Locals spotted the heavily-modified muscle car pulling into a garage on August 17, with TikTok users quickly pinpointing its exact location. Fans expressed excitement, praising the Batmobile's design and joking about Glaswegian traditions. Production of the sequel began in June, with filming crews set to disrupt major Glasgow routes starting August 18 for a three-week run. Glasgow itself is being transformed to resemble Gotham City, with massive murals removed to accommodate the city's new superhero aesthetic. The location has previously hosted Spider-Man: Brand New Day in 2025 and The Batman in 2020, showcasing the city's versatile appeal for large-scale productions.",
