Despite rumors that he’d join the cast as Two-Face, Sebastian Stan has seemingly been spotted with a brand-new look while filming The Batman 2<\/a>… and now DC fans think he might be playing Victor Zsasz in the upcoming sequel.<\/p>\n

Here’s the thing: The Batman 2 is indeed currently filming, but it hasn’t been verified yet that this is a photo from July 2026 (and you can see it for yourself below). Stan shaved his head bald for Fjord, a legal thriller drama that was shot in 2025 and premiered at Cannes in May 2026. If this is a recent photo, that means Stan isn’t playing Harvey Dent aka Two-Face after all.<\/a>.. and there’s some truth to the June 2026 report from The Insneider<\/a> that claims Stan is playing sadomasochistic creepazoid Victor Zsasz, and that Brian Tyree Henry is playing Harvey Dent.<\/p>\n

Though you may not be familiar with Zsasz, we’ve already seen him three times in live-action form: Tim Booth plays a version that works as an enforcer for Carmine in Batman Begins; Anthony Carrigan played him in the TV show Gotham, and Chris Messina portrayed him as a killer-for-hire who works for Black Mask in Birds of Prey. Zsasz first appeared in Batman: Shadow of the Bat #1 back in 1992, and is known for carving a tally mark into his skin to represent each of his victims.<\/p>\n

One fan shared an alleged screenshot<\/a> from Stan’s stylist Michael Fisher, in which he seems to have posted a fan-made photo of Stan as Harvey Dent in response to the clean-shaven photo… so I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.<\/p>\n

The Batman 2 is set to hit theaters on October 1, 2027. For more, check out our list of all the upcoming DC movies and shows<\/a>.<\/p>\n
