A VFX member on The Batman says the likes of Mr. Freeze, Killer Croc and Poison Ivy could also be too far-fetched for villains in the sequel.

Wanna understand how I obtained these scales? Those on the lookout for a few of the extra colourful Batman villains from his stacked rogues gallery is likely to be disillusioned to study that the likes of Killer Croc, Mr. Freeze and Poison Ivy could by no means be featured in the universe constructed across the Batman film reboots. So what does that spell for the way forward for our favourite Bat-baddies?

According to Casey Pyke, who did visualizations on The Batman, whereas the over-the-top nature of Riddler (Paul Dano) and Penguin (Colin Farrell) was suitably tailored for the darker, brooding tone of 2022’s The Batman, there simply is likely to be “something in the way” that retains a few of the extra elaborate villains off the display screen. “As far as Killer Croc and stuff go, I do think Killer Croc is probably a little far fetched for that world. But the way that they did Riddler and Penguin in that movie totally felt like Riddler and Penguin. Even with Penguin with his prosthetics and everything. I feel like there’s a lot of characters that could enter that world, but Killer Croc and Mr. Freeze, Poison Ivy, maybe, maybe not.”

That’s not too optimistic for many who wished to see the likes of these Batman villains enter Gotham. Out of these, Killer Croc does appear a bit foolish, though it might supply some deep, dank fights in the sewers. But I might see Poison Ivy working extremely properly, particularly going off of how she was utilized in the Arkham video video games.

As for who we can count on to see in The Batman – Part II, we did get a glimpse of the franchise villain, Joker, in the 2022 film, with Barry Keoghan making a cameo because the Clown Prince of Crime. That mentioned, we is likely to be having a little bit Joker fatigue at this level, with Joaquin Phoenix’s second outing because the character due out this fall, simply beating The Batman – Part II to the punch even earlier than its launch date was moved again a 12 months.
