WB boss David Zaslav reveals when The Batman Part II begins filming and references James Gunn’s next Super Family script. As per Deadline,
‘A letter to Warner Bros. Discovery’s shareholders this AM has confirmed that Matt Reeves‘ The Batman Part II will finally start filming in the spring. This is for an Oct. 1, 2027 theatrical release.’
‘“James Gunn is already preparing to write the next instalment in the Super family,” he confirmed.’
‘“In film, James Gunn is busy preparing the next instalment’s of the DC super family, including Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow (2026), Clayface (2026) and the next Wonder Woman. In addition, The Batman II (2027) is preparing to begin shooting next spring, among several other projects in development. The 10-year vision for the DC universe also includes an exciting array of television projects, including The Penguin, the upcoming new season of ‘Peacemaker,’ and the debut of ‘Lanterns’ in 2026. In a precise and measured way, the DC franchise will increasingly overlay across the studio’s broader efforts: from film and TV to consumer products, games, experiences and social.” reads the shareholder note.’

Many outlets including Deadline feels Zaslav may be hinting that Gunn’s next movie is a Superman/Supergirl joint sequel. We know Gunn has confirmed it’s not a direct Superman 2 film, but that Superman is heavily involved in it.
However, Zaslav does also use Super family when referring to the DCU as a whole in his next line. Therefore, maybe its reading into things too much to say Gunn’s next film will act as a sequel to both Superman/Supergirl? I guess we’ll find out eventually.
