It may have been the biggest movie news to come out of Comic-Con:

Batman will play a key role in the Man of Steel sequel, which is expected to hit theaters in 2015.

But with Christian Bale having already said his days as The Caped Crusader are over, the buzz has already begun: Who will team up with Henry Cavill in the upcoming blockbuster?

Take it away, Jensen Ackles!

"Any guy in his right mind would die to play Batman," Ackles told E! News of the gig. "It would be a dream come true. I won't hold my breath."

The actor is already busy shooting Supernatural Season 9, but we're guessing he could fit Batman into his schedule if he received the signal.

Do you think Jensen Ackles would make a solid selection as Batman?
