\n\tSebastian Stan is carefully talking about his mysterious role in The Batman: Part II<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s one of the most challenging situations I\u2019ve been involved in,\u201d the Captain America: The Winter Soldier actor told the Happy Sad Confused podcast<\/a> in an episode published Monday. \u201cI feel like it\u2019s hard to talk about it without it becoming some speculative thing from some corner. I think it\u2019s a very ambitious thing, and I hope it lands right. I have a lot of faith in it, because I just do feel like [director Matt Reeves] is truly a genius of our time, and one of the very few people that I think is so unique and so specific. And he has been at this for three years. I mean, it\u2019s not an accident. He knows what he\u2019s doing. And so I\u2019m just happy to be part of that vision.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI just think it\u2019s going to be great,\u201d he added. \u201cThis is definitely, for me, feeling like something very different than I\u2019ve gotten to do. And that\u2019s what I love, and I\u2019m excited about.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tStan has been rumored to play the iconic Gotham City district attorney Harvey Dent (also known as Two-Face) in the film, but that\u2019s not confirmed. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe actor also discussed how he landed the role in the first place, saying he \u201cpoked the bear\u201d by nudging DC Studios co-chief James Gunn, and didn\u2019t expect to get the part given his longtime association with the MCU. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe DC thing was honestly always sort of a kind of like a joke in my mind,\u201d he said. \u201cI was like, \u2018there\u2019s no way that I\u2019m ever going to end up [on a DC Studios film]\u2019 \u2026 [But] Matt had seen The Apprentice and really liked the film and my work in that. And then that inspired a conversation. Subsequently, around the same time, I was kind of poking the bear a bit over there with James Gunn, going, \u2018I think we should figure something out.’\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe comments come as production on The Batman: Part II in London pauses temporarily while director Matt Reeves takes some time to deal with a personal family matter. \u201cMatt has the full support of DC Studios and we look forward to continuing the journey soon,\u201d a studio spokesperson<\/a> said.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Batman: Part II stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne\/Batman. In addition to Stan, the production has also added fellow MCU veteran Scarlett Johansson in an undisclosed role. The film currently has a release date of Feb. 18, 2028.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sebastian Stan is carefully talking about his mysterious role in The Batman: Part II. \u201cIt\u2019s one of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":922000,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[49,48,75,337,2020],"class_list":["post-921999","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment","tag-movies","tag-the-batman-part-ii"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/921999","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=921999"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/921999\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/922000"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=921999"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=921999"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=921999"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
