  "account": "Warner Bros. is celebrating Batman Day next week by re-releasing three beloved Batman films in theaters. The lineup includes Tim Burton's classic Batman, the animated Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, and the animated The LEGO Batman Movie. These films will be shown at AMC, Cinemark, and Regal theaters across the country, with a different movie premiering each night of the weekend.\n\nFans may recall Burton's Batman from their childhood, but it's worth revisiting on the big screen. Mask of the Phantasm, in particular, was only released theatrically in the 90s, so seeing it in a movie theater now provides an unparalleled experience.\n\nMeanwhile, Batman's next feature film, The Batman Part 2, starring Robert Pattinson, is still years away. Production has been delayed, but the film is slated to hit theaters in February 2027. The plot remains under wraps, but speculation is rife that Sebastian Stan will portray the iconic villain Two Face.",
