The Batman joker might becoming a villain in an upcoming movie and series. This rumor is based on the idea the Joker from Matt Reeves movie played by Barry Keoghan will be a big bad for The Batman 3. To make sure he has bigger appeal.

The joker played a small role in Reeves Batman. While we see him in the original run at the end in a edited scene we do see Batman going to him in Arkham in order to get a better understanding of who is committing the crime. A look into there mind.

Given we only got a brief look at the best of times it would be cool to see how Joker in in Matt Reeves world if we give him more screen time. The one problem is this is all based on a rumor. All of this is from Marvel vision podcaster Derek Faraci. Matt Reeves his part doesn’t have things planned out in such a grand scale. To prove this the Riddler making friends with the Joker is not like a movie Easter egg as we have seen in comic book based movies of the past. According to Reeves he has no idea where this will go.

“It’s not an Easter egg scene. It’s not one of those end credits Marvel or DC scenes where it’s going, like, ‘Hey, here’s the next movie!’ In fact, I have no idea when or if we would return to that character in the movies.” Matt Reeves 2022 interview

That being the case that was then. Given how both the Batman and the Penguin have blown up things might have changed and Reeves be planning more broadly but we will see.
