The Batman Part II is reportedly bringing a familiar name back to Gotham. According to the latest updates, the movie appears to have tapped Tyler Nelson, a key collaborator on Mindhunter and Creed, for the DC sequel.
@TheBatmanSagaNW reports Nelson is set to return as an editor on Robert Pattinson’s The Batman movie. With the franchise reportedly bringing the editor back, they are inevitably linking the upcoming DC sequel to Mindhunter Seasons 1 & 2 and Creed III, two of his previous projects.
According to Matt Reeves’ previous comments to SFX magazine, per Deadline, The Batman II is “going to dig into the epic story about deeper corruption, and it goes into places that he couldn’t anticipate in the first one. The seeds of where this goes are all in the first movie, and it expands in a way that will show you aspects of the character you never got to see.”
Tyler Nelson previously co-edited The Batman with William Hoy
Nelson has worked on some really iconic projects over the years. This includes Reeves’ original The Batman, which he co-edited with William Hoy for Warner Bros. Pictures.
Among the editor’s other notable works in feature films and television, as shared through his resume by the Iconic Talent Agency, are Joachim Rønning’s Tron: Ares, Lee Toland Kreiger’s Shadow and Bone Season 1, Charlie McDowell’s Tales From the Loop Episode 106, Jerome Chen’s Love, Death & Robots: Lucky 13, Mark Palansky’s Rememory, Carl Erik Rinsch’s White Horse, and David Fincher and Michael Lehmann’s Videosyncrasy Season 1.
