that's not a photo of him in any upcoming titans or anything btw; that's from a show called cleverman, but i posted it mostly because most people would only be familiar with him as scruffy and super-dirty-lookin' as jorah, whereas he actually scrubs up quite well when he shaves and dons a suit.

and i know that pic of bruce is from batman beyond/is thus a bit older than he should be in 'contemporary' times, but i don't really mind that they're going for a slightly older bruce. makes enough sense to pass muster; dick is 28-29 at the start of the series. he was 12 when bruce took him in and started training him as robin, so he's been doing it for 16-17 years.

we know bruce was 25 when he took on the batman mantle. depending on your source, he was anywhere from two to five years in when he took in dick, so aged 27-30. add 17 years, and he'd be anywhere from 44-47 now.

iain glen, at 57, is admittedly a fair shot older than that, but w/e - it's not totally outrageous/nonsensical casting, is all i'm saying. i am not convinced either, but i won't totally write it off until i see it, at least
