This weekend, renowned entertainment journalist Jeff Sneider unveiled a trove of exclusive news regarding "The Batman" universe. He first broke the story that Sebastian Stan's villainous role is not Two-Face, then followed up by stating that "The Penguin" would not receive a second season. Finally, on "The Hot Mic" podcast, Sneider disclosed that a second villain-centric series, set to follow "The Penguin," is already in active development.

Sneider indicated that the next planned villain series will center on Poison Ivy and is currently in its early stages of development. He added that details regarding who will portray Poison Ivy, as well as the writer and showrunner, are not yet known. Sneider suggested that while the character of Poison Ivy might feel somewhat "weird" or "comical" in a feature film, potentially clashing with the main storyline's grounded, realistic tone, a standalone series could be a viable approach.
