![Matt Reeves Reveals When The Batman Sequel Starts Filming [Exclusive]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/45YjstZ9yk4/hqdefault.jpg "Matt Reeves Reveals When The Batman Sequel Starts Filming [Exclusive]
It’s been over two years since Matt Reeves breathed new life into DC’s cinematic universe with 2022’s The Batman. For his movie, Reeves cast Robert Pattinson (Good Time) as the caped crusader and really leaned into the darker side of not only the titular hero but also the city of Gotham. In return, Reeves was met with an overly positive response from fans and critics, who appreciated his gritty take on the world of Batman, which gave the characters plenty of depth and put much more on the line. From the movie’s early days of production, Reeves made it clear that he was paving the way for what would eventually become a trilogy of films. After James Gunn and Peter Safran took over DC Studios at the tail end of 2022, fans were worried that Reeves’s plans would be scrapped, but they were quickly assured this wouldn’t be the case and that a sequel was still on the way.
Now, thanks to a conversation between Collider’s Steve Weintraub and Reeves, we have a better idea of where the filmmaker and his co-scribe, Mattson Tomlin, are with the project.
“We are finishing up, Mattson and I are at it every day. We’re getting very close. We’ve given big portions of it to DC already and they’ve read it. They’re super excited, and we’re trying to get — we want to be able to gear up early next year and shoot the movie next year. We’re excited about it. We’re getting close. It’s very exciting.”
All of this sounds super promising for those who have been waiting patiently to uncover the next chapter in The Batman saga, with Reeves adding that cameras will pick up “sometime in the first half of next year.” In addition to the filming updates, the director also cemented the movie’s title. Confirming the short but to-the-point name, Reeves said, “Yeah. It’s called The Batman Part II.
