Writer Terrence Winter has shared details of the Gotham PD series that could have been joining Matt Reeves’ The Batman universe. The world that Matt Reeves is developing recently expanded with the highly praised The Penguin. The series will bridge the gap between The Batman and the upcoming sequel, The Batman – Part II, which is expected to open in theaters on October 2, 2026. Now dubbed “The Epic Crime Saga,” Matt Reeves originally had more plans beyond The Penguin as a series centered around the Gotham City Police Department titled GCPD, and Arkham Asylum were announced, yet both series were eventually scrapped.
