Another A-list name is now being linked to The Batman – Part II.
Online rumors suggest Brad Pitt is being considered to play the villain in the next Batman movie directed by Matt Reeves, with some speculation pointing towards the role of Dr. Arkham.
As with the recent Scarlett Johansson report, details on the role are being kept under wraps.

Another High-Profile Addition?
A rumor about Brad Pitt, reported by Jeff Sneider, appeared shortly after several sources confirmed that Scarlett Johansson is being considered for the next film.
Okay, so Warner Bros. isn’t saying anything officially, but there’s been a ton of buzz about some really big names potentially joining the Batman universe! It definitely feels like director Matt Reeves is planning something huge for Gotham and could be adding a lot more characters.
Brad Pitt hasn’t worked as a DC character before and has generally avoided long-term roles lately, so the news that he might be involved is unexpected. If the rumor is true, it suggests that Matt Reeves and Warner Bros. are looking for major stars to fill out the supporting roles in the sequel.

What Role Could Brad Pitt Play?
Details are still unknown, but people are already guessing about Brad Pitt’s potential role. Many fans think he might play a significant character in Gotham City, possibly a villain or someone connected to Bruce Wayne.
Reports suggest Scarlett Johansson is being considered for a role, and there’s also talk that Dr. Arkham might be featured as a villain.
Reeves prefers realistic, character-focused acting, so it makes sense that Pitt would be cast in a serious, dramatic role instead of a typical superhero part.
