The DCU is right to start with Damian Wayne instead of Bruce.
James Gunn’s exciting announcement for the future of the DC Universe teases many intriguing projects. It seems as if Gunn is headed towards a well-planned concept for a shared universe. The DC films have been lacking clarity for awhile, and it's rewarding for fans to see that there seems to be an attempt at correcting past mistakes. However, a new universe also requires a new Batman, as Robert Pattinson’s role in The Batman is now deemed part of the “Elseworlds” canon.
DCU Will Explore the Larger Bat Family Universe The larger DC Universe that includes the entire Bat Family has barely been explored on the big screen in live-action. While Burt Ward’s iconic performance in the original Batman television show was iconic for its time, it was before many of the most interesting developments in Dick Grayson’s fictional history had appeared in the comics.
Damian Wayne's Story Introduces Interesting Takes on Morality One of the most interesting aspects of Damian’s character is that compared to Dick Grayson in particular, he is a much darker version of Batman’s sidekick. Unlike the other Robins, Damian went through the same brutalistic training with the League of Shadows that his father did, which gives him a harder edge and narrower worldview.
While most depictions of Damian are on the younger side, the character’s ruthless attitude may help draw in an audience that wasn’t quite as interested in seeing a new superhero film starring a child. Reframing Robin around a coming-of-age story could be an intriguing angle, as seeing adolescent responsibilities clashing with the role of a hero is something that the MCU has really taken advantage of with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man films.
