Now that David Corenswet's Superman is flying high at the box office and Milly Alcock's Supergirl is hitting cinemas next year, DC fans are already thinking about the next major superheroes that are set to join the franchise. Of course, we're talking about Batman and Wonder Woman, who are yet to be cast in the new DCU.

While DC Studios has yet to announce the cast for its upcoming Brave and the Bold movie, WWE veteran Randy Orton recently expressed his interest in playing Batman in the new DCU. The movie has yet to receive a release date window,

New character details for DC Studios’ Clayface have been revealed, including the movie’s lead, love interest, love rival, and villain. There’s also news on whether it will feature the DCU’s Batman.

James Gunn’s DCU still hasn’t found its Batman… or has it? From Alan Ritchson to Robert Pattinson, here’s who could play him.

James Gunn's Superman movie quite literally sets a roadmap for the DCU heading towards a World's Finest team-up with Batman.

The DCU Batman has been a topic of discussion for a while, and ever since the release of Superman on July 11, 2025, people have been wondering about this universe's Caped Crusader.

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.

Elsewhere in the Batman live-action economy, writer and director Matt Reeves previously shared news that the script for The Batman: Part 2 has finally been completed, moving forward with the second installment in the Patts-Man franchise, separate from the ambitious cinematic goals kicked off by Superman.

While Pattinson's Batman is part of the Matt Reeves Elseworlds universe, and therefore most likely won't ever cross over with David Corenswet's Superman, the DCU does have its own Batman project in the works: The Brave and the Bold.

DCU's Superman depicting a character as very similar to Batman makes the franchise's prospects for both figures seem very much promising.
