TheBatman director confirms mystery character's identity, says that is not a tease for a sequel

The Batman director Matt Reeves confirmed that mystery character's identity. He says that it's not a tease for a sequel. In a chat with Variety, the filmmaker explained that Barry Keoghan is actually playing the Joker."You're right," Reeves told the publication."It is the Joker." However, his other comments will raise some eyebrows among people that were hoping for the Clown Prince of Crime in whatever follow-up comes from The Batman.

"It's not an Easter egg scene," he began."It's not one of those end credits Marvel or DC scenes where it's going, like, 'Hey, here's the next movie!' In fact, I have no idea when or if we would return to that character in the movies." "I thought it'd be really neat if so much of the fabric of Gotham just already existed," Reeves added."And it was like an old Warner Bros. gangster movie and if you took a certain turn, you might see a character in his origins."

"I never was trying to say like, 'Hey, guess what, here's the Joker. Next movie!'" he continued."The idea was more to say, 'Hey, look, if you think that trouble is going to go away in Gotham, you can forget it. It's already here. And it's already delicious.
