Alternate History 1941 Batman movie by Fritz Lang

Description

This is an alternate history idea if the famous German director Fritz Lang who directed the classic films Metropolis and “M”, directed a Batman movie in 1941, fresh after the Batman comic series was first being made in 1939. I used a modified Batman symbol from Batman Chronicles (1995) because it looks similar in design to the old 1930s-1940s Batman logos. I added the eyes to give the symbol some physical nature to it. Here is the original that I modified  into the version: 

In the alternate history the film would be filmed in colour film, as real films at the time were being made in colour, such as The Wizard of Oz (1939).

Since WB didn't own Batman until the 1960's, which other studios could have made a Batman flick in the early 40's?

- RKO Radio Pictures?
- Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer?
- 20th Century Fox?
- Paramount?
- Columbia?
- Universal?
