James Gunn recently addressed and debunked the circulating rumors about a video game being developed based on The Batman movie directed by Matt Reeves. Fans were excited by the speculation that Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment might be working on a game tied to the 2022 film starring Robert Pattinson. However, James Gunn, who is now the co-CEO of DC Studios, stepped in to clarify the situation.
Gunn took to social media to dispel these rumors, stating that there was “no truth” to the claims. His statement effectively threw cold water on the hopes of many who were looking forward to a game set in the dark and gritty world of The Batman. This revelation has quelled the buzz, confirming that there is no such game currently in development.
For now, fans will need to wait for any official announcements regarding future Batman-related video games, as this particular rumor has been firmly debunked by one of the top figures at DC Studios.
While the rumors of a video game set in The Batman universe have been debunked, fans of Robert Pattinson’s portrayal of the Dark Knight can still look forward to more content from this dark, gritty world. A sequel show titled The Penguin is scheduled to premiere on September 19, 2024, providing a deeper look into the criminal underworld of Gotham City.
Additionally, The Batman – Part 2 is set to hit theaters on October 2, 2026, though specific details about the film are still scarce. The original movie, directed by Matt Reeves, received widespread acclaim for its violent, thrilling, and darkly beautiful take on the iconic superhero, earning a 10/10 review for its justified place in the Batman franchise canon.
These upcoming projects will continue to expand on the bleak superhero world established by Reeves and Pattinson, even if a video game isn’t currently in the works.
