Darren Aronofsky's take on Batman may not have seen the light of day, but its influence can apparently be felt throughout Warner Bros. DC Comics films.
In a recent interview with FirstShowing.Net, Aronofsky spoke about his defunct film adaptation of Batman: Year One. And as he revealed, the film's planned style lines up pretty closely with the Joker standalone movie that is currently in development.
"You know what, I think it's finally... I think we were basically, whatever it is, fifteen years too early." Aronofsky explained. "Because I hear the way they?re talking about the Joker movie and that's exactly ? that was my pitch."
