Four films and eight years after Tim Burton successfully brought Batman to the big screen, Joel Shumacher's Batman & Robin became the first major miss for The Dark Knight. The film was panned by fans and critics alike, and while Schumacher had a fifth Batman film planned (a draft of a script was nearly complete), it soon became apparent he would be exiting the franchise. Warner Bros. was unsure where to take the Caped Crusader next, and for the next six years a slew of filmmakers came and went, each with their own take on the Dark Knight. Hot talent like Frank Miller, Darren Aronofsky, Se. Andrew Kevin Walker and a pair of untested screenwriters took their shots, until the studio finally settled on Christopher Nolan's take in 2.

The young director, best known for the cerebral indie Memento and the midsize studio film Insomnia, envisioned a grounded take on the character, and teamed with screenwriter David S. Goyer to deliver on that vision.

Now, the filmmakers who tackled Batman during that period of upheaval are sharing details of the films that never got off the ground.

Batman Unchained. Director: Joel Schumacher. Screenwriter: Mark Protosevich. Stars: George Clooney and Chris O'Donnell. Villains: Scarecrow, Harley Quinn … and a whole lot of others.

With Schumacher's Batman Forever a hit, and Warner Bros. Batman & Robin wouldn't be another, the studio was eager to get a third Schumacher Batman film in the pipeline. As the director completed post- production on Batman & Robin in spring 1. Mark Protosevich, who had recently written a draft of I Am Legend for Warner Bros. He met with  Schumacher, who pitched his vision for pushing the franchise in a more serious direction. Schumacher envisioned a psychologically complex take on the character, something he says he wanted to do with his Batman Forever follow- up before getting pushback from the studio and ultimately making Batman & Robin. Scarecrow and Harley Quinn were to be the film's chief villains.

George Clooney (Batman) and Chris O'Donnell (Robin) would be back, but Alicia Silverstone's Batgirl was not in the script. In what would have been big boon, Jack Nicholson 's Joker was also slated to appear, alongside previous villains in the series."It was going to be very dark," says Schumacher.  "I remember going to the set of Face/Off and asking Nic Cage to play the Scarecrow."After meeting with Schumacher, Protosevich locked himself away to slave over the script. What emerged was a roughly 1.

Batman Unchained (often referred to as Batman Triumphant online, though Protosevich is not sure where that name came from). The script dealt with Batman learning to conquer fear and to confront the demons of his past. See more. Batman's Onscreen Villains: 1. Greats From the Joker to Bane. Its two villains had each hated a different aspect of Batman. The brilliant (and satanic) Prof. Jonathan Crane/Scarecrow had a personal vendetta against Bruce Wayne, while Harley Quinn despised Bruce's alter ego.

Harley, a toymaker whom Protosevich describes as "sadistic in a mischievous, fun sense," learns that her true father was The Joker. This sets her on a path of vengeance against Batman for taking him away in the 1.

Eventually, Crane learns Batman's secret identity and teams up with Harley to drive him insane and have him sent to Arkham Asylum. The script culminates with an ambitious, all- star sequence that would have seen a hallucinating Batman face the demons of his past, where he is put on trial by the franchise's previous villains. The studio wanted to enlist cameos from Danny De. Vito (The Penguin), Michelle Pfeiffer (Catwoman), Tommy Lee Jones (Two- Face) and Jim Carrey (The Riddler), all leading up to a final confrontation with the man himself: Jack Nicholson's Joker."Joel wanted to tie up all of the films.

The Tim Burton films and his films, building up to this moment," says Protosevich. During the movie, a rift forms between Batman and Robin, who comes back during the final battle to help his mentor. After defeating his demons, Bruce travels to Bali, where Protosevich read in real life monks enter a cave full of bats to show they have conquered fear.

In the script, Bruce enters the cave as bats swarm around him. Credits roll."There's a similar image in Batman Begins, where he discovers what will be the bat cave and it's filled with bats and they are flying around him," says Protosevich. Not that this scene was inspired by mine, but it was a similar idea.

It was a powerful image."The standout character of the film would have been Harley Quinn, who in the end finds redemption for her villainous ways. Watch Urban Justice Download Full. She was to be complex, conflicted and ultimately a good person underneath. Watch Every Secret Thing Online Hitfix more. While the casting process never got off the ground, Protosevich's agents at CAA set him up for lunch with Courtney Love, who was also repped by the agency and was interested in getting an acting career going."I think she had heard about the possibility of Harley Quinn being in the new Batman and was thinking she would be good for it," says Protosevich. But we didn't really talk about that.

We talked about a lot of other things. It was certainly one of the better lunches I've ever had in my career in show business."See more Batman Through the Years.

Protosevich was finishing up his first draft when Batman & Robin hit theaters in June 1. The backlash against the movie was immediate. Shortly after, Protosevich received a call from Schumacher, who asked to see his script — which was still an unpolished first draft. Schumacher shared it with Warner Bros. Tom Lassally, among only "a handful of people on the planet" who have ever read the script, says Protosevich, noting the script has never leaked online."A few days later, I'm getting a call from Joel, whose main comment was that I had written maybe the most expensive movie ever made. Then I remember I never heard from the executive at Warner Bros.

I called many times, never got any kind of response," says Protosevich. This got into a period of weeks and then a month, and my agent pestering Warners. And the next thing I knew, they were pulling the plug on the whole project. They were going to wait and see what they were going to do with Batman.

In the weeks after Batman & Robin's release, two young screenwriters Lee Shapiro and Stephen Wise were meeting with Greg Silverman, then a junior production executive, about a post- apocalyptic script they were working on.
