The Batman: 10 Predictions For Where Matt Reeves Could Take The Franchise
2. The Riddler Returns
Only around 25 - 30% of The Batman had been shot before the production was forced to close down as a result of current world events, but based on what the teaser trailer showed of The Riddler, it's clear fans aren't getting the bowler hat wearing, cane twirling baddie from the comic books who wears a bright green costume covered in question marks.
In fact, this Riddler looks like he would be better suited to a movie like Se7en, but there's also reason to believe this could just be his first form before he embraces something a little closer to the comics.
Regardless, it's hard to imagine him being a one and done villain who is forgotten about after this initial conflict, and you don't need to be a master of riddles to figure out what a great big bad The Riddler would make, pulling the strings from Arkham Asylum in a quest to get the ultimate revenge on Batman.
In Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee's seminal "Hush," it was The Riddler who sent all of Batman's greatest foes after him, ultimately revealing that he'd learned his secret identity. That sounds like it has all the makings of an epic event movie, don't you think?
