COMING SOON TO THE RANKING: Robert Pattinson
1. George Clooney
Actor | The Ides of March
George Timothy Clooney was born on May 6, 1961, in Lexington, Kentucky, to Nina Bruce (née Warren), a former beauty pageant queen, and Nick Clooney, a former anchorman and television host (who was also the brother of singer Rosemary Clooney). He has Irish, English, and German ancestry. Clooney ...
42nd
Batman & Robin (1997)
There is not much to say about this terrible Batman actor, like at all. George Clooney may be a charming Bruce Wayne but he is a terrible Batman. He is just so bad that it seems laughable for him to replace Val Kilmer who all though was bland, was still better than this.
2. Sean Schemmel
Actor | Doragon Bôru Zetto Kami to Kami
Sean Schemmel is an American voice actor who is most well known for voicing Goku in the English-language versions of the Dragon Ball franchise. Aside from Goku, Sean also voiced Black Doom from Shadow the Hedgehog, Gonard from Kappa Mikey, Goku Black and King Kai from Dragon Ball, Lucario from ...
41st
The Dark Knight Rises: The Video Game (2012)
Sean Schemmel isn't terrible, he tries a Christian Bale voice but it kinda doesn't work for me.
3. Val Kilmer
Actor | The Doors
Val Kilmer was born in Los Angeles, California, to Gladys Swanette (Ekstadt) and Eugene Dorris Kilmer, who was a real estate developer and aerospace equipment distributor. His mother, born in Indiana, was from a Swedish family, and his father was from Texas. Val studied at Hollywood's ...
40th
Batman Forever (1995)
Again, not much to say but at least he is better than George Clooney as Batman, despite Kilmer being quite bland and boring.
4. Olan Soule
Actor | Captain Midnight
Olan Soule was born in La Harpe, Illinois and began his acting career in 1926 on radio, performing for 11 years in the daytime soap opera "Bachelor's Children". A versatile actor with a "chameleon-like" voice, Soule played the male lead characters in plays presented on the evening radio show "First...
39th
The Batman/Superman Hour (1968-1969)
Not much to say about Olan Soule, he is not terrible but then again, this is the 60s Batman so yeah.
5. Gary Owens
Actor | SWAT Kats: The Radical Squadron
Gary Owens was an American voice actor, radio announcer and narrator who was known for being the original voice actor of Hanna-Barbera's Space Ghost, Powdered Toast Man from The Ren & Stimpy Show and Blue Falcon from Dynomutt, Dog Wonder.

38th
The New Batman Adventures (1997-1999)
Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008-2011)
Doesn't do a terrible job but I'm not interested.
6. Jason O'Mara
Actor | The Man in the High Castle
Jason O'Mara was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland. Soon after graduating from Trinity College Dublin with a BA in Drama and Theatre he moved to London, England, to further pursue his acting career. Time spent in British repertory theater led to leading roles in acclaimed productions at some of ...
37th
Justice League: War (2014)
Son of Batman (2014)

Justice League: Dark (2017)
Death of Superman (2018)
Reign of the Supermen (2019)
Batman: Hush (2019)
Justice League DARK: Apokolips War
Jason O'Mara is just not good as Batman. He shows blandness and no emotion in his voice. He may have been decent in Justice League War, but later on, his voice got so boring that I'm ultimately glad he's no longer going to voice Batman anymore.
7. Robert Lowery
Actor | House of Horrors
Robert Lowery was born Robert Larkin Hanks in Kansas City, Missouri, the only living child of Roscoe Hanks, noted Kansas City attorney and oil investor; and Leah Thompson, concert pianist and organist. He attended local Kansas City schools and graduated from Paseo High School in 1931 with a record ...

33rd
Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008-2011)

Frank has worked with fellow voice actors Casey Kasem, Nicole Jaffe, Don Messick, Heather North, and Stefanianna Christopherson on ...
32nd
Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008-2011)
Frank Welker is legendary but not a good choice as Batman. He is more Megatron than Batman.

31st (Dick Grayson)
Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008-2011)
Kinda boring but this is the Dick Grayson version from a Brave and the Bold episode I can't remember unfortunately when he becomes Batman after Bruce retired following being married to Selina Kyle and having a son: Damian (not the angry brat from the DC Animated Movies).
13. William Baldwin
Actor | Backdraft
William Baldwin has distinguished himself as an actor/producer/writer who continues to showcase his multitude of talents in the world of film and television.
Baldwin has a busy year ahead starring in several high-profile upcoming projects. He is currently travelling the world shooting back-to-back ...
30th
Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths (2010)
The Movie is awesome but I'm not a big fan of the voice actor they chose for Batman in this movie but the movie makes up for it and his awesome line after besting his evil counterpart Owlman.
14. Kirk Thornton

Kirk Thornton is an American voice actor who voiced in several animated series and video games including Shadow the Hedgehog, Saix and Isa from Kingdom Hearts, Brandon Heat in Gungrave, Hotohori in Fushigi Yugi, Klein in Sword Art Online, Hajime Saito in Rurouni Kenshin, Don Patch in Bobobo-bo ...

23rd (Thomas Wayne)
Justice League: Flashpoint Paradox (2013)
Not really Bruce Wayne but his father Thomas in the Flashpoint universe. He is OP as Thomas Wayne in Flashpoint.
21. Diedrich Bader
Actor | Office Space
Diedrich Bader was born in Alexandria, Virginia, but moved to Paris, France, with his family at age two. While in the "City of Light" he developed an appreciation for movie legends like Fred Astaire and Charles Chaplin. So, when a fragile "Chaplin" movie reel burned in the theater's projector, ...
22nd
Batman: The Brave and the Bold (2008-2011)
Justice League: Trapped in Time (2014)
Harley Quinn (2019-Current)
He is quite awesome but can be a bit boring for me but that's my opinion so don't hate me for just saying Bader is uninteresting if you are a big fan of his Batman.
22. Ben McKenzie
Actor | Gotham
Ben McKenzie was born Benjamin McKenzie Schenkkan in Austin, Texas on September 12, 1978, to Mary Frances (Victory), a poet, and Pieter Meade Schenkkan, an attorney. His uncle is playwright Robert Schenkkan. Ben is of Dutch Jewish (from his paternal grandfather), English, and Scottish descent. He ...
21th
Batman: Year One (2011)
Hey, never expected Jim Gordon being Batman. The actor, not the comics. He does a good job but can be boring and very like emotionless when he talks. He's still awesome.
23. Michael Ironside

16th
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns Part 1 & 2 (2012 & 2013)
Now we're talking! Robocop is AWESOME as older Batman in the TDKR movies and is perfect for a older Batman. Both movies has a very special place in my heart because they adapted perfectly the graphic novel.

11th

Batman: The Movie (1966)
Batman: Return of the Caped Crusader (2016)
Batman: Two-Face (2017)

Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2019)
Troy Baker is a awesome voice actor. He is great at his work, and his Batman is no different. He may be sometimes boring in the Lego Games, but his performance in the Telltale games very awesome. The scene at the end of episode 1 "Realm of Shadow" is no different.

Suicide Squad (2016)
Justice League (2017)
Zack Snyder's Justice League (2021)

6th
The Batman (2021)
That "Vengeance" line says it all. Twilight sparkle as I like to call him, is going to be SPECTACULAR as a young and brutal Batman.

5th
Batman Begins (2005)

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
His voice may have gone too far but still, Christian Bale is great as Batman in the Nolan trilogy.
39. Michael Keaton
Actor | Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance)
Quirky, inventive and handsome American actor Michael Keaton first achieved major fame with his door-busting performance as fast-talking ideas man Bill Blazejowski, alongside a nerdish morgue attendant (Henry Winkler), in Night Shift (1982). He played further comedic roles in Mr. Mom (1983), Johnny...
4th
Batman (1989)
Batman Returns (1992)
"Mr. Mom couldn't be Batman" they said but I guess they had it wrong. Keaton may be a bit too short as Batman, but he delivers it as Batman.
40. David Mazouz

David (pronounced "Dah-Veed") Albert Mazouz is an actor, writer, and producer who graduated from Stanford University in 2023, where he studied Economics and Psychology.

2th
Batman: Under the Red Hood (2010)
Young Justice (2010-Current)
Batman: Gotham by Gaslight (2018)
He is my favourite out of all of them. Bruce Greenwood perfectly uses both his Bruce Wayne voice and his Batman voice like what number 1 did. He is my fan casting for Batman in my own DC Animated Film Universe because he is just that awesome.
42. Kevin Conroy
