Speculation persists that the longtime Supernatural star might lend his talents to Gotham’s protector.
Is there another DC hero as popular asBatman?
Jensen Ackles as the DCU’s Batman?
More recently, a viral post from a Facebook page dropped an intriguing tidbit.
A dubious-looking image of a Batsuited Ackles was also included.
The information in the Facebook post is false.
The graphic also looks to have been created by a fan artist or even generative AI.
It’s easy to see how DC devotees would arrive at the idea of Ackles playing the Caped Crusader.
He has been a popular fan cast for the character for over a decade.
Additionally, Ackles hasn’t been shy about his ambition of portraying the DCU’s Bruce.
Would I want to do it?
Would I entertain the idea of playing my favorite superhero of all time?
Nah, I’m good.
It seems like a lot of work, you know.
You gotta put in a bat suit and be a superhero.
I would love it.
Sign me up."
It should be pointed out that Jensen Ackles is 46 years old.
This would rule Ackles out of the role.
What Is the DCU Batman’s Current Status?
Bruce Wayne is slated to make his first DCU appearance inBatman: The Brave and the Bold.

The movie is likely a long way off, however.
In November 2024,Gunn saidBrave and the Bold’s script was not completed yet.
The fanbase especially desires this action asThe Batman Part II’s release date only seems to get further away.

Hopefully, the latest incarnation of the hero will be well worth the wait.
The next scheduled DCU project isSuperman, which hits theaters on July 11.
