“I remember saying something stupid to Tim Burton, I said, ‘You know I can’t understand any man who would wear his underpants outside his trousers.’”
to audition for the director’s 1989 “Batman” movie, but a “stupid” comment cost him the role.
“It was the last thing on my mind to be playing a superhero like Doctor Fate,” Brosnan said, adding that he’s rarely been offered roles in superhero movies throughout his career. “No, not really no. I mean, I went up for ‘Batman’ way back in the day when Tim Burton was doing it. Obviously, I didn’t get the job.”
Brosnan continued, “I remember saying something stupid to Tim Burton, I said, ‘You know I can’t understand any man who would wear his underpants outside his trousers.’ But there you go…the best man got the job, and you know Doctor Fate and I were meant to meet on the same page I think.” Michael Keaton won the role of Burton’s Batman, and the duo would make “Batman” and “Batman Returns” together. Keaton reprised the character in “Batgirl,” which Warner Bros. will no longer be releasing, and in “The Flash,” which Warner Bros. will release in theaters on June 23, 2023.
While Brosnan missed the boat on Batman, he still got a taste of franchise life with his role as James Bond. The actor joined the 007 franchise with 1995’s “GoldenEye.” Brosnan was recently asked by GQ about which actor should replace Daniel Craig as the news James Bond, to which he responded, “Who should do it? I don’t care. It’ll be interesting to see who they get, who the man shall be. Whoever he be, I wish him well.
