    *Despite his initial willingness to return to his portrayal of Batman in the sequel to {{M|Batman Returns (Film)}}, {{M|Batman Forever (Film)}}, [[Michael Keaton]] eventually decided against it due to issues with the different tone envisaged by director [[Joel Schumacher]], and the role was instead given to [[Val Kilmer]].<ref>[https://variety.com/2022/film/news/michael-keaton-exited-batman-clashing-franchise-tone-1235146685/ "Michael Keaton Says Clashes Over ‘Batman’ Tone Made Him Exit the Role: ‘I Just Can’t Do It’"]</ref> Despite the recast, both ''Batman Forever'' and its sequel, {{M|Batman & Robin (Film)}}, were initially still said to take place within the same continuity as Keaton's portrayal. However, this decision was later retconned through various creator statements, and those films are now stated to take place in a separate universe called [[Earth-97]].<ref>{{Spe|Crisis Aftermath}}</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/SamuelHamm/status/1422769754486415362 Sam Hamm on X: "Nobody goes to Earth-97 these days.

    “ A lot of people think you're as dangerous as the Joker.
    He's psychotic.
    Some people say the same thing about you.
    What people?
    Well, I mean, let's face it. You're not exactly normal, are you?
    It's not exactly a normal world, is it?         		”
