Screaming at "I think."

Three things are certain in life: death, taxes, and Matt Reeves writing The Batman Part II. I think.

 

[solidsnake86]

Realistically, I think we get an update on filming closer to the premiere of the penguin. If it's shooting early next year, typically you starting hearing things 5-6 months prior to production as things need to be booked and actors schedules must be cleared. I wouldn't be surprised if Pattinson's team got that news recently and that's why we found out he joined a few smaller projects.

Good to see the shows that are available are selling out.

The Batman 2 Gets Exciting Script & Filming Update From DC Movie's Co-Writer

What will The Batman 2 be about?

screenrant.com

Mattson Tomlin: It's shooting next year. We're gearing up, and I will say that the bar just couldn't be higher. It's the sequel to the first one. But also, Matt [Reeves] is like no other. In the five years now that I've been working with him as closely as I have, I've tried to absorb as much as humanly possible from him, and I'm so grateful for the time that I get to spend with him, because he is a true artist who is operating in a world where sometimes art doesn't get to flourish, and he's trying to make something that really matters. So to be able to just be on the ride and be part of that process, it's pretty unbelievable, pretty tremendous. I'm psyched for the movie.

Could this "We're gearing up" mean that they have started pre-production?

 

[Boom]

I've decided that Deacon Blackfire is the villain.

Jesse Plemons strikes me as too young for that role, so no, I’m afraid not.

 

[Boom]

Hush is only acceptable if it's Plemons.

Seems like there’s a good chance we get some casting news by the end of this year (assuming it’s filming early 2025*).

*I wrote 3025 by accident when I first typed it. It’s like my brain was subconsciously reminding me how slow Reeves writes lmao.

Week after Penguin finale date is when news will trickle in and the core crew will show up at CCXP.

 

[J.Drangal]

No offense, but this Screenrant article is hardly news...

Also, Screenrant.

If anything, I'm curious to see how the penguin does ratings wise. I'm all in on this series but I'll be honest, I'm not sure if this series appeals to the general audience.

Hopefully it does well enough so that they can explore other main characters, like Catwoman, in the tv series format.

So, roll call - who's going to see the 8/28 screening of The Batman?

I'm going.

 

[solidsnake86]

Unfortunately it's not being shown in Canada or else I would have liked to have gone.

I wonder if any of the press has already gotten screeners for the first few episodes of the penguin.

It's not playing anywhere near me.

I’m a little nervous as well about the ratings. Hopefully the pilot episode will be good and it will create good WOM and momentum for the rest of the episodes.

[Sawyer]

I see Reeves responding to a lot of tweets about tonight’s showing.

Gonna need that man to slip up and post a casting announcement gif.

Hmmm. Idk. I'd wait for Gunn to confirm or deny it's existence.
