Matt Reeves confirmed The Batman part 2 has been cancelled.
Could be true or not. But saw a post saying he confirmed it on tweeter. How much of it is true remains to be validated, I feel if it's being pushed to 2027 it my be a red flag WB is ruining things before it has began.WB confirms anything named "Part 2" has been cancelled.
All jokes aside it's clear Gunn is being told to bring Pattinson Batman into the DCU and Reeves is getting tired of the BS. Sooner or later we won't get The Batman 2 and WB would be left with no options.The Batman 2 is cancelled. In place will be SvB, Superman vs Batman: Dusk of Injustice.
Pattinson signed a large holding contract with Warner Bros. The situation may evolve where they pay him to either show up in Gunn's films or pay him to just not show up at all. The latter option is non viable. If Corenswet does not break through as Superman, someone will have to "anchor" the future DCEU ensemble films. Pattinson is bankable. He's proven he can be the lead in a successful tent pole production. When high level creatives do interviews and talk about how they have this grand long term sweeping "plan", it's all basically a bunch of horse &*$%. If you have enough films over time, like a decade in length, you are going to have to adapt.
Gunn's job is to deliver the impossible. Obviously Pattinson in the Gunn arc of the new DCEU is probably not ideal at this point, but sometimes you can only play the cards you are dealt. At any given point, Gunn gets a new hand of cards. Some will be self inflicted, or a byproduct of his own previous choices, some will be inflicted upon him. Either way, his job is to find a way to execute at a high level and deliver some wins. Fair or unfair has nothing to do with it.
Sometimes the cards you are dealt, there is no Win/Lose situation possible. Sometimes there's no Win/Win scenario. Sometimes you have to manage different tiers of losses you can't avoid. It's just how it works. No one loves it. No one likes the mechanics of it. And it's often not fair nor sensible, but people often don't really have a choice in the matter. If you want to survive in the industry, you need the reality, perception and reputation of being able to execute and deliver wins against all odds. These are incredibly difficult jobs, very few people can do them well, and even fewer can garner consistency in doing them well.
None of this is as easy as many people perceive it to be.
Hoping to see a new Batmobile in The Batman Part 2..........
By the time it releases, Pattinson will be chasing down thugs in a Batmobility scooter.
