Matt Reeves, director of The Batman and who will also direct its sequel, The Batman 2, confirmed the reasons why this film suffered a delay until 2027. That was in some interviews they did with him on the red carpet at the Golden Globes .
When asked about it he replied ‘because we are still finishing the script, and a lot of things have been happening.’ This response from Reeves makes all the sense in the world.
James Gunn, who is supervising The Batman 2 — although it is not part of his cinematic universe — stated a few days ago that this filmmaker was still working on the script. So Matt Reeves’ statements corroborate what he said.

The director went on to say ‘next year is mainly about starting production and getting the movie up and running, and we’re very excited about it.’ It should be noted that his words were recorded by The Hollywood Reporter.

But when talking about The Batman 2 to Deadline he said ‘I can tell you that we’re going to film this year, and we’re excited about it.’ So it is not clear if production will be in 2025 or 2026, although it is likely that everything depends on the script being ready.
Reeves still stated ‘we’re going to do something that absolutely continues the story, but I hope it surprises people.’ That sounds pretty promising.
Prior to Matt Reeves and James Gunn’s comments, information emerged that the delay of The Batman 2 was related to a heavy investment in special effects. There is no mention of it in Reeves’ comments, and if there is no script then the source of such speculation is unclear.

According to schedule, this film will have its premiere on October 1, 2027 and we hope there are no more last-minute changes. Originally its premiere would have been long before.
