The planned prequel series for the recently released The Batman movie is not moving forward on HBO Max. Gotham Central was set to feature a cop from the Gotham Police Department who is fighting for his soul.
Gotham Central was ordered to series by HBO Max in July 2020. Matt Reeves revealed the plans for the series were shelved in a recent edition of the Happy Sad Confused podcast. He said the following, per Deadline:
“One thing that we’re not doing that I was gonna do. … So there’s the Gotham police show, which, that one actually is put on hold. We’re not really doing that.”
Reeves indicated that he hopes “maybe someday” revisit the project.
For the immediate future, The CW has ordered a pilot for the potential Gotham Knights TV show. The series would take place after Bruce Wayne’s demise and focus on the offspring of Batman’s enemies after they’ve been framed for killing the caped crusader.
