McKay has provided fans with regular social media updates about his plans for the former Boy Wonder, but the movie was one of several DCEU titles absent from Warner Bros.’ subsequent DC movie slate announcements, and with the filmmaker signing on last week to direct a new Dungeons & Dragons movie, questions have been raised about the status of the Nightwing movie.
