Many fans are eager for any piece of information about The Batman 2, but it seems that even the actors are in the dark. Jeffrey Wright, who portrays James Gordon in the film, recently admitted that he hasn’t seen a script for the sequel yet. In an interview with ET, Wright stated that he has seen “as much of the script as [the interviewer has] at this point.” The lack of information may be frustrating for fans, but Wright remains patient and trusting of writer-director Matt Reeves’ vision for the film.
Despite not knowing what lies ahead for his character, Wright speculates that Lt. Gordon may see a promotion in the upcoming film. He mentions being “Lt. Gordon at the end of the film, the first film,” suggesting a potential advancement in rank for the character. However, without any script details, Wright’s assumptions remain conjecture. He expresses his confidence in Reeves’ abilities and eagerly awaits the opportunity to delve back into the role when the time comes.
The Batman 2 was officially announced shortly after the release of the first film in early 2022. However, there were doubts as to whether the sequel would move forward after James Gunn took over DC Studios. Thankfully, those concerns were put to rest when Gunn confirmed that The Batman 2 is indeed on the horizon. The film is scheduled to hit theaters on October 3, 2025. It is important to note that The Batman 2 will be a DC Elseworlds film, separate from the new DC movie universe that begins with Superman: Legacy in 2025.
In the meantime, fans can look forward to The Penguin TV show, which is set to be released on Max this year. The series will feature Colin Farrell reprising his role as the iconic villain, Oswald Cobblepot. Taking place just days after the events of The Batman, the show will delve into Cobblepot’s rise within Gotham’s underworld. This spin-off promises to provide viewers with more insight into the complex and enigmatic character.
Although details about The Batman 2 remain elusive, the anticipation continues to build. Fans eagerly await the next chapter in the Dark Knight’s journey and the unfolding of Gotham’s gritty and mysterious world. While Jeffrey Wright may not have seen the script yet, his trust in Matt Reeves and his excitement for the project are a testament to the talented team behind the film. As we patiently await further updates, we can rest assured that The Batman 2 will be worth the wait.
