The Batman producer Dylan Clark touched on the recently released film and whether or not any future instalments will feature a time jump.

While speaking to ComicBookMovie.com, Clark said, "I think it's always about, 'Where is Bruce emotionally?' and where you want to pick up with him... We didn't want to do an origin story with this. We didn't want to see him as a Batman who had perfected his Batman ways. We wanted to see him grappling with what that meant. I think we earned the arc at the end of the day."

Clark added that while it was premature, the production team is "really focused on getting this movie seen on the big screen by as many people around the globe and they'll hopefully all say very loudly that they want more." He  concluded, "Then, all of the ideas that have been percolating in our heads - you know, 'wouldn't it be cool if…?' - we can start to put on paper and kind of land. I can't say if [the sequel] will...I suspect it would go a little bit further than Year Two."

Director and co-writer Matt Reeves previously commented on why The Batman would not retell the title character's origin, saying that it has "been done too much." Additionally, Reeves revealed that the film is more of an origin story for Batman's nemeses as opposed to one for the Caped Crusader himself.

Reeves also revealed development on a sequel for The Batman has already begun, saying, "I really believe in what we've done and I'd be excited to tell more stories. We have started talking about another movie, but, y'know, right now we'll just put it out in the world and I'll try to enjoy this."

Outside of a sequel, The Batman will also produce two spinoff series on HBO Max, one focusing on the Gotham City Police Department and  the other on Colin Farrell's Penguin. Reeves recently teased one of them will be tied to Arkham Asylum. In addition, he revealed he "talked to the HBO Max folks" about doing a Catwoman spinoff. As for other Batman villains, Reeves brought up the notion of reinventing Mr. Freeze, remarking that he "[thinks] there's actually a grounded version of [the character's] story, which could be really powerful and could be really great."

Directed and co-written by Matt Reeves, The Batman is now in theaters.
