- Gunn has also reconfirmed that The Batman II part has not been canceled
James Gunn has provided exciting – and slightly disturbing – updates of the next two films from Batman.
Addressing Rolling Stone, the co-chief of DC Studios said he could have found a “way” to finally get The courageous and the fatScript in progress. This film, which is part of its DC Universe (DCU) by Peter Safran, is one of the largest creative priorities in the company.
It is not the only developing film in development. Long length of Matt Reeves The Batman II partWhich is expected to arrive in October 2027, Gunn has reconfirmed. However, other comments he made to Rolling Stone about this adjacent to DCU film did not give a clarity on a persistent question that DC fans have on this franchise led by Robert Pattinson.
But let’s start with what Gunn had to say The courageous and the fat. Announced as part of the initial programming of the Chapter of the DCU One in January 2023, this film, inspired by the graphic novel by Frank Morrison, was a nut that is difficult to crack for Gunn and Company. Now, however, he looks like Gunn and the writer to announce the film have made a breakthrough on the narration’s striker.
“Batman must have a reason to exist, right?” Said Gunn. “Batman cannot be” Oh, we make a Batman film because Batman is the greatest character in all the Bru of Warner “, what he is … So we are dealing with this.
“I think I have a path, moreover,” added Gunn. “I think I really know what it is – I’m just with the writer to make sure we can make it a reality.”
It will take a while before Batman made his debut in DCU – after all, Gunn and the anonymous scribe, the only talent attached to the project is Andy Muschietti (The flash,, He), as director of the film of the Chapter of the DCU. Nevertheless, I am happy to learn that there was a certain movement on one of the most exciting DCU movies and television programs in the DC Studios file.
The problem of the two Batman
Okay, but what about BatmanThe continuation of films? Here is what Gunn said about the follow -up of the first entry of the Batman epic crime saga: “[The] Batman Part II is not canceled. This is the other that I hear all the time – that The Batman II part is canceled. This is not the case. We have no script. Mast [Reeves] is slow. Let him take his time. Let him do what he does. God, people are mean. Let him do his thing, guy. “”
This is excellent news! Well, until you start to consider the broader implications to have two different Batman projects on the go and comments Gunn on the distinction of the other.
With regard to the latter, Gunn stressed that the Cup Crusader of the DCU must be distinct enough to separate him from the grainy universe, anchored and almost realistic that Reeves co-created. However, this does not mean that we should expect the iteration of the DCU to channel the flamboyance of the era of the 90s of Batman films or the Slapstick nature of the television show with Adam Scott of the 60s.

Comment from R / DC_CINEMATIC
And this is where the first problem lies: how will Gunn and Company differentiate their black knight from that of Reeves-Verse? You can incorporate the fantastic elements of Batman literature, but there is a fine line to trace between extraordinary and useful realism that the best films, programs and comics of Batman contain.
The simplest solution – according to some fans, anyway – would be to merge the payment of Reeves with the DCU and install Bruce Wayne de Pattinson as a billionaire vigilante. It is a subject of conversation that dominates online and in person discussions for months, so much so, that it appeared during the last big update of the DCU Gunn and Safran gave in February.
Although Gunn and Reeves have discussed such a possibility, they have always played suggestions that this will ever happen. Gunn did it again during his conversation with Rolling Stone – “It’s not probably at all,” said Gunn. However, this quote, associated with another – “I would never say zero, because you never know” – I have not exactly closed the door on Pattinson becoming the crushed crusader of the DCU.
Will I think it will happen? No. If it was going, it would have done now. Whenever Gunn and / or Reeves leave the door hindered on it, however, this only rekindles the perpetual debate on the question of whether it should be done or not. So here I am, MM, MM. Gunn, Safran and Reeves: clarify this once and for all by excluding a fusion of the DCU and the Reeves-Verse. Do it and we (including you three!) Can all continue our life without having to read more on this already tedious discussion.
