While The Penguin may indeed make an appearance in Matt Reeves' The Batman, we're now hearing that he won't be the main villain! According to Grace Randolph's sources, Reeves will actually be utilising The Court of Owls as his principal antagonists in the film, with Oswald Cobblepot on hand as a secondary baddie.
In addition, Grace has heard that several villains were considered for Gavin O'Connor's Suicide Squad 2 once Black Adam fell through (The Rock couldn't commit, apparently), including Zatanna, Raven, and, most intriguingly, Kara Zor-El!
It seems WB were toying with the idea of having a mind-controlled Supergirl going up against Task Force X. As cool as that sounds, it seems the studio has settled on another very interesting character: Amazo, the android with the power to duplicate the skills and abilities of his opponents.
We'll obviously have to treat this as a rumor for now, but Randolph did recently share some solid info on the Birds of Prey movie, so there's a decent chance at least some of this is accurate.
