The director and co- writer of the Batman Begins and The Dark Knight film Christopher Nolan is not committed to another Batman sequel, clearing up that he does not usually line up projects after finishing a film. Gary Oldman is certain Nolan will return, and Bale said he would return if Nolan did. Oldman hinted in the third film Gordon would have to “hunt down Batman”. He has also speculated that the villain of the upcoming film may be the Riddler. Nolan explained that as long as he is directing, he is not including Robin in the franchise because Bale is still portraying a “young Batman”, which meant “Robin’s not for a few films”. In addition, Nolan considers the Penguin difficult to portray on film, explaining, “There are certain characters that are easier to mesh with the more real take on Batman we’re doing. The Penguin would be tricky.”
