Robert Pattinson's Batman and Bruce Wayne looking shocked in The Batman

DC has recast the secret main villain of The Batman two years after the movie was released for The Penguin. There are many moving parts right now as the new DC Studios led by James Gunn and Peter Safran starts to build the next decade of stories. Those will be mostly focused on the duo's plans for the new DC Universe, which replaces the old DCEU and begins this December with the animated Creature Commandos.

While the movie does not confirm it, the leading theory is that Carmine Falcone ordered the deaths of Thomas and Martha Wayne after Bruce's father had plans to confess what transpired with the killing of the journalist Edward Elliot. "Well, practically, John was just unavailable to us. He had scheduling conflicts, and we couldn't make it work, but honestly, I'm so thrilled that we brought Mark Strong on. I think he's really good. Even though, maybe in the beginning when you first meet him, you might think, 'Oh Well, for fans of The Batman, obviously I'm so used to John Turturro,' but I feel like the gravitas that Mark brings, it's different.
