The Batman - Part II pushed to 2026

Earlier, we had reported that The Batman - Part II, the sequel to The Batman, helmed by Matt Reeves, would hit the theatres on October 3, 2025. However, it has now been learned that the film's release date has been postponed and is now slated for release on October 2, 2026.

It is to be noted that Robert Pattinson, who played the Caped Crusader in the 2022 film, will be returning to the role in the sequel. There is no information available yet on which other actors from the original movie will also be part of the sequel. In the first film, Zoë Kravitz starred as Catwoman, Andy Serkis played Alfred Pennyworth, Colin Farrell portrayed the villainous Penguin, and Jeffrey Wright played the character of James Gordon, the police chief of Gotham City.

It's worth noting that last year, the heads of DC Studios, James Gunn and Peter Safran, announced 10 different projects that make up the first chapter of a long-term interconnected universe of movies and shows based on DC Comics characters. On the occasion, they also confirmed that The Batman would be a trilogy.
