The LEGO Movie has grossed over $460 million worldwide, and while audiences fell in love with the lead character voiced by Chris Pratt, Batman's brief role in the animated movie proved to be so popular that he's getting his own spin-off. The movie is actually being fast tracked by Warner Bros. and Chris McKay, the animation supervisor on The LEGO Movie (who was expected to take over from Phil Lord and Christopher Miller on The LEGO Movie 2), will direct. The Hollywood Reporter believe that this LEGO Batman spin-off will possibly even take the 2017 release date held by that sequel with that now being released somewhere further down the line. That's a move which could mean that the 22 Jump Street Duo are able to find the time in their busy schedule to take charge of the follow-up. Will Arnett will reprise the role of Batman - there's a sentence I never thought I'd write - and the fact that Warner Bros. have chosen this character for his own movie should come as no surprise when he's already starred in a number of video games and direct-to-DVD releases.
