The Batmanstar Andy Serkis has an update on filming for the DC movie’s sequel – and we now know when production is due to kick off.
“Basically, I know nothing about the movie other than that I’ve just found out that we’re probably likely to be starting filming early next year,” the actor, who plays Alfred Pennyworth, said during an appearance at this year’s ACE Superhero Comic Con (viaPopverse).
Alongside Serkis' Pennyworth and Pattinson’s Caped Crusader, The Batman also starred Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman, Paul Dano as the Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as James Gordon, and Colin Farrell as Penguin. Set during Bruce Wayne’s second year of fighting crime, The Batman follows his attempts to track down the Riddler, a serial killer targeting the elite of Gotham.
The sequel won’t be part ofJames Gunn’s rebootedDCU Chapter One, however. He and Peter Safran are cooking up another, separate Batman and Robin movie, The Brave and the Bold, fromThe Flashdirector Andy Muschietti.
