Sam Raimi directing a Batman?
Sam Raimi ultimately has two specialties in his career. Horror movies with works like the trilogy evil Deadthe film To hell or Hunches. And super hero movies with Darkman, the trilogy Spiderman and soon Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Well with the Batman character, he could possibly reconcile the two. Indeed, in a recent interview with Empire, the filmmaker shared his desire to make a film Batman In the coming years :
I’ve always loved Batman. If I saw the Batsignal lighting up the sky, I would come running. If I heard The Shadow’s deep laugh rise from the shadows, I’d take a chance too. As well as Spider-Man, of course, who came before Doctor Strange, and who I don’t want to erase from my list.
