UPDATE: Though she wasn't mentioned as part of Matt Reeves' recent announcements, it looks like Hannah Khalique-Brown has joined the cast of The Batman - Part II in an undisclosed role.
Two separate professional casting websites list Alejandra de la O as Khalique-Brown's stand-in.
The British actress has appeared in the likes of Doctors, The Undeclared War, Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light, Dune: Prophecy, and Black Doves. She also had a small role in Barbie.
James Gunn has also debunked the recent "rumor" that Reeves is actually filming The Batman 2 and 3 back to back, hence the lengthy delay.
Original story follows.
As filming continues on The Batman - Part II near Leavesden Studios in the UK, these latest photos from the set reveal a distant first glimpse of the Batmobile.
It's difficult to tell if the Dark Knight's iconic car has undergone any modifications since the first film, but even if Bruce Wayne has made a few upgrades, we can't imagine they'll be anything too high-tech.
In keeping with the movie's more grounded tone, the modified vintage muscle car that was introduced in The Batman was a very different beast to the more utilitarian vehicles driven by Christian Bale's Caped Crusader in Christopher Nolan's trilogy and Ben Affleck's Bat in the DCEU.
We don't have much context for the scene being filmed/rehearsed here, but residents living around the area of Bovingdon Airfield Studios were notified about "the firing of loud blank ammunition, and a lighting rig simulating a helicopter searchlight."
Check out the photos at the links below.
A recent video showed Jeffrey Wright and Brian Tyree Henry's stand-ins on a bridge surrounded by GCPD vehicles and ambulances (we had heard that Henry, not Sebastian Stan, had been cast as Harvey Dent/Two-Face), which would seem to indicate that the Eternals star's character is working with Jim Gordon (he could also be playing Harvey Bullock, of course).
Rumors are circulating that Scarlett Johansson is set to portray a "serial killer obsessed with plants, who uses toxins to carry out her crimes" (surely Poison Ivy). Her main target is said to be Charles Dance's character, "the leader of a secret organization made up of the most powerful figures in the city" (the Court of Owls, no doubt).
If Johansson is playing a version of Pamela Isley, it may lend credence to another recent rumor that DC Studios is developing a live-action Poison Ivy series set in the same universe as The Batman movies and HBO's The Penguin.
After several previous delays, The Batman - Part II was scheduled to arrive in theaters on October 1, 2027, but was recently pushed back to February 18, 2028.
