Опубликовано 2 марта 2022, 16:00

There's a reason Batman is so enduringly popular. He's more than just a guy who dresses in spandex and beats up criminals, though that is a big selling point. Batman is a globetrotting hero whose adventures and romantic exploits would make James Bond jealous. He's a master detective. He's a trauma survivor trying to honor his parents' memories in the only way he knows how.

Even after so many live-action Batman movies, there hasn't been a single Batman actor to embody all facets of the Dark Knight. But even so, each Batman has brought something unique and important to the role. As Robert Pattinson's The Batman comes to the big screen, let's take a look back at Batman's big-screen history and why the perfect Batman actor has been so elusive.

From Adam West to Christian Bale, Michael Keaton to Ben Affleck, and George Clooney to Val Kilmer, we're examining the Caped Crusader's storied cinematic past and the many ingredients that go into making the perfect Batman actor.
