They could then call him Black Ice! I can just hear his corny lines now. "You will slip and slide to your doom!" "I slid away from you again Batman!" "You will never catch me because I am slippery when cold!"

Or would their be too much outrage actually?. I would say yes. but Only if they were the best actor for the role. And depending on various circumstances.
Then again, do we need any more batman movies really? Sorry, that's beside the point.

Personally I wouldn't care. As long as the performance and the movie were good. I was one of the few that didn't freak out when it was suggested that Michael B. Jordan was being considered for Superman.
Honestly speaking, would it really matter if Robin, for example, were a teenaged inner city black kid? Actually I think that would be kinda cool.

if you make a black actor play a criminal that would be racist No, it wouldn't. Idris Elba is playing the lead criminal in Hobbs and Shaw.

What a stupid fucking thread. A black actress famously played Catwoman in the 1960s series. What I am trying to get at, is with outrage culture nowadays would people object to something like Batman being black?. Yes. They would. But it should be done anyway. Sooner or later it will happen, so why not sooner.
I think people will freak MORE if its a lead character, like Batman himself; as opposed to say Commissioner Gordon; or Lucius Fox (who is a black character in the comics anyway, so...).

I remember some suggesting Idris Elba himself should play Batman.

I remember some suggesting Idris Elba himself should play Batman. I could see that actually. I'd prefer him to Robert Pattinson, for crying out loud!
As a matter of fact...
