The Batman will return… in 2028. Warner Bros has officially announced the brand new release date for The Batman: Part II – it’s now set to hit theaters February 2028 in two years from now<\/a>. Filming just started recently and to celebrate the announcement & new date, director Matt Reeves posted<\/a> a clip from a camera test featuring Robert Pattinson back in the cape & cowl & mask as The Batman. This is not a teaser, this is not a trailer, this isn’t even official footage \u2013 it’s just some footage they shot during a camera test to figure out the look & style & lighting. The Batman: Part II is shot by cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt (of Mank, Devotion, The Killer, Ferrari, The Dog Stars<\/a>, The Adventures of Cliff Booth<\/a>) taking over for Greig Fraser from the first film. It’s set in the snowy winter following the flooding of the first movie – other details are still under wraps. Aside from Pattinson returning as Bruce Wayne \/ Batman, the other confirmed cast so far: Jeffrey Wright, Colin Farrell, Sebastian Stan as Harvey Dent, Scarlett Johansson, Charles Dance, Andy Serkis, & Jayme Lawson back as Bella Re\u00e1l. I can’t wait to see an actual teaser eventually.<\/p>\n

Set during the winter after the flooding of Gotham City from the first The Batman movie, Bruce Wayne \/ Batman (starring Robert Pattinson) investigates another case that further explores the corruption and division within the city.
