When Does Matt Reeves’s The Batman – Part 2 Release? James Gunn’s DCU Slate Future Plans

The Batman – Part 2 will be released only in theaters on October 3, 2025. No further information regarding the plot or characters has been announced, so stay tuned for more information. However, we did hear from Gunn that DC plans to make a trilogy out of The Batman series and an HBO series called The Penguin.

All three of these latest entries in the Batman universe will see their stories and characters disconnected from the DC Universe in what is called DC Elseworlds. Robert Pattinson will return as Bruce Wayne, and Matt Reeves will direct the two films. However, in an interview with Collider, Reeves mentioned that he has a dream of how he wants his BatVerse to play out and is meeting with Gunn to ensure that his BatVerse is still in line with the DC Universe and their plans for the future.

So what does this mean for Batman in the DC Universe itself? That is yet to be determined, but Gunn has stated that they will search for a new actor to play Batman in a universe connected to everything else in the DCU. So whether you like Pattinson as Batman or not, you will only get to see him in a couple of additional projects.
