Warner Bros. has been going through a transitional period since their merger with Discovery went through. The studio has appointed David Zaslav as the CEO of the new company and he’s been making waves for the past few months. Zaslav has canceled multiple DC Comics films like Batgirl and The Wonder Twins leaving the future of the DC Extended Universe up in the air. One franchise that seems pretty safe is the Robert Pattinson-led The Batman universe. The studio seems that they’re all in on director Matt Reeves as they have just signed him to an overall deal. Reeves has multiple projects inside of the Batman universe that he created like an HBO Max series focusing on the Penguin (Colin Farrell), a series set inside of Arkham Asylum and is helping Paul Dano out with his upcoming comic Riddler: Year One. Riddler: Year One will focus on Edward Nashton, the first year Batman was active as a vigilante. In the comic, Batman sports a very different costume and one digital artist has created a design that shows Pattinson in the costume.
