Although this might be the pretty first time that a trailer for a trailer has been released, fans are hardly surprised since it is Reynolds we are talking about. As the less than 40-second clip went viral, so did Reynolds’s sweet caption with it.
Stating that it has been seven years of him trying to get Wolverine with Deadpool, the efforts that Reynolds put into thatdream castingwould certainly have been gigantic. And they are nothing compared to Alan Ritchson’s Batman Campaign.

Although his campaign and fan-casting as Batman are undeniably cool, Ritchson’s efforts have not been as persistent as Reynolds’s. Back in February, the actor had stated toBroBible’s Post Credit Podcastthat it was a real honor thatfans were considering him for such a popular role.
And now, recently, in an interview withThe Hollywood Reporter, theReacherstar declared that he would love to be Batman. While it is clear thatRitchson is dedicated to securing such a role, he is not as persistent as Reynolds was and should probably put in more effort if he ever wants to don the iconic black cape.
