Matt Reeves' The Batman is getting a TV show spinoff focused on the Gotham PD. After Ben Affleck's exit from the DC Extended Universe, Reeves has been given complete freedom to craft a new take on the Dark Knight. His upcoming movie stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, in what should be the start of a multiple-film run for him in the suit.
Although plot details on The Batman are still unknown, Reeves' plans to create a rich and fully-realized Batman universe is clear. It has already been teased that he has plans for a trilogy of films, and the first one alone will introduce multiple characters from the Batman mythos.

Now, Reeves' expansive plans for The Batman are becoming even more clear.

This is an amazing opportunity, not only to expand the vision of the world I am creating in the film, but to explore it in the kind of depth and detail that only a longform format can afford — and getting to work with the incredibly talented Terence Winter, who has written so insightfully and powerfully about worlds of crime and corruption, is an absolute dream.
Let's see how Reeves make this series which will explore in depths of the city of Gotham.
