Earlier this week, we finally got some news on the roster of heroes (and villains) we'll see in Birds of Prey. It's previously been reported that the team would be squaring off with the Batman villain The Penguin but Umberto Gonzalez now claims that he's been axed from the script. That's a shame but on the plus side, he heavily implies that we'll actually see Oswald Cobblepot appear in The Batman!
That makes sense as he's also been rumoured to appear there and it makes sense Warner Bros. would give Matt Reeves his pick of iconic bad guys in his planned (and long overdue) DC Comics adaptation.
This should, of course, be taken with a pinch of salt for now but The Penguin's return to the big screen is long overdue regardless of whether it's going to happen in Birds of Prey or The Batman. There have been countless reports about which beloved bad guys will be incorporated into the Caped Crusader's corner of the DCEU and Black Mask is one name that's regularly been mentioned for Birds of Prey.
