Overview

  • Farrell said he has read the script for The Batman: Part II, called it “extraordinary,” and noted he has only “a little bit” to do in the film.
  • Reporting indicates the Robert Pattinson–led sequel is aiming to start filming in 2026 with a 2027 release planned.
  • Warner Bros. Television chief Channing Dungey said Matt Reeves is prioritizing the movie, and showrunner Lauren LeFranc has discussed concepts that could align with it.
  • Farrell said he is unsure a second season of The Penguin will happen and would consider returning only if a compelling idea emerges.
  • The Penguin drew strong acclaim and Emmy recognition, and coverage suggests multiple original cast members are expected to return for the sequel with other villains potentially in play.
