The ‘Matrix’ star who has lent his vocals to the iconic caped superhero of ‘DC Comics’ in the upcoming animated movie ‘DC League of Super Pets’, wishes to play the full-length character of Bruce Wayne as well.
Speaking at the premiere of the movie, actor Keanu Reeves dishes on his love for the character. “I love Batman, as a character. I love him in the comic books, in the films, so to get the opportunity to voice, to play Batman was awesome,” he told the press.
He also added that it’s always ‘been a dream’ to essay the role in a ‘Batman’ movie, however, mentioned that Robert Pattinson who took up the role in the last release ‘The Batman’ earlier this year, did an ‘awesome job’ with it.
Moreover, Keanu Reeves reflected on the probability of taking the character for live-action in the near future if makers need an ‘older’ Batman.
