The Batman Part II filming kicks off in London

Director Matt Reeves announced that production on "The Batman: Part II" has officially begun, sharing a set photograph that shows a dark, morgue‑like environment and a bat‑marked cue stick. The image, posted to his Instagram on June 12, confirms that shooting is underway after earlier delays caused by script rewrites and Hollywood strikes.

The sequel, starring Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/Batman, resumed filming in London and is slated for release on October 1, 2027. The cast returns include Colin Farrell as the Penguin, Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon, and Andy Serkis as Alfred, with new additions such as Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan (Harvey Dent). The production aims for a gritty, noir tone that expands Gotham’s criminal underworld.
