A surprising crew connection between The Batman Part II and Daniel Craig’s James Bond era has sparked fresh fan theories regarding Bruce Wayne’s storyline in the upcoming sequel.
Skyfall alum David Thackeray, who briefly appeared as a commuter in the 2012 007 feature before building a career as an intimacy coordinator on hits like Heartstopper and Sex Education, is serving as intimacy coordinator for The Batman Part II. His involvement has led fans to speculate that director Matt Reeves may be introducing more intimate sequences into the Gotham saga.
The Batman Part II credit has fans making some very NSFW Bruce Wayne theories
Director Matt Reeves previously noted that The Batman Part II will focus heavily on Bruce Wayne’s evolution. While the 2022 original depicted Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne as a traumatized vigilante, fans speculate that the sequel could see him adopting his playboy persona to avoid any suspicions over his nighttime activities.
The inclusion of an intimacy coordinator points toward the fact that Bruce Wayne could embrace his public image as a playboy. Fans have even speculated that Bruce Wayne might indulge in some unorthodox habits, which could include several one-night stands.
It is also possible that Batman gets into Gotham’s elite social circles or potential romantic subplots involving Zoë Kravitz’s Selina Kyle (Catwoman). Unconfirmed fan rumors have also linked stars Sebastian Stan and Scarlett Johansson to supporting roles as a married couple, further increasing online speculation.
As Gotham’s shadow expands, the inclusion of intimate storylines suggests a closer look at Bruce Wayne’s dual identity, balancing intense action with other pursuits of life.
While fans have been cooking up all sorts of theories, they won’t know for sure until the film is in theaters. Currently in production, Warner Bros. has slated The Batman Part II for theatrical release on February 18, 2028.
