I'd rather them just have him play Batman again, no grey hair. Get it dark again. He's in great shape and if Harrison can do it, Keaton will own the role again and deserves another movie.
Micheal Keaton back has Batman???

More set photos.
The best Batmobile IMO!
The Furst-Mobile is one of the best cinema cars, ever! The lines, the shapes; it's aggressive but also chic. It's not a hulking mish-mash of segment plating, it's---well, sexy! No Batmobile has ever gotten close to what this achieved. It's utterly gorgeous.

Actually revisiting Batman and Returns, i do think it would be better if Keaton was a retired Batman.
As “Batman” movies, they arnt very faithful to Batman. Batman kills with minimal remorse, Penguin is more disguisting freak than cunning weapons broker, and Joker is driven by base desires rather than pure chaos.
I was stated that movie execs wanted Burton to make Batman darker to change the image from the campy Adam West iteration but Burton also took inspiration from Batman’s darker stories like the Killing Joke. You could argue that these stories are set around a Batman who is pushed too far and near the end of his rope (there is the fan implication that Bats kills Joker at the end of KJ) so Keaton Batman could be the Batman that finally took the plunge.
usually when Batman reached this point, he retired like he did in Beyonds where he hung up the cape after being forced to rely on a gun. I do think a retired Keaton would be more interesting character (his wayne is better than his batman) and he could serve as a warning to the other Batmans for when they go too far (which the other cinematic batmans have done).
Or keaton could just be original pulp inspired Batman who freely used guns lol.

I wonder if that's one of the original ones from '89.
I know Warner still has an original on display at their studio lot. If it's just a cameo, they'd probably simply use that one again rather than build a new one; that is unless they plan on doing some extensive driving shots (which would be a shame if they didn't).
I don't know if the original one from the first film is still around. The one commonly seen are from the second film (car shells made from the same molds), they're essentially the same car with minor differences. The biggest change to mind was the second car was painted mostly black, whereas the first was sprayed with a finicky pearlescent sheen. It was easy to scuff, didn't read on camera, and a lot of work to apply it so they dropped it for later cars.
That's the Returns Batmobile. The original didn't have the windshield wipers on it. This one does.
I noticed that but wasn't sure.

This is the Batmobile from the WB studio tour Batcave. It has windshield wipers. They could have used this car for the movie.
