10 Cool Scenes Cut From Tim Burton's Batman Movies
9. Bob Kane Cameo - Batman
Reporter Alexander Knox doesn’t find much support at his paper for his Batman theory, and during an early scene, a cartoonist even takes the time to mock this theory with a cute little bat in a business suit. Eagle-eyed fans will be able to spot Batman creator Bob Kane’s signature on this sketch, which he actually drew for the movie.
They’ll also notice the artist clearly isn’t played by Kane, who was supposed to make a quick cameo but was prevented by a schedule conflict the day it was being shot. It would have been a lovely little moment to have Kane appear during Batman’s big screen debut, and it’s not like the role would have stretched his acting muscles far.
Alas, it wasn’t meant to be.
