DC 's latest Batman movie features a Dark Knight who is not afraid of getting bloody, and I'm convinced that makes perfect sense for this iteration of the hero. While that has happened at times, especially in Elseworlds stories, Batman is not meant to kill in DC Comics. He has a strict no-kill rule, which other members of the Bat-Family follow.

Batman's live-action movies have played fast and loose with his no-kill rule, ranging from Batman directly killing villains to indirectly murdering several goons. Most live-action Batman actors have seen their versions of the Dark Knight kill at least one character. However, Batman's animated movies are closer to the comics, but not when it comes to the hero's 2025 film.
