Lord & Miller Talk About The Lego Batman Film
Empire Online recently sat down with Phil Lord and Chris Miller, the comedy duo behind Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs, The Lego Movie, 21 Jump Street and 22 Jump Street. Lego Batman was one of the most enjoyable parts of the surprisingly excellent Lego Movie and a spin-off Lego Batman is in the works. Miller gave a little info on the Lego Batman movie in the interview.

"Rest assured that every era of Batman filmmaking will be acknowledged. There have been so many interpretations of Batman and there is so much to play with there. There are 40 versions of his origin story alone"
Miller also stressed that Lego Batman & other Lego spin-offs is that they have their own distinct tone.
"The thing is about these movies is that each of them have their own tone and their own voice. We’re doing this Ninjago one with Charlie Bean, we’re working on the Batman one, and each one of them feels like its own movie, but obviously they all exist in the universe that the Lego movie existed in, and so finding that balance has been part of the trick."
Lord added: “It’s like we started with The Avengers and now we’re going to spin off and explore the different worlds, then come back.”
There’s no solid release date for a Lego Batman movie as of yet, but let’s not hope it’s too long.
