Leaked London Set Footage Suggests Court of Owls and Anarky Appear in The Batman: Part II

Images point to a protest‑centered story that foregrounds class conflict plus secret‑society themes and have intensified casting and villain speculation before official confirmation.

Overview

  • Leaked photos and a roughly 12‑second clip that circulated Sunday and Monday show Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne being escorted through a dense protest on a London set while crew and cameras film the sequence.
  • Multiple protest signs use the word “Court” and carry anti‑elite slogans, and a masked figure bearing an anarchy symbol appears in the crowd, prompting outlets to report that the Court of Owls and the comic character Anarky may be involved, though those appearances remain unconfirmed.
  • Director Matt Reeves announced the principal cast earlier in 2026, including Robert Pattinson, Jeffrey Wright and new additions such as Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan, but the studio has not disclosed which actors will play the specific villain roles that leaks now speculate about.
  • Reporters and fans note Matt Reeves has used alternate shoots and misdirection previously, and outlets caution that social‑media set leaks may not reflect the finished film or final edits.
  • If the Court of Owls does appear it would mark their first big‑screen live‑action outing, the set activity signals the film is exploring wealth and power themes, production continues in the UK, and the movie is scheduled for release on February 18, 2028.
