DC Studios co-chief James Gunn is putting to bed one of the more popular online rumors about the upcoming “The Batman 2,” directed by Matt Reeves and once again starring Robert Pattinson as the Dark Knight. Social media has been convinced that Reeves is filming “The Batman 2″ and “The Batman 3″ back to back, alleging this is one of the reasons his sequel to 2022’s “The Batman” spent so many years in development. Not so fast.

Gunn was asked on Threads to confirm or deny the rumor about two “Batman” sequels shooting back to back, to which he bluntly answered: “I can deny.”
