If it stays as good as the first, all will be forgiven.

The Batman sequel is heading from Oct. 2, 2026 to Oct. 1, 2027.
What the hell is taking them so long? A 5 year gap between sequels is ridiculous.

It is longer than normal, but not far outside the norm. Most Batman film sequels are 3-4 years apart, so 5 is long, but just a bit longer.
Plus we got a fantastic Penguin show this year set in the same universe, so it feels more alive.

Part of it is certainly the current DC studio timeline. This is a separate batman from James Gunn’s, so it’s likely placed around other DC titles.

It’s not ridiculous, it’s great! Focus on quality, not quantity!

Script is still not finished

I’m ok with that. 5 years is long enough that it becomes completely new. I don’t want marvel fatigue to ruin this new Batman.

Yeah I wonder if they just don’t want The Batman to clash with the DCU movies tonally, or have its reputation ruined by them if they turn out to be bad.
However it could also be that now that they have the script they know it’ll take longer to shoot and edit than they originally thought.
