Why the Oscar-winning feature Birdman should be seen as Michael Keaton's final run as Batman.
In 1989, Michael Keaton took over the role of Bruce Wayne in the first live-action Batman film since the Adam West 1966 feature. Keaton starred as the Dark Knight in both Tim Burton's 1989 Batman and his 1992 Batman Returns. The films were positively received by both fans and critics and a third feature, Batman Forever, was greenlit. This time, though, Joel Schumacher would step in to direct.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY That brings us to Birdman or ; it's not about Bruce Wayne/Batman, but it should be. The Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu feature is about Riggan Thomson , a former movie superhero turned Broadway star hoping to resurrect the stagnant stage of his career.
In Batman Beyond, Bruce Wayne doesn't retire willingly. He succumbs to old age and being physically weak. He's broken both inside and out. Birdman is a symbol of Thomson trying to find peace in a new world that he's not familiar with. Granted, his version of peace ultimately sees him shoot himself in the face. That moment really exemplifies that his issues don't have a quick fix, despite the success of his Broadway play.
