Matt Reeves and Dylan Clark have been able to talk to The Direct about their plans forThe Batmanuniverse that started with the 2022 film. With The Penguin following up onThe Batman, talks about other ways to expand the franchise have surfaced, and there seems to be some interest in developing a particular character by allowing him to help his own show.

“…thinking certainly in the way that our conversations have gone.“
Matt Reeves has mentioned the vibe that he would like to take withThe Batmanand its wider universe, saying that the goal is always going to be to keep the narrative grounded. While fans might see the likes of Harvey Dent, The Joker, and Hush appear in the universe it is unlikely that more supernatural villains like Ra’s al Ghul, The Gentleman Ghost, and Solomon Grundy would show up in the films at all.

BeforeThe Batmancame along, there seems to have been a laser focus on The Joker in Batman’s rogues gallery, despite the Bat of Gotham having one of the most interesting sets of villains. With its focus on the Riddler, the film was able to break new ground, allowing audiences to indulge in a villain that was not plastered all over the place.
