An Alternate Reality?: Will Miller Team with Keaton for Flashpoint?

I guess one can only take the current, Batman/Flash buzz with a grain of salt, for rumors this good have a way of fizzling as fast as, well, the Flash. Remember when John Hamm looked like a shoe-in for a seasoned Batman? Yeah, you get the picture.

Now we have this tease about Michael Keaton in early talks to return as the Caped Crusader, but not for the rumored "Batman Beyond" flick. This time it's for a live-action "Flashpoint", headlined by Ezra Miller.  

I've always said that "Flashpoint" (done right) could be the ideal fix for DC's big-budget woes. "Flashpoint" also has the best chance of expanding the Justice League concept for the big screen. 

For sure, a film version would toss the alternate-reality scheme every which way but loose. Though CW has more than tested the waters with this nifty premise (for one, with Grant Gustin and Miller meeting), a silver-screen version of crisscrossing realities, tipped no less by an older, alternate-cinema Keaton Batman, would be the perfect hook to reel audiences in across the globe. Cha-ching!

I know this all sounds too good to be true (and it probably is), but I, for one, hope that the Ezra Miller/Michael Keaton pact has legs. If ever there was surefire gold in a pitch, shoot, this is it.
