the box office opening at 53.8 million dollars that is still the biggest opening weekend of any film in the conjuring universe it went on to gross 360 million dollars worldwide and became the highest grossing film in the horror saga despite all that it received the worst rotten tomato score and cinema score of any film in the conjuring universe the box office returns were still enough to spur a sequel which was first announced to be in development back in 2019 since then there have been a handful of updates here and there warner bros discovery has finally

comic book hero batman and dc stiff competition in the mcu reeves faced an uphill battle with 2022's the batman despite those factors the film managed to set itself apart from fan favorite trilogy the dark knight and marvel solo hero films by channeling a noir detective style that worked in the film's favor the batman received praise from critics and fans alike for robert pattinson's interpretation of the character the film's take on comic book villain the riddler and the darker themes explored in the movie though the batman was a hit the future isn't set in stone for
a sequel despite warner brothers announcement back in april in fact sequel film the batman 2 has yet to be greenlit by warner brothers since it is still listed as in development this news is especially concerning given the recent tumult when it comes to dc's film and tv verse such as the sudden cancellation of batgirl luckily a promising script update might bring those hoping to see pattinson return in reeves version of gotham some relief according to deadline reeves is co-writing the batman 2 with matson tomlin and they are still in the process of creating the script
with pattinson set to return as the titular character not much is known regarding the plot of the batman 2 since the script is still in development however with the jokerts introducing barry kogan at the end of the first film perhaps the fan favorite batman villain will make an appearance in the sequel one thing is certain though the batman 2 is reportedly in the works reeves has made it clear that they may be a while before the film was released saying that he originally created the batman as a standalone experience and would re-evaluate plans for a
sequel based on viewer response considering the success of that film it's heartening to hear that reeves is on board to add another chapter to the hero story everyone appreciates a change of scenery from time to time and for actor jason momoa that change comes in the form of his villainous role in fast x the tenth installment of the fast and furious franchise having played the hero across many of his previous works mamoa is enjoying the thrill of being the guy that everyone else hates in a brief chat with variety at the red carpet premiere of
the third season of the actor's apple tv plus series c mamoa teased the arrival of his villainous bad guy to the world of cars and dominic tiretto portrayed by vin diesel the actor was excited about being cast in the role and offered his opinion on what he thinks are the issues driving his character in the 10th mainline entry he said time of my life i get to be the bad guy finally i've been the good guy for a while he's very sadistic and androgynous and he's bit of a peacock he's got a lot of issues
this guy he's definitely got some daddy issues over the last nine films the fast and furious franchise has featured a number of memorable villains especially in later installments as the characters and their evil plans become more over the top from amowa's comments it would seem that fast x will feature the most extreme villain yet with the actors specifically describing the character as a peacock it's not clear yet what type of issue specifically the villain will be working through however nor is it clear exactly what momoa's character is trying to achieve or why now about nine
months away from the release of fast x it's likely that fans will be treated to a trailer in the coming months providing the first official look at momoa in the film thanks for watching catch you in the next video
