'The Batman' director Matt Reeves reveals the origin story for Barry Keoghan’s Joker from the five-minute deleted scene, hints at the character’s return.
Speculation about The Batman's take on the Joker has been rampant since the film's release, and director Matt Reeves has now shed some more light on the subject. Following the release of the five-minute deleted scene where Batman interrogates Joker about The Riddler , Reeves has spoken with Variety about the nature of this villain's unique look.
"There might be places. There's stuff I'm very interested in doing in an Arkham space, potentially for HBO Max. There are things we've talked about there. So it's very possible. It also isn't impossible that there is some story that comes back where Joker comes into our world." The Arkham series evolved from the initially-set Gotham City Police Department series, with which Reeves was also involved. Audiences were curious whether Joker would factor into that Arkham series, given his scene with The Riddler that ended up in the finished film. Based on Reeves's comments, it sounds like we can surely expect to see this tragic and unique take on the Clown Prince of Crime soon.
