Still, there will be other returns to Gotham City within the next two and a half years, as there is The Penguin series on the way, and another series that started off as a Gotham City Police Department show but has seemingly morphed into one focused on the residents of Arkham Asylum.
Outside of this continuity, there's also the new main DC Universe that James Gunn is in charge of.
A new Batman hasn't been announced yet, but the character is set to be an important part of that universe, with the film The Brave and the Bold focused on the Bat-family.
