While it’s not yet known which villains will appear in The Batman 2 – save for the return of Colin Farrell’s Penguin, but more on that in a bit – the makeup designer who brought both Penguin and Barry Keoghan’s Joker to the big screen in The Batman shared his thoughts with IGN about how realistic versions of “weird” characters like Clayface or Two-Face could be brought to life within Matt Reeves’ Batman Epic Crime Saga.

Matt Reeves explained why Robert Pattinson, who played Batman in the same world, doesn't appear. "The Penguin" is the second project set within Matt Reeves' grim, violent take on the DC universe, following 2022's " The Batman " which starred Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne and Batman.

The Batman director Matt Reeves has confirmed that he still intends to complete his trilogy, while also touching on - but not naming - the sequel's villain.
