Robert Pattinson Reveals The Batman: Part II Is 'Taking some Big Swings'

Production for The Batman: Part II starts in May 2026 after delays; the sequel will feature returning cast and new stars with a script completed in June 2025.

  • Speaking at his premiere, Robert Pattinson said The Batman: Part II is 'taking some big swings' and confirmed production begins in a couple of months, with a release set for October 1, 2027.
  • Matt Reeves, writer-director, built the project as a planned trilogy and after the 2023 Hollywood strikes finished the script last year with co-writer Mattson Tomlin under the working title 'Vengeance 2'.
  • Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright and Andy Serkis will return, Barry Keoghan's Joker cameo expands, and filming is set at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden, Liverpool, England and Glasgow, Scotland.
  • James Gunn confirmed fans won't get a Brave and the Bold update until after The Batman: Part II comes out next year and ruled out Pattinson's Batman crossing into the DC Universe.
  • Bruce Wayne will dig deeper into Gotham City's corruption, with Reeves describing the antagonist as one that 'has never really been done' in a detective story.
