It’s worth noting that in Joker (2019) there’s a child version of Bruce Wayne, but it’s just a small appearance, and never as Batman, hence why the movie is not on the list. Moreover, in 1943 and 1949, there were two Batman theatrical serial releases, Batman and Batman and Robin. However, in modern days they are considered TV shows considering their length.
