Iain Glen is all set to play Gotham City’s famous crime fighter Bruce Wayne on television. Best known for playing Ser Jorah on the HBO show Game of Thrones, Glen will play billionaire vigilante Bruce Wayne on DC’s Titans according to Deadline.
Glen plays an older version of Wayne who, after several decades of defending Gotham as Batman, reunites with old friend Dick Grayson to help his Titans troupe. Here’s the official character description from the producers: “After decades of fighting crime as Batman, billionaire Bruce Wayne is just as driven to protect Gotham from evil as he was in his prime. Needing to reconcile his relationship with Dick Grayson, the duo hope to forge a new dynamic as Bruce tries to help his former sidekick and the Titans achieve success.” Deadline added that it’s not clear if Glen will appear in Batman’s costume at any point during the series.
