In the sequel to Batman Part II, Robert Pattinson returns to embody The Dark Knight, reprising his role from the lauded 2022 rendition, The Batman. Likewise, Jeffrey Wright reprises the role of the esteemed Jim Gordon, weaving a thread of continuity through the tale. Additionally, the potential lingers for Zoë Kravitz, Andy Serkis, and Paul Dano to breathe life into their characters again, adding depth to the cinematic canvas. Of particular note is Barry Keoghan’s portrayal of the Joker, whose narrative arc may ascend, teased by hints of involvement with the mysterious Court of Owls. Amidst the swirling rumors of casting decisions, speculation swirls around Boyd Holbrook’s rumored negotiations with Warner Bros. for the role of Harvey Dent, AKA Two-Face, heightening the intrigue surrounding the unfolding narrative.
Batman Part II is the follow-up to the Batman film 2022, announced at CinemaCon in 2022 shortly after the first movie’s release. Originally scheduled to hit theaters in October 2025, its premiere has been pushed back to October 2, 2026. Notably, director Matt Reeves’ Batman films are considered separate from the main DC Universe storyline overseen by DC Studios’ co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran, falling under the category of DC Elseworlds projects.
