Tom Welling reveals he would be open to playing a version of Batman in the Arrowverse. Created by Bob Kane and Bill Finger, the character first debuted all the way back in 1939. Since then, he's been adapted for screens both big and small by a myriad of actors. The translations have ranged from knowingly campy to extremely gritty. On the big screen, he was most recently played by Ben Affleck. It was announced, however, that the character would be returned to his younger years and Robert Pattinson would take over as Batman. On the small screen, Bruce Wayne's formative years were explored by David Mazouz on Gotham.Welling is perhaps best known for bringing another well-known DC superhero to life on the small screen. For 10 seasons, the actor played Clark Kent (aka. Superman) on Smallville on the network that would ultimately become The CW. Exploring the characters younger years, fans never got to experience him becoming the outright Man of Steel until the series finale. For a time, fans hoped he might revisit the role on Supergirl in the same way John Wesley Shipp reprised his turn as Barry Allen/The Flash from the 1990s TV show. Welling ultimately turned down the opportunity. Some fans then turned their attention to him playing Lex Luthor. The roles eventually went to Tyler Hoechlin and Jon Cryer, respectively. Instead, Welling was last seen on episodes of Lucifer.
