A fan asked Gunn on Threads if Reeves (pictured on the set of The Batman with Robert Pattinson) was working on more projects in the 'Batverse' in addition to The Batman: Part II, The Penguin series and the Arkham series.
“Right now Matt is producing Arkham as a DCU series, so there’s just the two for now,” Gunn replied confirming the Arkham series.
Another fan asked for clarification on the Arkham series set in the new DCU that Gunn and Safran are working on called Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
“Yes. We love Matt as a director and producer so he’ll be producing stories both within his The Batman universe and within the DCU,” Gunn said.
Gunn further clarified that the Arkham series was always planned to be set in the DCU and not in Elseworlds, the alternate universe where projects like Reeve's The Batman and Todd Phillips' Joker: Folie à Deux live.
“It was one of the first pitches we bought when Peter and I came onboard. I don’t know the permutations it went through before that time,” Gunn said of the Arkham series.
In the Batman universe, Arkham refers to Arkham Asylum, the fictional psychiatric hospital/prison that houses some of Batman's most infamous enemies.
