After months of rumors, speculation and non-sensical bullshit, the sequel to Matt Reeves 2022 The Batman finally has been given an official update.
In a letter to Warner Bros. Discovery’s shareholders, CEO David Zaslav revealed that “The Batman II’ (2027) is preparing to begin shooting next spring,” finally providing some good news about the highly-anticipated sequel, which is slated for an October 1, 2027 release.
In film, James Gunn is busy preparing the next installments of the DC super family, including Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2026), Clayface (2026) and the next Wonder Woman. In addition, The Batman II (2027) is preparing to begin shooting next spring, among several other projects in development. The 10-year vision for the DC universe also includes an exciting array of television projects, including The Penguin, the upcoming new season of ‘Peacemaker,’ and the debut of ‘Lanterns’ in 2026. In a precise and measured way, the DC franchise will increasingly overlay across the studio’s broader efforts: from film and TV to consumer products, games, experiences and social.
