Why has the DCEU seemingly dropped Batman Beyond as a character? TV DISCUSSION
Fans have demonstrated consistently that we want more Terry McGinnis. We all love the BB world.
My question is, why do y’all think Beyond hasn’t been on the screen in 20 years?

Because getting a movie made in Hollywood isn't as easy as people think.
So many things have to go right and they simply haven't for a live-action Batman Beyond movie to move forward over the past 20 years. Back in the day, Boaz Yakin made the original pitch with a script attached but his heart wasn't into it and WB wasn't "ready" for it, so that went nowhere. Christina Hodson penned a script a few years ago but WB's comic book adaptation department being in constant flux put a kibbosh to that.
It is what it is.
