Robert Pattinson Says ‘The Batman Part II’ Is To Begin Filming At The End Of 2025

EXCLUSIVE: Robert Pattinson has said that filming on Matt Reeves’ The Batman Part II is due to start at the end of 2025.

Speaking to Deadline on the London red carpet for his new movie Mickey 17, Pattinson said he couldn’t reveal plot details about the anticipated film but claimed “it’s cool, though, it’s cool”.

Pattinson acknowledged the film’s delay, noting “it’s a while…everything feels so long ago because COVID just erased three years.”

Pattinson’s confirmation comes after the film’s release date had been delayed from Oct. 2, 2026 to Oct. 1, 2027 by Warner Bros. and director Reeves told Deadline at the Golden Globes that The Batman II will start shooting at some point in 2025.

The sequel was first confirmed at CinemaCon in April 2022, with Pattinson and Reeves returning, along with Mattson Tomlin as co-writer. Pattinson, Serkis, Jeffrey Wright, and Colin Farrell are all expected to reprise their respective roles.

During a recent interview at Orlando’s fan convention MegaCon, Serkis said of the project: “I am as hungry for it as you all are. He [Matt Reeves] told me the story of The Batman 2, and I was so excited for it.”

Reeves previously told us of the film: “We’re doing something that continues where the story came from and something I hope people are really surprised by.”

Reeves’ first dark chapter in the franchise took in close to $800M for Warner Bros and garnered generally positive reviews as well as three Oscar nominations.

Pattinson is next due to shoot Christopher Nolan’s Odyssey movie.
