According to reports, the film was shown to select test audiences where it failed to achieve the studio’s expected reception. As a result, it fell under the hammer of cancellation by WB. WB Studios felt that if it got a bad response like in its test screening, it would not only hurt the studio’s image, but also incur huge losses.
According to the new CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery David Zaslav, they will now focus only on theatrical event films and mainly on films that will bring in huge profits. They want to set up a glorious plan for the next ten years where they can find everything sorted. According to WB’s plan, they will focus more on quality and not quantity, which means it doesn’t matter if the movie is complete or incomplete, but the studio won’t hesitate to throw it away if it looks Wrong.

Erik Davis asked if Robert Pattinson is the guy who will continue to hold the Dark Knight image as he also loved the first movie and wants to see Pattinson again:
Erik Davis: “Is it [Robert] Pattinson the guy [to continue to be the DC’s Batman]? It was also a decision of the old regime, that first Batman movie. Really good, I loved it. A bit divisive for some people, maybe not as accessible for some people. I know [Matt] Reeves wants to do a trilogy. We spoke to Pattinson, he wants to do a trilogy. He wants to do a whole arc as Bruce Wayne. Do you think they are staying the course?
To this, Umberto Gonzalez confirmed that the first movie was a success and widely appreciated, so it’s very unlikely to be canceled anytime soon:
Umberto Gonzalez: “Of course. Why wouldn’t they? The first movie was a hit, so I’m sure they’ll let Reeves do his trilogy. This Batman in this universe will keep moving forward.
