Zach Snyder Shaking Things Up – Zach Snyder has confirmed on Vero – his favorite social site for some reason – that no only was the dead Robin NOT Jason Todd, but it was in fact Dick Grayson who died at the hands of The Joker.

He also confirmed that Grayson wasn’t going to be done at all, and that Batman would be Robin-less until…Carrie Kelly.  She was the first female version of Robin in accepted lore, and became a big player in the Frank Miller Batman franchise.

I’m doing the Joker. I was offered a part. That’ll be fun, but i think it’s only a couple days. Play an aging dancer, stripper. I don’t want to go into the details. I can’t go into the details, but just know it’s gonna be good. And I hope my psoriasis is flaring cause that’ll be very funny. I’ll be in a Speed-O, I can’t wait. I have some ideas for it.
