Talking about ‘Batman’, Variety reports that Pattinson and Reeves will continue to explore their version of Batman in the ‘DC Elseworlds’ sidebar while Gunn and Safran will cast a new Batman in the DC Universe.
The two declared that a Batman and Robin film, based on ‘The Brave and the Bold’ comics, will be a part of the DC Universe. Reeves is preparing to begin filming ‘The Batman Part II’ as well as a spinoff series focusing on Colin Farrell’s character, the Penguin. (ANI)
