Danny DeVito has expressed interest in reprising his role as Oswald Cobblepot, also known as Penguin, from the iconic film Batman Returns. He has hinted at the possibility of teaming up with Arnold Schwarzenegger's Mr. Freeze to take on Michael Keaton's Batman. While this idea has sparked excitement among fans, the likelihood of it coming to fruition remains uncertain.
Despite the popularity of Tim Burton's Batman movies, Batman & Robin, which featured Schwarzenegger as Mr. Freeze, is considered less favorably among Batman enthusiasts. However, Schwarzenegger's enduring appeal has kept fans hopeful for a potential reunion of the actors in their comic book roles.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE, DeVito playfully entertained the idea of returning to the Batman universe, acknowledging the challenges of resurrecting his character, considering Penguin's fate in Batman Returns. He humorously suggested the idea of reuniting with Schwarzenegger on screen, prompting speculation among fans.
While the prospect of seeing these three actors together in a Batman movie may seem like a distant fantasy, DeVito and Schwarzenegger are determined to collaborate on a new project. Having previously worked together on films like Twins and Junior, the duo had plans for a sequel to Twins titled Triplets. Unfortunately, the project faced setbacks, including the passing of the intended director, Ivan Reitman.
Despite these obstacles, DeVito has hinted at an upcoming project with Schwarzenegger, indicating that a new movie featuring the duo is in the works. Their longstanding friendship and successful past collaborations have fueled anticipation for their next venture, promising an exciting on-screen reunion for fans.
