- Batman (1989) After Adam West, Michael Keaton was cast as Batman, and people, after getting the news, were highly skeptical.

- Batman Returns (1992) Batman Returns is the second installment of Michael Keaton’s Batman movies and features Catwoman played by Michelle Pfeiffer. This movie has the scariest and ghore-filled presentation of the penguin, played by Danny DeVito, ever seen in a live-action Batman movie.
- Batman Forever (1995) In 1995, Val Kilmer was cast as Batman for Batman Forever and I won’t be wrong to say that it turned out to be a hot mess. Val Kilmer, in himself, was not bad in the role of Batman but the way this movie was made took Batman back to the Adam West era.

Batman (1989) Tim Burton took over as director of the first Batman film in 1986. Steve Englehart and Julie Hickson wrote film treatments before Sam Hamm wrote the first screenplay. [23] [25] Numerous A-list actors were considered for the role of Batman before Michael Keaton was cast.
- Adam West - the kitsch Batman. Sporting a light-grey bodystocking Batsuit and what can only be described as silky, tactical Granny pants, Adam West’s Batman patrolled a sunny and un-Gothic Gotham for 120 episodes of campy, unintentionally hilarious crime fighting from 1966-1968.
- Michael Keaton – the era-defining Batman. For anyone who’s grown up knowing Michael Keaton as Adrian Toomes/Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming it may be hard to believe that his casting in 1989 as the Dark Knight in the first blockbuster Batman of the modern era was very controversial.
- VAL KILMER – the REBOUND Batman. After two Gothic and – for some younger viewers – a little too gruesome Tim Burton Batman movies, it was decided to nudge the Dark Knight back towards his more kiddie-friendly TV origins.
- George Clooney – THE wisecracking BATMAN. Stylistically and tonally, history has not been kind to Schumacher’s two Batman films, but his first was actually pretty successful at the box office.

- Robert Lowery. Lowery took over the role in the follow-up serial, 1949’s Batman & Robin. Unlike Lewis, Lowery, 36 at the time, was a veteran actor, having already appeared in The Mark of Zorro (1940), The Mummy’s Ghost (1944), and Dangerous Passage (1944).
- Adam West. The man logging the most hours in the Batcave, of course, was William West Anderson, whom you probably know better as Adam West. Either you love him for his goofy charm or hate him for blemishing the Bat’s image for several decades.
- Michael Keaton. It took more than 20 years for Adam West to lose his exclusivity on Batman. When director Tim Burton (who like Dozier was not a fan of comic books) and Michael Keaton were announced for 1989’s Batman, fans went bat-shit crazy, thinking their beloved superhero was going to get the Adam West treatment again.
