“When I opened the app I saw everyone was asking this. No, this is absolutely not true. We didn’t discuss or even think about a Joker series. “I am very sorry,” said the director.

Gunn added that he was busy filming and couldn’t immediately refute the rumors. He also expressed his support for Matt Reeves’ idea for a series about the Condiment King, Batman’s comedic rival from the 1992 animated series.

The Batman sequel is scheduled to be released on October 2, 2026. Reeves, who will once again take on the role of director, previously said that there would be no fantastic villains in the sequel.
