For some reason I am unable to update the previous Film News post for The Odyssey, so I will provide future updates here (as well as updating the dedicated Film Page).
20 June 2025
According to World of Reel we may be seeing a teaser some time in July:
“I’m told a teaser for “The Odyssey” is ready, one narrated by Anna Hathaway, and could potentially release in July, tied to screenings of “Jurassic World: Rebirth.” Don’t expect much footage, it’ll be edited in the same minimalist vein as the last few Nolan teasers.”
Production is currently in Iceland and then heading to Ireland in July with London to follow.

Rolling Stone spoke with James Gunn in relation to Superman, but this is what he had to say about Rob and Batman II:
You once said that the fact that Robert Pattinson’s Batman is not in this universe was Matt Reeves’ choice. Does that mean if it were up to you, you would’ve just pulled that into your universe?
It would be a consideration. We’d have to think about it. We’d have to think about it. It is not like we’ve never discussed it.
…
I really should clear this up. Is there still a non-zero chance that Matt Reeves’ Batman will get sucked into your universe?
[Long pause.] I would never say zero, because you just never know. But it’s not likely. It’s not likely at all. I’ll also say Batman Part II is not canceled. That’s the other thing I hear all the time — that Batman Part II is canceled. It’s not canceled. We don’t have a script. Matt’s slow. Let him take his time. Let him do what he’s doing. God, people are mean. Let him do his thing, man.”

As of 12.01 am 14 July 2023, all SAG-AFTRA members are on strike – this includes Rob as a member. Actors are asked to leave their sets and not do any promotional work:
- Members must not cross SAG-AFTRA picket lines, subject to the exceptions outlined in
SAG-AFTRA’s Notice Regarding Non-Struck Work.
- Members must instruct their agent and/or other representatives to discontinue
conducting negotiations on their behalf with the studios, streamers and networks for
covered services
This will no doubt affect the start date for filming Average Height, Average Build and possibly the release of Mickey17. Given that Matt Reeves had already joined the writer’s strike, I can’t imagine Batman 2 will be on track with filming schedules later this year. I will keep you updated as soon as more information comes to light.
Update: 18 April 2022
WHAT TIME DOES THE BATMAN COME OUT ON HBO MAX?
The Batman will begin streaming on HBO Max on Monday, April 18 at 12:01 a.m PT or 3:01 a.m. ET. If the clock strikes midnight on the west coast and you don’t yet see The Batman on HBO Max, try refreshing the page, or logging out and logging back in again.
WHERE ELSE CAN I WATCH THE BATMAN?
If you don’t have an HBO Max subscription, then, beginning on April 18, you can buy The Batman on digital via something Warner Bros. is calling “early Premium Digital Ownership,” which basically means you’ll have to pay extra. The Batman will cost $29.99 to buy, and $24.99 to rent for 48 hours, on digital platforms like Amazon Prime, iTunes, Vudu, and Google Play.
In addition, The Batman will be available on 4K, Blu-ray, and DVD on May 24, 2022. Now go get some vengeance!

According to One Take News if you are expecting to sit through the end credits for a post credit scene (as has been typical on previous superhero films), then you might be surprised:
One Take News has learned that The Batman will NOT have any post credit scenes at the end of the film. However, that doesn’t mean you should leave the theatre when it’s done. We’ve heard while there isn’t a credit scene, there is something that you might want to stick around for. We don’t know what it is specifically, but we’ve heard it’s something along the lines of a small easter egg for the fans.
I must say, hearing the film doesn’t have any credit scenes definitely caught me off guard. With all the rumors of who is in the movie and all the surprises planned, I expected one credit scene but honestly, I’m more than fine with no credit scene. We already know that the main stars are signed on for a trilogy so having a sequel be set up in a credit scene seems unnecessary.
