James Gunn Debunks The Batman 2 Villain Rumors

Not too much is known about the upcoming The Batman: Part II, but DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn did recently debunk a handful of rumors about what villains would be involved in the film.

In a response to a post on the social media platform Threads, Gunn said that a story going around that said Professor Pyg and Scarecrow would be joining Clayface, Hush, and Dick Grayson in The Batman: Part II was “totally made up.”

While rumors of Clayface and Hush — two iconic villains in the Batman comics — appearing in the film have been around for nearly a year now, this is the first time that Gunn has responded to rumors about other villains.

It is worth nothing, however, that when asked about which characters would be “a dream to incorporate in the world of The Batman” in March 2022, director Matt Reeves said, via Twitter Movies, “I think Hush is a really interesting one to do. I’ll choose Hush. That doesn’t mean the next one will be Hush.”

What do we know about The Batman: Part II?

Little is known about the plot of The Batman: Part II so far, though Robert Pattinson is set to return as the titular Dark Knight. The first film did tease the Joker and leave the Riddler alive at Arkham, so one or both of these iconic antagonists could make a return.

The first film, The Batman, stars Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Paul Dano as The Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as GCPD’s James Gordon, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, Peter Sarsgaard as Gotham D.A. Gil Colson, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, and Colin Ferrell as Oswald Cobblepot/ Penguin.
