Scarlett Johansson Cast in The Batman 2 — Wild Fan Theories & Likely Roles

Big DC movie news for the week: Scarlett Johansson is officially joining the cast of The Batman Part II in an unspecified role—and our panel breaks down all the possible characters she might be playing.

We explore every realistic (and not-so-realistic) option based on the tone of Matt Reeves’ universe:

🔥 Poison Ivy? The most obvious fan pick
🔥 Andrea Beaumont / The Phantasm? Reeves hinted the villain would be someone “rarely seen in live-action,” and this would be a MASSIVE first for Batman movies
🔥 Gorilla Grodd? Reeves directed Planet of the Apes — could ScarJo be doing motion capture?
🔥 Detective Chimp? Yes, we go there, and yes… we kind of love it
🔥 Barbara Gordon? Could she fit as Jeffrey Wright’s daughter?
🔥 Kate Kane? A grounded, non-Batwoman version?

We also discuss:

– Scarlett Johansson’s performance in the new Jurassic Park film
– What kind of tone Matt Reeves is creating for his Elseworld Batman universe
– How Mask of the Phantasm and Batman: The Animated Series influence this theory
– Why Phantasm’s twist in animation was essentially “misogyny as misdirection”
– Why some characters break this universe… and why some would be perfect

If ScarJo ends up being the live-action Phantasm, this could be one of the boldest Batman casting choices in years.

Netflix Buys Warner Bros: The Biggest Shake-Up in Entertainment History? (DC, HBO, Harry Potter)

This week we break down one of the biggest entertainment stories of the decade: Netflix is buying Warner Bros. And with that deal comes a mountain of implications—DC Studios, HBO, Harry Potter, merchandising, theatrical releases, and more.

In this episode, our panel dives deep into what this potential acquisition could mean for the entire pop-culture landscape:

🔥 What is Warner Bros anymore? The confusing state of WB under David Zaslav
🔥 Concerns about Netflix’s “second-screen” strategy and the fear of dumbing down DC content
🔥 Will DCU movies still release in theaters— or just get two-week limited releases like Knives Out?
🔥 The possibility of Netflix opening its own theaters
🔥 How this affects DC Studios, ongoing productions, Harry Potter reboots, and massive budgets
🔥 Could Netflix cancel projects… or release shelved films like Batgirl?
🔥 Merchandising: Netflix has NEVER had IP libraries this big (DC, Harry Potter, WB classics)
🔥 The Mark Millar universe comparison—Netflix’s history of dropping the ball on big IP
🔥 How HBO Max (or Max) could be folded into Netflix’s platform
🔥 Could the Snyderverse return under this deal?
🔥 The Netflix House experiment and what it signals about the company’s long-term strategy

We also react to comments, talk about the Rebel Moon comics, and explore the weirdest possible crossover ideas (Lex Luthor in SpongeBob, Batman meets Yellowstone, and more).

This story is massive and still developing—estimated 12–18 months before anything final happens—so we break down what’s real, what’s speculation, and what actually matters for fans of comics, DC, and pop culture.
