Matt Reeves’ follow-up to “The Batman” has been pushed back until 2027. The sequel was originally supposed to open on October 2, 2026, but will now shift a year and open on October 1, 2027, in Imax.
That left an opening for Alejandro G. Iñárritu and Tom Cruise‘s upcoming film to hit theaters in 2026. The film, which still lacks a title, will open in Imax on Oct. 2 in the date “The Batman 2” vacated.
Warner Bros. made some additional tweaks to its upcoming release slate :
Bong Joon Ho’s “Mickey 17” which stars Robert Pattinson will open on March 7, 2025, while
“Sinners,” which re-teams Coogler with Michael B. Jordan, will shift back to April 18, 2025.
“The Batman” debuted in 2022 just as the movie business was shaking off the impact of COVID closures.
