Unrecognisable
At the panel at DC FanDome, director Reeves said that The Batman will be an origin story for The Penguin, Catwoman and The Riddler. "It’s actually in a weird way the origins of a lot of our Rogues Gallery characters. Selina isn’t Catwoman yet, that’s actually part of the journey. Oz is not yet the kingpin that he’s going to become, he’s The Penguin and in fact, doesn’t like being called The Penguin. And The Riddler is just emerging for the first time," he said.
