“It’s Certainly Not the Plan”: James Gunn Finally Addresses Robert Pattinson’s Future as the DCU’s Batman

It’s a great time to be a fan of Kyrptonians with Superman set to fly into theaters later this year, and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, which will feature Jason Momoa’s live-action debut as Lobo, experiencing a smooth and speedy run into production start and already halfway through filming. However, things are looking darker than Gotham for Batman fans, who are still awaiting news on The Brave and the Bold, the DCU’s Batman film, and are still more than two and a half years away from The Batman Part 2 starring Robert Pattinson. There have been rumors swirling for months now about Pattinson potentially being the one to take up the mantle of Batman in the DCU, and during a recent press event at the Warner Bros. lot, Collider’s Steve Weintraub had a chance to ask James Gunn and Peter Safran if there was any credibility to this chatter.
