Andy Serkis talked a bit about THE BATMAN PART II on the HAPPY SAD CONFUSED podcast recently. One of the things he revealed was that he almost wasn’t available for the film due to his super busy schedule.  Thankfully, he and Matt Reeves got it figured out, and Serkis will indeed reprise his role of Alfred Pennyworth in PART II.

Serkis also told host Josh Horowitz that the script is “an amazing…great script,” and that he concurred with Robert Pattinson’s use of “big swing,” “dark,” “emotional,” and “deep” as adjectives for THE BATMAN PART II.

Finally, he also talked about how he approached the role of Alfred, which you can check out in the video below…

Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
