Chris McKay also posted on Twitter that he hopes to film something in Detroit, Michigan, which might be Nightwing, as Detroit was actually provided the location for Gotham City in Batman vs. Superman.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart @detfilm for acknowleging the cast and crew of LEGO Batman for all of their hard work. As a fellow midwesterner I love Detroit. Hope to shoot there soon…. https://t.co/1xnq5lofKq

This isn’t going to be like that. I want this movie to blow you away. We need time to get it right.
