I just asked you how it\u2019s going with writing [\u2018Part II\u2019] and you said, \u2018Slow,\u2019 and I think that\u2019s a wonderful quality, because you care so much,\u201d she mentioned.<\/p>\n<p>Reeves acknowledged the challenges of his methodical course of. \u201cIt\u2019s wonderful, except for the speed of getting something done,\u201d he defined. \u201cThe thing is that for me, I feel like it\u2019s not a choice.

Everything you need is in the room, but there are no lights, and you\u2019re on hands and knees. And when something connects, you go, \u2018Oh, that\u2019s something.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As Reeves continues work on the <em>Batman<\/em> sequel, HBO can be trying to develop the Bat-Verse with extra of <em>The Penguin<\/em>. \u201cYeah, we\u2019re talking to [showrunner] Lauren [LeFranc] about doing another season,\u201d Reeves confirmed. \u201cThat was a special experience. I just feel really fortunate. These characters don\u2019t belong to me; they belong to the world. It comes down to whether you can approach them in a way that expresses something personal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While there have been discussions about doubtlessly merging Reeves\u2019 Batman world with James Gunn and Peter Safran\u2019s reimagined DC Universe, it seems unlikely for now.
