The highly anticipated movie, The Flash, is set to bring back Michael Keaton’s Bruce Wayne after over 30 years. Fans have been eagerly waiting for glimpses of Keaton’s Batman, and now, a new spot for The Flash has revealed the first footage of Keaton’s unmasked Batman in the film.

During the Max streaming service reveal event, Warner Bros. Discovery showed off a new spot for The Flash. It included the first footage of Michael Keaton’s unmasked Batman in the Batcave, donning a variation on his classic 1989 Batman suit. In the footage, Keaton asks Ezra Miller’s two Barry Allens if they “need some help.” The returning Batman was also shown gliding through the air with his wings spread after jumping from the Batplane.

An Older, But Lively, Batman

At 71 years old, Michael Keaton will be playing the oldest Batman ever brought to screens in The Flash. However, the footage shown so far suggests that Keaton’s Batman is still as lively as ever, fighting off criminals and jumping from the skies with strength and energy.

Unclear Extent Of Bruce Wayne’s Appearance

Although Keaton’s Batman will feature in The Flash, it is still a solo movie for Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen. It remains unclear how much of Bruce Wayne outside his superhero persona fans will see. The first look at Keaton’s intense-looking billionaire was already released online, but the extent of his non-superhero appearance in the movie is currently unknown.

Keaton’s Batman Future

Keaton’s Batman was originally set to make long-term appearances across several DC films, including Batgirl, an Aquaman 2 cameo, and a Batman Beyond solo movie. However, all those plans have been abandoned, and the role of the new Dark Knight will be rebooted with a different actor under DC Studios CEO James Gunn.
