You wanna get nuts?

Then askMichael Keatona question about a controversial topic, and hell get nuts.

Thats whatGQdiscovered when they profiled Keaton in advance ofBeetlejuice Beetlejuice.

Michael Keaton as Batman in The Flash movie

The magazine asked Keaton to weigh in onBatgirl, for which he returned asBatman.

The move outraged anyone who wants a long-running studio like Warner Bros to continue putting out movies.

I didnt care one way or another, Keaton admitted to GQ.

Big, fun, nice check.

I like those boys.

Theyre nice guys, he said of El Arbi and Fallah.

Fortunately, things seem to be going well for the directing duo these days.

They earned plenty of praise for the episodes ofMs.

Marvelthey helmed and for their last two films,Bad Boys 4 LifeandBad Boys: Ride or Die.

Keaton said when asked about himself.

Batgirlwas just one of several films slated to feature Keatons Batman.

Keatons Batman did of course make it back to the screen inThe Flash, where Barry Allens time-travel shenanigans.

Originally, that movie was to end with Keatons Batman taking the place of Ben Afflecks version.

Others might be disappointed, but Keatons used to resistance when it comes to Batman.

After all, fans were outraged when the wiry comedian was cast as Bruce Wayne for the 1989 film.

That experience helped Keaton take even the Batgirl cancelation in stride.

Im nothing but only respectful and grateful, 100%, said Keaton.

And proud of it actually, because I like to prove everybody wrong.

Its fun for me.

Maybe hes not so nuts after all.
