Sebastian Stan Name-Dropped His Role In “The Batman Part II” With Scarlett Johansson Also Starring: Here’s What We Know
by Benjamin Dzialdowski · BuzzFeedThere's been a LOT of speculation about Sebastian Stan's role in Matt Reeves' upcoming The Batman sequel, and he's finally put any doubt to rest by directly stating the character he''ll be playing.
In a recent interview, the Marvel star confirmed that he'll be portraying Harvey Dent (Two Face) in the highly anticipated sequel set to be released February 18, 2028.
In addition to the returning Robert Pattinson as Batman, Jeffrey Wright as Jim Gordon, and Colin Farrell as the Penguin, Sebastian Stan will once again share the screen with MCU costar Scarlett Johansson.
It's unknown exactly who Scarlett Johansson will be playing. While there's speculation that she'll be playing Gilda Gold, a.k.a. Gilda Dent, others seem to think she'll portray Andrea Beaumont; and there's also been suggestions she's been cast as Poison Ivy...
Filming is ongoing, with reported sightings of the Batmobile in Glasgow this month, the same location that was used for the 2022 The Batman film.
It's safe to say that fans are excited by the casting of Stan as Dent...

YAAAAS! I knew they won’t waste a name like Sebastian Stan on some unimportant, one-dimensional character (because talk the talk but Harvey is the complex one, the other was just some psycho). Anyway, super hyped about The Batman II, gonna be EPIC! 🔥🔥🔥 https://t.co/oaRjsDGDfD pic.twitter.com/b9FOjwSElx

DC really went and told Sebastian Stan: Don’t reveal anything about the movie’s plot but you can tell them you’re playing Harvey because the hype was kinda cool for sales. 😌 I ain’t complaining because that’s literally all I still wanted to know. The Batman II will be legendary! pic.twitter.com/QN2vhxjE5h
