Gunn, however, has put these rumors to rest with a clear and definitive response, urging fans to disregard the misinformation.
Gunn’s Direct Address on Rumors
Recently on Threads, James Gunn responded to the increasing rumors about Robin’s involvement in “The Batman Part II.” The DC executive made it clear that only a select few have had access to the script. “Guys please stop believing this nonsense,” Gunn stated. He emphasized that just six individuals have read the script, which excludes the possibility of any leaked details concerning the Boy Wonder.
Continued Efforts to Quell Speculation

The studio’s strategic plans extend beyond films, integrating television projects like “The Penguin,” a new season of “Peacemaker,” and the debut of “Lanterns” in 2026. These ventures highlight a comprehensive DC universe plan, spreading across various media and ensuring fans have plenty to look forward to.
