We’ve lost one of comic and TV culture’s most enduring favorites, as original Batman star Adam West has passed away. The smooth-voiced star became iconic for his portrayal of the ‘60s Caped Crusader, earning a place in the pop culture pantheon over the decades.
When Warner Bros. announced their upcoming superhero schedule last year, one title notably missing was a solo Batman movie.
