Since this is pertaining to The Batman, and Robert Pattinson\u2019s take on the Dark Knight is of the emo persuasion, we\u2019ll go bad news up front: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.empireonline.com\/movies\/news\/the-batman-part-ii-director-matt-reeves-confirms-sebastian-stan-and-scarlett-johansson-casting\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Batman Part II<\/a> has been delayed <a href=\"https:\/\/www.empireonline.com\/movies\/news\/the-batman-part-2-pushed-back-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">again<\/a>. Since <a href=\"https:\/\/www.empireonline.com\/movies\/reviews\/the-batman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Batman<\/a> \u2013 director Matt Reeves\u2019 first foray into the DC universe \u2013 was released all the way back in 2022, fans are waiting an almightily long time for his follow up. (At least we had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.empireonline.com\/tv\/reviews\/the-penguin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">The Penguin<\/a> series in the meantime, in 2024.) With shooting on the sequel underway, Part II was finally slated for an October 2027 release. But now it\u2019s been pushed back again, after <a href=\"https:\/\/www.empireonline.com\/movies\/news\/matt-reeves-finally-completes-the-batman-part-ii-script-for-dc-studios\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">several previous hold-ups<\/a>, now due to arrive in February 2028.<\/p>\n<p>Still, as we said, there\u2019s good news too. News of the updated release window comes alongside a short camera test teaser video, showing Pattinson back in the Bat cowl. It\u2019s a moody 30-ish seconds, depicting Batman standing in the darkness of a snowy Gotham \u2013 as police cars with wailing sirens drive towards him. And while it\u2019s just a glimpse, it\u2019s a tantalising one \u2013 especially when combined with Michael Giaccino\u2019s two-note musical refrain.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s hoping The Batman Part II will be worth the six year wait. We\u2019ll find out exactly what R-Battz is up against this time when The Batman Part II arrives on February 18 2028.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Do you want the good news or the bad news first?
