Christopher Nolan Used Superman: The Movie To Help Him Make Batman Begins His Way

Batman Begins was definitely quite different from the Tim Burton/Joel Schumacher cinematic Batman era, and that paid off for Warner Bros, with the movie earning critical acclaim and making over $375 million worldwide. Its successors would both go on to gross more than $1 billion, and The Dark Knight in particular is not only considered to be one of the best superhero movies of all time, but one of the best films of the 21st century. Had the Warner Bros brass forced Nolan to have Bruce Wayne suit up earlier, perhaps Batman Begins wouldn’t have been as successful. Fortunately for Nolan, arguably the most famous on-screen version of Superman was in his corner, and while the director did have to fudge the truth a little to get his point across, it all worked out in his favor.
