As production on The Batman Part II prepares to get underway next year, James Gunn is battling more online fan speculation. The DC Studios boss took to social media on Friday to dispel a rumor that the Dark Knight’s orphaned sidekick Robin (aka Dick Grayson) will make his debut in Matt Reeves‘ upcoming sequel.

Following rumours about The Batman sequel featuring an appearance from Robin, DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn has once again taken to social media to debunk the claims being made about Matt Reeves' movie.

Gunn’s iteration of the iconic DC superhero features David Corenswet as the titular Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as the villainous Lex Luther. The movie became a box office hit, earning more than $323m (£240m) domestically.
