Set videos emerging from the production of The Batman: Part 2 show the Batmobile engaged in intense confrontations with Gotham City Police and SWAT teams. The footage, captured on the film's Glasgow, Scotland, set, reveals the Batmobile performing evasive maneuvers and being targeted by law enforcement.
Multiple clips circulating on social media depict the Batmobile in action, including scenes of it doing donuts on simulated snowy streets, pursued by police cruisers. Further videos show the Gotham City Police Department surrounding the vehicle and SWAT officers opening fire at close range. One sequence even features a SWAT vehicle ramming the Batmobile.
These events suggest a significant shift in the relationship between Batman and the GCPD, a stark contrast to the tentative alliance depicted at the end of the first film. Director Matt Reeves' The Batman concluded with the Caped Crusader and Lt. Jim Gordon working together, with public perception of Batman beginning to turn in his favor after he thwarted the Riddler's plans. The new set videos imply this partnership has deteriorated, with the police now treating Batman as an outlaw.
Details regarding the plot of The Batman: Part 2 remain scarce. Speculation abounds regarding potential new characters, with unsubstantiated rumors linking Sebastian Stan to the role of Harvey Dent and confirming Colin Farrell's Penguin will appear in a limited capacity. The wintry aesthetic of the set has also fueled fan theories about the involvement of Mister Freeze.
The Batman: Part 2 is currently scheduled for release on February 18, 2028.
