Krasinski rose to fame in NBC’s hit comedy as the lovable, loved-up, prankster Jim. He may be one of the most popular comedy characters of all time because of his increasingly complex practical jokes—who can forget quad-desk?—and his will-they-won’t-they relationship with Pam.
Now, he’s reported to be the most likely choice to portray Batman in Andy Muschietti’s The Brave and the Bold, which will indicate the new Dark Knight’s entry into the DC Universe – but is this true? Here’s everything we know so far.
Is John Krasinski playing Batman?
According to a viral post on X (previously known as Twitter) by a scoopster operating from an account named MCMCulture, John Krasinski has been signed by the DC Universe to portray Batman in The Brave And The Bold and maybe in future projects. There has been no confirmation from either party, however, the insider is very confident about their gossip. The tweet also mentions Andy Muschietti directing the film, which James Gunn has already confirmed.

In any case, The Flash making Warner Bros suffer a massive loss and continuing to hire Andy Muschietti for a Batman film demonstrates the studio’s faith in the director. But we are now eager to see how John Krasinski takes over Gotham after Ben Affleck and if this report is accurate, how Robert Pattinson continues to play Bruce Wayne in an alternate timeline. Meanwhile, John, who portrays the legendary Reed Richards in the MCU’s Doctor Strange 2, has already stated that he would not be repeating his role as Reed in Fantastic Four Reboot.
