Future villains are `teased` in The Batman, Joker is not the only name 3
The Batman is not only Batman’s first solo blockbuster in the past 10 years, but also opens a new superhero universe for DC.
Because it is the opening film for a new universe revolving around Batman, it is not surprising that The Batman includes many details to pave the way for the appearance of a series of other villains in upcoming film projects.
Joker
It would be a big mistake if Joker did not appear in a Batman solo movie, as the main villain.
In the premiere, it can be seen that the Joker gradually got to know and befriended the Riddler when both were imprisoned in Arkham asylum.
Joker will almost certainly return in DC’s new cinematic universe, even though director Matt Reeves once shared that he did not want to exploit this character too hastily.
Hush
In the comics, Hush’s real name is Thomas Elliot, a childhood friend of Bruce Wayne, and also a murderer who tried to kill his parents to quickly inherit their property.
In addition, the credits of The Batman share a link to rataalada.com, the website that Riddler used to contact Bruce Wayne in the movie.
Two-Face
Gotham in The Batman is described as a city rotten by corruption.
After Colson’s death, Gotham will need a new person to take on this position, opening the door for Harvey Dent to join The Batman cinematic universe, although DC Films has not yet made any official confirmation.
Bane
During the final battle with Riddler’s supporters, Batman used a blue potion to regain his physical strength in the blink of an eye, but became more aggressive and brutal, nearly killing him.
The last time the character Bane appeared on the big screen was in The Dark Knight Rises (2012), played by Tom Hardy.
Redhood
Red Hood is Jason Todd/Robin’s new nickname after his own death in Death in the Family.
Because Jason Todd comes from the streets, this could be preparation for Robin/Red Hood to enter The Batman cinematic universe later.
Court of Owls
In the comics, the Council of Owls is a group of the oldest and richest families in Gotham, regularly using money and power to manipulate the political situation in this city for decades.
Before The Batman premiered, there was a theory that the Council of Owls were the main villains behind all the massacres in Gotham.
Penguin
In The Batman, Penguin (Colin Farrell) is not the main villain, and only appears as a rich and wealthy gangster, not really an evil person with distorted and perverted thoughts and views.
