ICYMI: Robert Pattinson's 'Batman 2' Is Coming Out Way Later Than You Thought

Fans of Robert Pattinson's version of the Caped Crusader will have to wait even longer than previously expected for a sequel to the 2022 hit The Batman. Turns out, that The Batman: Part II, originally expected to be released in 2026, has now been pushed back a whole year. The new release date is Oct. 1, 2027.

But why? Recently, DCU boss James Gunn confirmed on his Threads account what some fans and insiders already knew: The script for The Batman: Part II has yet to be completed, which means filming is still a long way away.
