'The Batman Part II' Pushed Back Again To February 2028, Matt Reeves Shares First Footage
- Warner Bros. announced today that director Matt Reeves' The Batman: Part II will move from October 1, 2027 to February 18, 2028, representing a four-month delay from the previously planned release date.
- J.J. Abrams' sci-fi fantasy The Great Beyond shifted to October 1, 2027 after requiring additional editing time and 70MM Imax prints following a test screening at Regal Irvine, displacing Reeves' film from that slot.
- The Batman: Part II will now debut on the 4-day Presidents Day holiday weekend, where superhero films like Black Panther and Captain America: Brave New World have opened, with Robert Pattinson returning as Batman alongside Andy Serkis and Colin Farrell.
- Sam Esmail's Panic Carefully moves to April 9, 2027 in Imax format, while New Line's Revenge of La Llorona takes February 26, 2027, creating new competitive matchups against Paramount and Sony releases on those dates.
- The delay unfolds amid a pending Paramount acquisition of 103-year-old Warner Bros., complicated by antitrust lawsuits from California, New York and ten other states, as The Batman: Part II now arrives nearly 6 years after the original 2022 film.
