Last month, Warner Bros. announced that they'll be developing a LEGO Batman spinoff film, which is being directed by Chris McKay, who was the animation supervisor on The LEGO Movie. There weren't really any details revealed for the film, but Will Arnett is set to reprise his role as the voice of the Dark Knight. Phil Lord and Chris Miller are also attached to produce the feature.

Miller recently talked to Empire Magazine, and he offered up a really cool piece of information that Batman fans are sure to love. He says,

"Rest assured that every era of Batman filmmaking will be acknowledged. There have been so many interpretations of Batman and there is so much to play with there. There are 40 versions of his origin story alone."

That's so awesome that they are looking to pay tribute to every era of Batman. There's no doubt that they are going to have a ton of fun playing around with all of their options. I'm sure that this will also include Ben Affleck's version of the Caped Crusader.

The first thought that popped into my head when I saw this was the fact that there's a possibility the studio could get Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, and Affleck to voice their Batman characters! I have no idea if that's the plan, but it sure as hell should be.

Seth Grahame-Smith (Dark Shadows) is currently writing the spinoff film, which is set for release in 2017. There are so many different directions that they could take the story for this movie, and I'm really excited about seeing what the creative team comes up with.
