Rumors and speculation of a delay for The Batman Part II have been making their way around social media for quite some time. Now, there’s no need for them to continue to swirl as Warner Bros. has given the sequel to Matt Reeves‘ 2022 hit a new release date.
As part of a series of moves, The Batman Part II will now release on October 2, 2026, a full year later than originally planned.
Produced under DC Studios’ Elseworlds banner, The Batman Part II–like its predecessor and the upcoming Max streaming series, The Penguin–will not be part of the new DCU’s main continuity.
According to THR, the delay is a result of the strikes which would have put development of the film’s script, being co-written by Reeves andatt Tomlin, on hold for most of 2023.
