It's been almost 25 years since Kevin Conroy voiced Batman for the first time in Batman: The Animated Series. Over the years, he has voiced the character in numerous ventures, for both small and big screens.
However, he has never portrayed the Caped Crusader in a live-action venture. Actually, he hasn't appeared in any live-action DC Comics-based movie or television show.
But it seems that if Warner Bros. were to ask the 60-year-old actor to make a cameo appearance in a DC Extended Universe installment, he would gladly say "YES!"
During a recent interview, CBR asks Conroy about whether he would be interested in showing up in any of the upcoming DC movies. And here's how he responds:
Wouldn't that be cool? I'm amazed no one's thought of that! [That would be] so cool.
Hardly anyone would say that this isn't a cool idea. We would definitely love to see Kevin Conroy in a DCEU movie, sharing the screen with Ben Affleck's Bruce Wayne, if not the superhero alter-ego. Perhaps it would be even better if it's in the untitled Batman standalone movie.
We love Stan Lee's cameos in Marvel movies, and we also loved the deleted scene (the promotional clip that was never meant to be in the movie) from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in which Affleck's Bruce Wayne interacts with the voice of Lego Batman, Will Arnett.
And we also love the fact that television shows like The Flash and Supergirl have featured actors like Mark Hamill, John Wesley Shipp, Dean Cain, and Helen Slater, who have portrayed iconic DC characters in the past.
Kevin Conroy may be eager to appear in a DCEU movie but he isn't very pleased with the way they depicted the Dark Knight in Batman v Superman. He doesn't have a problem with Ben Affleck, the actor, but he doesn't like a particular trait of his version of Batman.
During another recent interview with IGN, the actor reveals that he loves the fact that Batman "never kills anybody" and "doesn't cross that line". He adds:
In the most recent live action movie, that seems to have been a line that was crossed and it's not one I'm particularly comfortable with.
