Cobra Kai Star Wants To Play Robin In A Batman Movie

[Animous]

Cobra Kai star, Tanner Buchanan, wants to play Robin alongside Robert Pattinson in a Batman film. Buchanan is an American actor best known for his role as Robby Keene in Cobra Kai. He has portrayed Robby for three seasons and will be reprising his role for Cobra Kai season 4, which releases on December 31st. In addition to Cobra Kai, he recently starred in Netflix's He's All That and has previously appeared in Girl Meets World and Fuller House.

As Cobra Kai season 4 approaches, viewers are eager to see how Buchanan's character will continue to develop. Robby is one of the most complex characters of the series, who often struggles between doing what is right and what is wrong. He is the estranged son of Johnny Lawrence (William Zabka), and his stint in juvenile detention after a school fight made him vulnerable to John Kreese's (Martin Cove) influence. Now, Robby has joined Cobra Kai, and season 4 will see him pitted against Lawrence's and Daniel LaRusso's (Ralph Macchio) joint forces. In the midst of his Cobra Kai career, Buchanan has his eyes set on another large role.

As reported by Showbiz Cheat Sheet, Buchanan revealed on a Just for Variety podcast that he would like to portray Robin alongside Pattinson's Batman. Buchanan isn't sure if Pattinson's Batman will have a Robin in the future, but he wants to convince them to create the role for him. Pattinson is one of Buchanan's favorite actors, and Robin is one of his favorite superheroes; thus, this is his dream role and one that he would fight for. Check out Buchanan's statement below:

Ever since I found out Robert Pattinson was playing Batman, he’s one of my favorite actors, I was like I need to play his Robin. That is my role. I need that one so badly. I don’t know if he’s going to have a Robin. But I’m going to start convincing him that I need to do it. Obviously, it helps I already have the fight training. He’s always been one of my favorites because I grew up watching and reading the Teen Titans, the cartoon and everything. Even when I was little I always wanted to be Robin. I wanted to be Robin. So hey, if Robert Pattinson needs a Robin, I’m going to fight for that one. I’m going to go for that one. That one’s going to be my role.

Buchanan makes a great point that his Cobra Kai career has equipped him with the fighting skills he would need to succeed in a role such as Robin. Meanwhile, as a young actor on the rise with several impressive acting credits to his name, it wouldn't be surprising to see him in a role for another large franchise on the big screen. Meanwhile, Buchanan's Cobra Kai co-star Xolo Maridueña is portraying Blue Beetle in an upcoming film, illustrating the appeal that the young Cobra Kai cast holds for superhero films. Many of the Cobra Kai actors are young, rising actors with impressive fighting and acting skills. With one Cobra Kai star nabbing a superhero role, it is entirely possible that Buchanan can work his way into such a role as well.

Overall, it is exciting to see a young actor with such strong determination and confidence. Even if he does not specifically land a Robin role, his work ethic will likely land him in other large roles in the future. For now, he is already impressing with his Cobra Kai career. With Cobra Kai renewed for a fifth season, Buchanan could potentially be portraying Robby for quite some time, opening up many possibilities for his character's growth and storyline. Viewers can catch Buchanan in action on Cobra Kai season 4 beginning on New Year's Eve and see for themselves how the actor might fit the role of Robin in the future.
