[emielaen]

i didn't see the news until now and i checked the Vanity Fair article and there's nothing there. but.... it was there. they deleted this.

in the initial version of the article -> when asked about Joker in The Batman: Part II, Barry said "At this point, it’s turning into the worst kept secret."

they ****ed up lol

 

[antsman41]

As if he wasn't going to be in it at some compacity.

 

[antsman41]

Also, possible Wayne hair alert...



...he's always wearing hats when running errands.

Wait what?

 

[WayneMB]

Wait what?

I was confused by this part of your post.

The Vanity Fair interview was hardly a confirmation. Not saying Keoghan's not showing up, but people are jumping the gun on this methinks.

i'd be inclined to agree BUT "the worst kept secret" quote and then it being removed makes me think they just ****ed up and confirmed it

It's a shame nobody was able to screenshot that. I didn't catch it.

Ohhhhh that's that good stuff, right there.

 

[SwordOfMorning]

It would legitimately blow my mind if Barry wasn’t a massive role in Part II. I even think people underestimate the chances of him being the big bad.

I'm starting to get really worried, Zaslav didn't even mention The Batman II on today's call, the film that supposedly will start filming in the summer.

 

[antsman41]

 

[emc5466]

Zaslav spent a lot of time talking about James Gunn, Peter Safran and the DCU. Zero mention of The Batman 2.

Hmmmmm…

 

[solidsnake86]

I am assuming this was the investors call, if so it makes sense. He is talking about the outlook of the company and the DCU is something that could point to growth. Talking about the batman right now wouldn't make sense as it's not part of the larger plan. In fact, I would be questioning why this batman iteration isn't part of the universe (taking off your fan hat and putting on your business one).

 

[Erik Lensherr]

Relax guys

Idk, this is presumably one of their big movies for next year, a sequel to one of the studio's biggest recent hits and will supposedly start filming in the summer, it's weird that it's not even mentioned, Zaslav even mentions the Supergirl WOT movie that will theoretically come after The Batman II, so it's definitely concerning.

 

[Boom]

It is extremely curious that this didn't even get a namedrop. Even in passing.

 

[Sawyer]

I don’t have the energy for self-inflicted panic, so instead…



Matt, pay this man in Gordita Crunches, I beg of you.

 

[TheGDBatman]

Was Joker 2 mentioned at all? If not then I'd be inclined to think that he chose to highlight the DCU specifically, as opposed to the Elseworlds products. And if he did it then my brain might start spiraling with conspiracy theories.
