Jared Padalecki
As Nightwing

Jared Padalecki was a major teen heartthrob for years, starring in TV hits like "Supernatural" and “Gilmore Girls.” And some recent fanart has led fans to entertain what it would look like if Padalecki were ever to play Batman’s sidekick Dick Grayson/Nightwing.
In a Reddit thread, incredible fanart featuring Jared Padalecki as Nightwing has sparked much discussion among fans. Reactions to the concept were mixed with some feeling that Padalecki is better suited as Batman, but many thought the fan-casting was spot on as user u/Bee_Softy put it, "Ok this would be pretty cool ngl."
There is, however, only one problem with this fan-casting: his age, as Padalecki is in his mid-30s and Nightwing should be in his early-to-mid-20s. You never know, perhaps Padalecki playing an older Nightwing may come to fruition at some point in the future.
