With The Drama, The Odyssey, and Dune: Part Three, Robert Pattinson is having quite a hectic year. In a good way. He's also set to start shooting the long-delayed The Batman Part II, meaning that he has probably participated in movies worth around $1 billion collectively this year. This is a major change of pace for Pattinson, who spent several years after his initial success working with arthouse filmmakers on international projects. It was only around five years ago that he actively made an attempt to return to the mainstream, and shortly afterward, bagged the role of Batman in director Matt Reeves' reboot film.

While Marvel fans are preparing for a few big movies this year, like Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Avengers: Doomsday, it’s angling to be a quieter year for DC in 2026. The studio does have a few big new releases coming later this year, like Supergirl, which features stars like Milly Alcock and Jason Momoa. The second and final DC movie of the year is Clayface, starring Tom Rhys Harries, which is coming to theaters this October. Both films are operating under James Gunn’s new DCU banner, but there’s another DC film in development set in Elseworlds that may be the most anticipated superhero movie of the next few years. The film in question is The Batman Part II, which comes from director Matt Reeves, who also helmed the 2022 Batman film.
