The Batman Part II
Robert Pattinson’s Comments Underline How Far Away The Batman 2 And 3 Likely Are
The Timeline Of The DCU’s Elseworlds Movies Seems Lengthy
With Reeves heavily at work on the sequel ’s script , Robert Pattinson was demand aboutThe Batmantrilogyas a whole . Pattinson is known for his dry humor , mean his reply was intelligibly made as a jest . That said , the comment from Pattinson does highlight just how far aside the two sequels toThe Batmantruly are . When asked about how the trilogy preparation was go , Pattinson stated:“I could truly be retiring by the end of them . ”Of course , Pattinson is only 38 eld old and will obviously not be withdraw in the foreseeable future .
The Batman does one thing better than The Dark Knight , and following an exciting update , I ’m wait forward to The Batman - Part II doing the same .
withal , this caper from Pattinson is sandwich between cereal of truth . Pattinson ’s humor derive from the fact that the wait forThe Batman - Part IIand its sequel go on . The former is currently schedule for release on October 2 , 2026 , almost five years after the outlet of its predecessor on March 4 , 2022 . If the sequel hits this engagement , eyes will sour to the third movie . All we can do as hopeful fan is play along the same product timeline as the sequel , meaning I am not expectingThe Batman- Part IIIuntil 2030 at the very earliest .

James Gunn Has Confirmed The Batman Universe Isn’t Canceled But I’m Still Worried
The Sequel Is Coming, But Its Timeline & Competition Are Somewhat Worrying
Another element that has caused many - myself include , to an extent - to worry aboutThe Batmanuniverse ’s future is theupcomingBatmanmoviein growing as part of the mainline DCU . James Gunn confirmed that the DCU ’s Batman will be introduced via an adaptation of The Brave and the Bold , telling the account of Bruce Wayne and his son , Damian , as one of the Caped Crusader ’s many Robin sidekicks . The potential subconscious competition that this could engender between Gunn ’s DCU and Reeves’The Batmanfranchise is not lost on me .
Gunn at least confirmed thatThe Batman ’s sequels are not set off and if this fate were to befall them , the head of DC Studios would be the first to corroborate this word …
In November 2024,James Gunn addressedThe Batmanfranchisein this respect . While not necessarily giving acceptance to the idea of competition between the franchises , Gunn at least affirm thatThe Batman ’s subsequence are not canceled and if this fate were to befall them , the question of DC Studios would be the first to confirm this news . This is , doubtlessly , a positive polarity forThe Batmanuniverse , but the aforesaid timeline duration could still multiply some competitor between Reeves ' sequel and the DCU ’s inevitableBatmanseries .
The Batman Part II is the sequel to Matt Reeve’s The Batman, released in 2022, and will continue where the original film left off. The film shares a universe with the HBO Max original Penguin series and sees the return of the Riddler and a different incarnation of the Joker.
I’m Relieved The DC Universe Batman Movie Is Still In Development
But Still Further Away Than It Seems
I ’m more excited about the DCU ’s The Brave and the Bold than Robert Pattinson ’s The Batman - Part II because of something only the first should do .
This confirms that the DCU’sBatmanis further behind in development thanThe Batman - Part II , which itself is still some years away . Although I am beaming the DCU ’s Brave and the Bold project is still going ahead , this longer timeline subside the aforementioned trouble I had aboutThe Batman 2.All of this mean that both movies are unlikely to overlap , give Reeves ' dealership the room to breathewithout the possibility of general audience feeling like they have to choose between the two .
Why I Hope Robert Pattinson’s The Batman 3 Happens No Matter What
There Needs To Be Room For Both Franchises
Putting aside any worries I have regardingThe Batmanfranchise , the DCU’sBatmanmovies , and their likely overlap , I am under the impression thatThe Batman - Part IIIneeds to happen regardless . The reason for this links preponderantly to the obvious attractor Reeves ' world possess over not only other superhero movies butBatmanmovies in picky . One of the heavy strengths of the dealership is its grounded and gritty tone . Its portrayal of Gotham , the DC characters within the location , and the stories necessitate them provide a more realistic take than others in the genre .
Whether it be the more lightsome menu of the MCU or even the more hopeful narration thatJames Gunn’sSupermanis expected to be , The Batmanoffers a alone set of taradiddle that many other franchises do not . likewise , the DCU’sBatmanfranchise is require to contain the more fantastical elements of The Dark Knight ’s source cloth , providing a clear distinction between it and Reeves’The Batmanuniverse . This specialization makesThe Batmanseries a consummate counterpoint to so many other superhero franchises , whether they be from Marvel , DC , or otherwise .
The Batman even differentiates itself from other farinaceous dealership likeThe Dark KnightorJokerthanks to the more unrealistic , funny - al-Qur’an version of Gotham providing a perfect contrast with the serious stories being separate .
Besides the unequaled toneThe Batmanstrikes , several other surface - level elements prove that the franchise ’s third installment should happen . first of all , The Batman ’s stamp membersoffer intriguing , interesting looks at DC ’s iconic characters . The the likes of of Robert Pattinson , Zoë Kravitz , Jeffrey Wright , and Colin Farrell , to name but a few , are standouts of the franchise , and I can not wait to see how the trilogy continues their persona bow by buzz off the best out of the thespian ' great carrying into action .
Behind the camera , there is also an insane amount of talent that warrantsThe Batmantrilogy being fill in . Witwatersrand ' committal to writing give up the detective - noir vibe of the franchise to shine through , all while provide the said compelling characters and their stories . His charge is assured also and is only mate by the outstanding depiction of Gotham via the film ’s production intention and the beautiful motion-picture photography of Greig Fraser . For all of these reasons , the franchise is more than suitable of a decision , meaningThe Batman - Part IIandPart IIImust happen in the future .
