    Too recent and hasn’t been in any (theatrically-released) movies. Plus, before he became the Red Hood he was most well-known for wearing green shorts and getting his head bashed in with a crowbar, which spoils the power fantasy a bit.

      Plus he only really came back with the last Crisis or something, so he’s pretty fresh for lack of a better term

        Nah, he’s been back since 2005, but that’s still a lot more recent than the Punisher. There’s also the problem that the most mainstream DC adaptations won’t even touch Robin, and when they do it tends to be Dick Grayson. To get to Red hood, they’d have to introduce Dick, have him grow out of the Robin role, introduce a replacement Robin, kill him, then bring him back.
