The Batman premiered in 2021 after several delays, and its sequel, The Batman Part II, immediately began facing similar issues. As we approach The Batman’s fourth anniversary, we know the script for Part II is written and its stars have sung writer/director Matt Reeves’ praises, but that’s about it: there are still no clues about what the plot will be, or even what villain Batman will be facing off against. But we finally have one intriguing clue as to who Bruce Wayne will battle in this upcoming sequel. It’s not a clue as to who it could be, but a definite statement on who it’s not.
In a red carpet interview with Josh Horowitz, Reeves discussed The Batman Part II’s writing process and teased the movie’s villain. “I won't tell you where we ended up, but we're super excited about it,” he said. “And I will say it's never really been done in a movie before. So we're excited.”
