DC Studios and The Batman social media channels have uploaded the official logo for “The Batman Part II” - which will be released next year and will once again be directed by Matt Reeves - with Robert Pattinson returning as Bruce Wayne/ Batman and continuing his crusade against crime in Gotham City.
The Batman Part II is slated for release on October next year.
Those who were looking forward to Robert Pattinson's return as Bruce Wayne/ Batman in Matt Reeves' "The Batman Saga" will have to be extra patient with the next movie's release, as the untitled sequel to 2022's "The Batman" has been delayed yet again - this time to October 2027 and due to work still being needed to finish the script for the follow-up.
On Threads, DC Studios head James Gunn confirmed and gave an explanation for the delay:
"Sure. Yes, it is true. The only reason for the delay is there isn’t a full script (those of you who follow me here probably know that already). Matt is committed to making the best film he possibly can, and no one can accurately guess exactly how long a script will take to write. Once there is a finished script, there is around two years for pre-production, shooting and post-production on big films."
Recently the first spin-off series in "The Penguin" finished its first season run on Max, with Colin Farrell returning as Oswald Cobb/ The Penguin in a story set after the events of "The Batman" and explaining the origins of not only Oz but the various Gotham crime families like the Falcones and Maronis as well.
Those looking forward to the return of Matt Reeves’ world of Gotham City and its vigilante defender will have to wait a little bit longer, as Deadline has broken the news that Warner Bros. has delayed the tentatively titled “The Batman 2” - moving its released date from October 2025 to October 2026.
The delay is said to be due to the aftereffects of the dual strike that hit Hollywood last year which caused several projects to be affected and pushed back. Matt Reeves of course is working on the sequel to the hit 2022 reboot that saw Robert Pattinson play Bruce Wayne and don the cape and cowl - and where he faced Paul Dano’s Riddler and had romantic tension and chemistry with Zoe Kravitz’s Selina Kyle/ Catwoman.
The Batman of course is a DC Elseworlds project and will not share the same shared universe as James Gunn’s DC Universe of films. While fans will have to wait a bit longer for Pattinson’s return as the Caped Crusader, there’s a consolation in the form of Max’s upcoming “The Penguin” TV series later this year - which is a spin-off series and where Colin Farrell reprises his role as Oswald Cobblepot.
After earning more than $750 million in the worldwide box office and seeing more than 4.1 million viewers since its release on HBO Max as well as other digital platforms, a sequel to Matt Reeves' "The Batman" was inevitable... And that announcement was officially made on this year's CinemaCon as the Warner Bros. presentation saw the director appear and confirm that it is indeed happening!
Amidst a LOT of WB film news and footage shown at the show floor than includes Shazam: Fury of the Gods, Black Adam, The Flash Movie with Michael Keaton's Batman returning, and so much more, The Batman sequel news was among the first wave of announcements Warner got to share with the public and news sites like Deadline.
Robert Pattinson of course will be returning as this version of the Caped Crusader, but no other information or details were revealed as the sequel is still in the beginning stages of development. Naturally we can expect Zoe Kravitz's Selina Kyle, Jeffrey Wright's James Gordon, and Colin Farrell's Penguin to make appearances too, and possibly Paul Dano's The Riddler will return and maybe Barry Keoghan's Joker as well? Time will tell for sure.
Vengeance is officially coming home to digital and physical media just over a month after its theatrical release, as the critically acclaimed Batman reboot movie that is "The Batman" has been dated - coming to HBO Max and digital platforms starting April 18, and finally on DVD, Blu-Ray, and 4K Ultra HD on May 24!
