<p>Matt Reeves’ <em>The Batman 2</em> now has a new release date. The film will now open on October 2,&nbsp;2026 instead of its scheduled date, October 3, 2025. Reports suggest that this date change is a result of the dual Hollywood strikes that left the entire industry in a limbo, postponing all scheduled productions of films and shows worldwide.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The long gap will also ensure James Gunn’s <em>Superman</em> to hit the theatres and make its own space. Superman is slated to release theatrically on July 11, 2025. The superhero flick will be James Gunn’s first collaboration with Peter Safran’s new DC Studios. The first phase is called “Gods and Monsters”.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Batman not part of James Gunn DC Universe</strong></h2>

<p>Contrary to what movie buffs would think, Matt Reeves’ <em>Batman</em> is not a part of the James Gunn DC Universe. Notably, James Gunn has another Batman film in the making. It’s titled <em>Batman: Brave and the Bold</em>, with Andy Muschietti directing. Robert Pattinson plays Batman in Reeves’ universe. The role will be recast for Muschietti’s film.</p>

<p>Matt Reeves’ <em>The Batman </em>opened two years ago and grossed more than $772 million&nbsp;at the global box office. The film also garnered good streaming numbers on Warner Bros Discovery’s Max.</p>

<p>The sequel to Matt Reeves’ <em>The Batman</em> was first announced at CinemaCon in April 2022. In August of that year, Mattson Tomlin boarded to co-write with Reeves. In late January 2023, DC Studios bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran gave the film a title and a release date.</p>

Robert Pattinson's The Batman 2 delayed by a year

<p>One of the most-awaited films of the year, ‘The Batman’ is finally headed to theatres but director Matt Reeves is missing out on a lot courtesy COVID-19.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As The Batman saw its world premiere at the Lincoln Centre in New York, actors Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz were spotted in attendance but Matt went missing. Matt Reeves is currently suffering from COVID-19 and had to give the event a miss, sadly!</p>

<p>After the cast of the film made its way to the stage, Matt Reeves explained his absence with a heavy heart through a live video call and was heard saying, “We were taking the film around and doing the press tour. Despite being double-vaccinated and boostered, I got COVID. The good news is that I’m healthy, I’m good. But I’m not with you. It’s a great heartbreak for me because this movie means so much to me. It was a five-year journey for me and I’m really excited that we’re sharing it with you tonight.”&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/the-batman-wont-cuss-on-indian-screen-458066" hreflang="en">'The Batman' won’t cuss on Indian screen</a></p>

'The Batman' to miss its date with Russia as Hollywood decides to boycott the invader

Director Matt Reeves had to skip 'The Batman' premiere for this reason

<p>Actor Jeffrey Wright, who is set to play Commissioner Gordon in 'The Batman', has teased the Batmobile in the upcoming Matt Reeves directorial will be the "craziest and coolest thing you've ever seen".</p>

<p>The 54-year-old actor said one of the aspects of the scripts he was "really stoked" was the manner in which the vehicle in the new movie, starring Robert Pattinson in the title role, was described.</p>

<p>"It was described as this kind of retro, hyper-hemified muscle car, that was just the craziest, coolest thing you'd ever seen. And when I read that I said, 'A ha, yes'," Wright said in an episode of SirusXM's "The Jess Cagle Show".</p>

<p>He believes the new Batmobile has been created to give a special "accessibility for their Gotham". "Because what it was trying to achieve, and what it does achieve, is to create an accessibility for our Gotham, a world that is tangible and grounded in a very familiar reality. But at the same time, it's still fantastical, it's still tweaked. It's accessible," he added.</p>

<p>In March, Matt Reeves released the first look of the Batmobile. In the photos shared on social media, the armoured vehicle had red taillights, a massive exposed engine, swooping fenders, and angular brake lights.<br />
Despite appearing equipped with modern weaponry, this Batmobile harks back to the retro look of the vehicle once driven by Adam West in the original superhero series. It is a departure from the versions filmmakers Zack Snyder and Christopher Nolan used in their Batman films.</p>

And as soon as I said ‘it’s a family emergency’ he said: ‘You’re doing the Batman audition, aren’t you?’” Also read: Johnny Depp being considered to play the Joker in Robert Pattinson starrer 'The Batman' 'Twilight' heartthrob replaced Ben Affleck as the new Batman.
