The Batman was one of the many upcoming films that had to halt production due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak. Now, director Matt Reeves has offered a status update on the crew's health, as well as the film's production.

"Yes, we have shut down till it is safe for us all to resume..." Reeves said to a fan asking if production had indeed ceased. "Everyone safe for the moment, thank you for asking, and stay safe too..."

Other upcoming film and television show productions that have experienced delays due to coronavirus include Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier and Wandavision, among many more. Coronavirus has also caused the indefinite delay of a number of theatrical releases, including Black Widow, Mulan and The New Mutants.

In the United States alone, there have been more than 68,000 cases of people infected with coronavirus, with a death toll just shy of 1,000. The World Health Organization is urging everyone to frequently wash their hands and to stay home if possible.

With Ben Affleck having stepped down from the role of Bruce Wayne/Batman, Reeves' film will instead focus on a younger version of the Caped Crusader. The Batman is set to feature a cavalcade of the Dark Knight's rogues, including The Riddler, Catwoman The Penguin and Carmine Falcone.
