes to make a direct followip to DK. DK and BB, while influenced by various batman stories are not direct adaptions, can he add to the real world Gotham and characters Nolan has recreated?

    Ok, so this contradicts what they said a few months ago. A WB rep said they wanted to make a third movie, but that it was up to Nolan to come up with a story. I'm waiting to see who was lying, or if someone jumped the gun.

    His style fits (somewhat) with Nolan's. That said, his films lack the depth that Nolan has put into the characters and world of his Batman films. (Watchmen opens in a week, so lynch me after it opens if I'm wrong).

    Also, Bale would walk, so they might as well just start over again if they use Zack Snyder.

    A representative of Zach Snyder has said this rumor is completely false and Snyder wouldn't even "entertain the idea" of making a third Batman movie.

    this is Nolan's Batman. In Nolan's world, I can't see anyone coming and trying to imitate that.

    Are you saying Snyder's films lack depth but Nolans don't? Cause 300 is very deep in the sense that the men are fighting to keep their friends and families safe, no matter the outcome. I think its a very deep movie, and your overlooking it. How was Batman Begins and TDK deeper?
