Casting rumours for the role of Dick Grayson in Chris McKay's upcoming Nightwing movie have been swirling all weekend but the filmmaker has now made it clear that the search still hasn't started...

Over the weekend, Stranger Things 2 star Dacre Montgomery got speculation swirling when he Tweeted and deleted an image of Nightwing. Many fans have assumed that he could be in talks for the role and that, as with Shazam, we'll hear something official shortly. Unfortunately, The LEGO Batman Movie and Nightwing director Chris McKay has confirmed that the casting process hasn't begun...yet.



As you can see below, McKay has confirmed that the hunt for Dick Grayson will be a big one and it seems we shouldn't necessarily pin our hopes on Warner Bros. choosing a big name actor because there may even be an open casting call giving unknowns the chance to suit up as the superhero.



He's also revealed that work on the script is still ongoing and that the only way Nightwing will begin production next year is if its perfect. So, it seems we're stuck waiting and seeing for the time being but feel free to let us know your thoughts on who should play Dick Grayson in the comments section.
