Zach Cregger turns the rumors about his screenplay by the Batman movie

Zach Cregger finally clarified the air on his mysterious Batman Shelter Project that was floating online.

Last month, Thr highlighted the growing list of Cregger projects following the success of his horror cinematographic weapons. Among the titles mentioned there was Henchmen, a history of the DC universe set in Gotham City on low -level cheating that accidentally kill Batman and get up to infamy. T

Cregger made fun of the first time Shelves Years ago while promoting Barbarian, calling him his dream project. At the moment, he said:

“If I received the call, I dropped everything and I would go to make that movie in a heartbeat. It is my favorite thing I have ever written. I love it and I’m dying from the desire to do it.”

But the speculation on the fact that the henchmen being a Batman film have recently escaped and Cregger has decided to finally put the record. Speaking on the double toasted podcast, he explained:

“This is fun. This was swept away online. So, yes, I wrote Scagnozzi, which is a story that takes place in the DC universe, as years before I wrote Barbarian, and I really love it.

But it’s not a script by Joker and Harley. I saw it online. And no, I didn’t talk about it with James Gunn. I didn’t really talk to anyone a [DC Studios] Speaking of which.”
