It is a prequel to Reeves&#8217; film, being set during the first year of Batman&#8217;s career as a vigilante in Gotham. There is no word if any <strong>The Batman<\/strong> cast members such as Jeffrey Wright (Commissioner Jim Gordon) or John Turturro (gangster Carmine Falcone) will crossover to the new show.<\/p>\n<p>The show was ordered direct to series by HBO Max as part of a plan by Warners Media to create a cross-platform universe of stories based in the new version of Gotham City that Reeves is world building in his film. This version of Batman will be a separate one from the one played by Ben Affleck in the DC Comics Expanded Universe feature films or the one mentioned but never seen on the CW&#8217;s <em>Batwoman<\/em> television series.<\/p>\n<p>This is not the only superhero-themed series that HBO Max has in the works.
