Thomas Wayne is not only a minor character, but he's also perceived as old. There's likely only two scenarios where he's even in DC movies: 1. Some kind of flashback/origin story; and 2. Flashpoint or some other kind of alternate universe.

I don't think Mortensen is ready to hang them up quite yet and accept the role of aging anti-hero or dad. If he wants to keep his crediblity, as an action star, outside of a Liam Neesen type trajectory, playing Batman's dad is probably not the way to go.
