After being offered to star in the upcoming film 'The Batman', actor Jonah Hill decided to pass on the role in the movie.The actor, who was first reported to be in early talks for the film last month, is no longer eyeing a role in the Matt Reeves directorial.The reason behind the decision is currently unknown, reported Variety. Insiders told the outlet that when the news was initially reported, it was very early in the negotiations and that a deal was far from closing.Sources said at that time that Hill was considering playing one of the two villains, the Riddler or the Penguin, but he and Warner Bros. could not come to terms on a deal.The news came after actor Zoe Kravitz was recently roped in to play Selina Kyle, also known as Catwoman in the film, which stars Robert Pattinson as the Caped Crusader.The pre-production of the Warner Bros.-DC Comics movie is slated to start this summer.

He also starred with Emma Stone on Cary Fukunaga's Netflix series 'Mac'.He made his directorial debut last fall with 'Mid90s', which he also wrote. He was most recently seen along with Matthew McConaughey in 'Beach Bum', which hit the big screens in March.Ben Affleck was the last actor to play Batman on the big screen in 2016's 'Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice' and 2017's 'Justice League'.The first in the trilogy, 'The Batman', starring Pattinson is slated to release on June 25, 2021.
