We saw him at the end of the film, in an Arkham cell , as he consoles the Riddler ( Paul Dano ) after his plan fails.

Some time ago, director Matt Reeves had talked about a scene with the character removed from the final cut:

It’s a scene where we see Batman very upset that the Riddler is writing to him. He wonders, “Well, why is this guy writing to me?” And he realizes he has to profile this killer.

He then goes to meet another killer with whom he clearly has had an experience in these first two years. And the killer in this story isn’t the character we know yet, right? They are all in their infancy.

In the comics, these characters often declare their alter ego in response to the fact that there is a Batman out there. And so, here we have a Joker who isn’t the Joker yet.

The scene in question has finally landed on the web. This is a particularly intense moment, which allows us to take a concrete look at the look of Barry Keoghan ‘s Joker .
