Earlier this year the world lost the original Dark Knight at 89-years-old after a short battle with leukaemia.
Nevertheless West managed to complete recording his lines for his second animated feature-length movie, Batman vs. Two-Face – a sequel to last year’s Return of the Caped Crusaders.
Joined by Star Trek’s very own William Shatner as the iconic villain, West returns with original TV series cast members Julie Newmar as Catwoman and Burt Ward as Robin.
The latter spoke exclusively – and incredibly enthusiastically – with Express.co.uk about West’s final bout at Batman…or is it?
The lively 72-year-old announced himself with “Hello Citizen!” before teasing how we might not have seen the last of Adam West’s Batman.
Ward said: “I don’t know about that. I just don’t know if that’s his final performance or not.
“I can’t say! I’ve already gotten my hand slapped! But I will say this: Technically, things can be done and that’s all I’m gonna say.
“It will definitely depend on how this film [Batman vs. Two-Face] does, but y’know you’d be surprised. Technology is so amazing especially in the film the and television business.”
Ward, who incredibly sounds exactly the same as his 19-year-old self in the 1960s Batman TV series, also revealed how many ‘holies’ he’s made over the years.
He said: “In the series I did 378 [over 120 shows], of which I got to write some of them.”
And when asked who his favourite Batman was other than Adam, he replied loyally: “All the others are wonderful actors, but there’s only one Batman and that’s Adam West.”
