Matt Reeves says the script for The Batman Part II is being finished. The director spoke with Variety and said that he’s currently finishing up the script for the upcoming sequel to The Batman, The Batman Part II, and intends to film the movie next year.
He continued to say on the script, “It’s wonderful, except for the speed of getting something done. The thing is that for me, I feel like it’s not a choice. I always feel like I would never do it the way I’m doing it, except that that’s the only way I know how to do it. The metaphor that I use when I’m talking to my partners is that writing and filmmaking is like being in a dark room. Everything you need is in the room, but there are no lights, and you’re on hands and knees. And when something connects, you go, ‘Oh, that’s something.’”
Another huge hit for Reeves was The Penguin. We’ve heard there’s a good chance that Farrell will return in The Batman Part II, many have wondered if a second season of The Penguin is coming. Reeves previously said that “everything is on the table” when he spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about a season 2 of the series. Farrell has also said that, while he doesn’t particularly love putting on all the makeup and prosthetics to play Oz, he would be willing to return for another season.
Reeves also said that conversations are still being continued on the possibility of a second season, “Yeah, we’re talking to [showrunner] Lauren [LeFranc] about doing another season. That was a special experience,” he said. “I just feel really fortunate. These characters don’t belong to me; they belong to the world. It comes down to whether you can approach them in a way that expresses something personal.”
