The Batman Part II was recently delayed to 2027, pushing the highly anticipated sequel back another year while also confirming that it won’t release until at least five years after the original, a move DC Studios co-head James Gunn doesn’t see as too concerning.

The co-president of DC Studios cited other film franchises (such as "Alien" and "Avatar") to assuage fan concerns.

Fans were buzzing with speculation that James Gunn was struggling to cast a “middle-aged” actor as Batman, causing production delays.
