With all this talk about who's going to be the new James Bond, we're all forgetting one important thing: Who's going to be the new Batman?
Sure, Robert Pattinson killed it in his role as The Batman alongside Zoë Kravitz. And yes, the second movie was just confirmed with both Pattinson and the original director returning.
But now that Henry Winkler has put his hat (bat) in the ring, some changes may need to be made.
And if you don't, which rock have you been living under? The legendary 76-year-old actor has been around for decades in Hollywood, starting with his breakout role as Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli on the sitcom Happy Days.
While Winkler has had plenty of roles since then, none have been as iconic as his role as The Fonz.
When he was on the show, his co-stars were even jealous of his star attention.
“I will never forget the day when, though the show was sitting strongly in the number one slot in the ratings, a dejected Ron Howard came into my dressing room and flopped into a chair,” actor Marion Ross wrote in her memoir, My Days: Happy and Otherwise.
“Every damn day it’s the Fonz this and the Fonz that. There are other people involved with this show other than him, ya know!”
Yep, you just can't resist the star power of the Fonz!
That's because the actor is ready to suit up as the next Batman! Okay, not really, how what a happy day that would be if it were true.
In a new segment, host James Corden went to check in on his guest, Henry Winkler. But when he opened the dressing room, he found Henry in a Batman costume.
“You didn’t hear? I’m the new Batman,” Winkler proudly announced. A confused James said that Robert Pattinson is the new Batman.
"He is the present Batman, I am the new Batman," Henry replied.
When questioned who Dennis is, Winkler revealed that in addition to a new Batman, the franchise has a new trusty sidekick! So long, Robin.
Further convinced that Henry isn't the new Batman, James pointed out that the actor is all Batman from the waist up, but not from the waist down. "You're wearing cargo shorts and flip flops," James pointed out.
He was wearing a wig that had a bowl cut, which (to be frank) isn't all unlike how Pattinson's hair looked in The Batman film. (Sorry, Robert.)
“I didn’t realize you were such an aficionado of Batman, James. That you had a Batman degree from Batman university,” Winkler said.
In the end, it was revealed that Henry was involved in an online scam. Sorry, Henry! But don't worry, Dennis is on the case!
