Randy Orton is throwing his name into the mix for James Gunn’s DCU Batman, hinting at interest in taking on the iconic role in the upcoming reboot — especially as Gunn’s Superman gains early momentum.

But, there is also another Batman movie in the works – one that will be part of the DCU rather than an Elseworlds project like Reeves'. That movie is titled The Brave and the Bold, and it was unveiled as part of James Gunn and Peter Safran's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters announcement. Since then, though, news on the project has been scarce.

To this, Gunn's answer was a simple "two". This means that while The Batman: Part II script is finished, The Brave and the Bold script is still being worked on. Simultaneously, it is imperative to note that this interview may have taken place before Matt Reeves confirmed that the script for Part II was complete on June 28, 2025.
