Barry Keoghan hasn’t ‘heard anything’ about suiting up as The Joker again for The Batman: Part II
The 32-year-old actor briefly appeared as the Clown Prince of Crime in director Matt Reeves‘ DC superhero blockbuster in 2022, and while Keoghan would love to play the character again in the sequel, he hasn’t been approached about doing so yet.

“But I have not been contacted, I’ve not heard anything.”
While the ‘Saltburn’ star is unsure whether he will be in ‘The Batman: Part II’, it has been confirmed that Robert Pattinson, Colin Farrell and Zoe Kravitz are set to reprise their respective roles as the Caped Crusader, the Penguin and Catwoman in the follow-up flick.
Kravitz previously said she was “keeping herself busy” with other projects like her thriller ‘Blink Twice’ while she waited for Reeves to complete the sequel’s script.
