Scarlett Johansson is continuing her streak in big-budget film series. After recently appearing in the successful Jurassic World: Rebirth, Variety reports she’s in discussions to join Matt Reeves’s The Batman: Part II. It’s currently unknown what role she might play. The first Batman film presented a gritty, realistic world without super-powered villains, featuring characters like the Riddler and the Penguin. This might make roles like Poison Ivy unlikely. The film also hinted at Barry Keoghan’s character as the Joker, suggesting a significant part for him in the sequel. Fans are now speculating whether Johansson could play Harley Quinn, or perhaps a character similar to Nicole Kidman’s Dr. Chase Meridian from previous Batman films.
A new romantic interest could appear alongside Robert Pattinson’s Batman in the sequel. Unfortunately, Zoë Kravitz likely won’t be returning as Catwoman, which will disappoint fans of the character. The film is currently planned for release on October 1, 2027 – over five years after the first movie premiered in March 2022. Director Matt Reeves told The Hollywood Reporter this September that filming will begin in the spring, explaining the delay was due to wanting to perfect the script and make it the best it could be. He joked that he could ask Scarlett Johansson for feedback, given her experience with sequels.
