What the cast of Batman looks like today

Comic book adaptations make up a huge portion of the current Hollywood landscape, but back in 1989, the practice was less common. The Dark Knight of the Christopher Nolan films might never have existed if it weren't for Tim Burton's first crack at the character thirty years ago. With the moodiness and distinct visual flavor that have defined Burton's work for decades, Batman was able to move beyond his more family-friendly incarnations and into a complex character that better reflected the contemporary works of comic book luminaries like Frank Miller and Alan Moore. 

Burton's inaugural Batman film would spawn three sequels and inspire the much-beloved Batman: The Animated Series, which has served as a gateway to the comics world for many a millennial. Alongside Burton's stylistic and directorial vision, many incredible actors helped to reestablish the Caped Crusader's influence in popular culture. It's been thirty years since they populated Gotham, so what have all these talented folks been up to more recently?
