- Gunn also reconfirmed that Batman II part has not been canceled
James Gunn has provided some exciting, and slightly worrying updates, about the next two Batman films.
Talking to Rolling Stone, DC Studios’s co -presidency said he could have found a “way of entering” to finally obtain The brave and the boldScript in operation. That film, which is part of its restart DC Universe (DCU) restarted by Peter Safran (DCU), is one of the company’s main creative priorities.
It is not the only Batman film in development. Matt Reeves’ Gesting Batman II partThat he is currently scheduled to arrive in October 2027, he is also advancing, Gunn reconfirmed. However, other comments made to Rolling Stone about this DCU adjacent film did not provide clarity about a persistent question that DC fans have about this franchise led by Robert Pattinson.
But let’s start with what Gunn had to say about The brave and the bold. Announced as part of the initial line of Chapter one of DCU in January 2023, this film, inspired by the homonym of Frank Morrison’s graphic novel, has been a difficult nut for Gunn and Company. Now, however, it sounds like Gunn and the writer who still not announced the film has made a breakthrough in the front of the storytelling.
“Batman has to have a reason to exist, right?” Gunn said. “Batman cannot simply be ‘Oh, we are making a Batman movie because Batman is the biggest character of all Warner Bros.’, which is … then, we are dealing with that.
“I think I have a path, by the way,” Gunn added. “I think I really know what it is: I’m just dealing with the writer to make sure we can make it come true.”
It will spend time before Batman makes his debut in DCU, after all, Gunn and the scribe without name, the only talent attached to the project is Andy Muschietti (The flash, He), As director of the DCU chapter one film. However, I am glad to know that there has been some movement in one of the most exciting DCU films and television programs in the DC Studios DCKet.
The two Batman’s problem
Well, but what happens The BatmanThe sequel to the movie? This is what Gunn said about the follow -up of the first entrance of the Batman Crime Saga: “[The] Batman Part II Do not cancel. That is the other thing that I hear all the time, that Batman II part It is canceled. That is not. We don’t have a script. Mate [Reeves] It is slow. Let your time take. Let me do what you are doing. God, people are bad. Let him do his own, man. “
That is great news! Well, until you begin to consider the broader implications of having two different Batman projects on the march and the comments have made Gunn make about distinguishing one from the other.
With regard to the latter, Gunn has emphasized that the DCU layer has to be different enough to separate it from the sandy, grounded and almost realistic universes that Reeves has created. However, that does not mean that we should expect the iteration of the DCU Canalize the extravagance of the era of the 90s of the Batman films or the nature of Slastick of the television program starring Adam Scott of the 60s.

R/DC_Cinematic Comment
And therein lies the first problem: how will Gunn and Company differentiate their dark-live reeves? You could incorporate the fantastic elements of Batman’s literature, but there is a very fine line that must be drawn between extraordinary and determined realism that Batman’s best films, shows and comics contain.
Anyway, the easiest solution, according to some fans, would be to merge the reeves-tesselves with the DCU and install Bruceson de Pattinson as the multi-millionaire of the latter. It is a conversation issue that is dominated online and discussions in person for months, both, in fact, that arose during the last great update of DCU, Gunn and Safran gave in February.
While Gunn and Reeves have discussed such possibility, they have always made suggestions that it will ever happen. Gunn did it again during his conversation with Rolling Stone: “It’s not probable at all,” Gunn said. However, that appointment, along with another, “would never say zero, because it is never known,” has not closed Pattinson’s door becoming the Crucado with DCU layer.
Do I think that will happen? No. If it were, I would have done it. However, every time Gunn and/or Reeves leave the door, however, only the perpetual debate about whether or not should be done. So, here I am, Mrsss Gunn, Safran and Reeves: Clarify this once and for all discarding a fusion of the DCU and Reeves-Verse. Do it and we (including you three!) We can continue with our lives without having to read more about this already exhausting discussion.
