10 actors who could play Batman Beyond in the DC Universe
4. Timothée Chalamet
Arguably the biggest name in Hollywood today, Timothée Chalamet’s career has gone from strength-to-strength over the past decade alone… but the 27-year-old actor has been entertaining audiences for a lot longer than that.
From his supporting roles in Showtime’s Homeland and Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar to his mainstream breakthrough in the stunning Call Me By Your Name, he’s been playing multi-faceted characters in all kinds of genres throughout his youth. And the best part about it is that he’s kept it up since breaking through, turning in stellar performances in The King, Little Women and, of course, the incredible Beautiful Boy. He also knows a thing or two about leading blockbusters, being that he plays the main character in Dune and the title character in upcoming prequel Wonka.
The Academy Award-nominated actor has accomplished so much in a short space of time, but he’s yet to play a superhero. He did recently comment on the possibility of playing Robin in a Batman movie, and while he’d certainly be perfect for that role, he’d also make for a great Terry McGinnis.
Not only would he and Michael Keaton undoubtedly make for an incredible on-screen partnership, he still looks young enough to play a teenager and he’s so charming and quick-witted that he’d have absolutely no issue bringing Terry’s colorful personality to life – and that’s so important because it’s what ultimately separates this Batman from the original one.
