In the new issue of Entertainment Weekly comic book legend Frank Miller, while being chosen as one of the magazines It creators of the moment, talked about two upcoming BATMAN projects: the sequel to his groundbreaking 1986 mini-series BATMAN: THE DARK KNIGHT RETURNS and adapting his BATMAN: YEAR ONE to the big screen with director Darren Aronofsky (REQUIEM FOR A DREAM).
"I see BATMAN as a Wagnerian character," Miller told the magazine. "I take the words larger than life very seriously which is why I draw BATMAN seven feet tall."
He also hinted at future aspirations in film. "The fan in me would love to write a Clint Eastwood movie."
