DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn has offered up a updated, replying to a fan on what the status of the movie is.
During a recent post on Threads, Gunn responded to a fan to confirm that no casting for the DCU version of Batman has begun yet. When another fan asked about the status of Matt Reeves’ The Batman Part II, Gunn said the project was still being written.
When asked again on when Gunn suspected the script might be finished, Gunn simply said that it will be done whenever Reeves’ thinks it is.
Little is known about the plot of The Batman Part II so far, though Robert Pattinson is set to return as the titular Dark Knight. The first film did tease the Joker and leave the Riddler alive at Arkham, so one or both of these iconic antagonists could make a return. Just last month, DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn debunked a rumor about who the sequel’s villains could be, as well as the possible introduction of Dick Grayson/Robin.
The first film, The Batman, stars Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Paul Dano as The Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as GCPD’s James Gordon, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, Peter Sarsgaard as Gotham D.A. Gil Colson, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, and Colin Ferrell as Oswald Cobblepot/ Penguin.
