We’ve previously heard that Ben Affleck’s Batman costume in 2016’s Batman vs. Superman will be unlike any other movie costume for the Dark Knight, and will reportedly take influence from Jim Lee’s iconic design.

At TCA today, NBC chairman Robert Greenblatt talked with IGN about the recently ordered Constantine television pilot, which will be executive produced by David S. Goyer and Daniel Cerone. When asked if it would be mostly influenced by the general DC Universe or John Constantine’s supernatural horror roots, Greenblatt said that despite the darker elements, the pilot has a “fun” tone. “I don’t know the DC comic very well, but there is dark, interesting stuff in it, but it’s also got some witty banter. It’s a fun tone, although the supernatural stuff is scary.”  With a slew of DC television shows announced last year, many fans have been wondering if they…

Now, he has discussed his involvement with the pilot. In an interview with DGA, Nutter reveals that he joined the project before he even saw the script. “Well, interestingly enough, this year is the first time I’ve said yes to a pilot before the script was finished.
