On September 16, the citizens of Gotham City and even Hollywood looked to the sky to spot the Bat sign, as Variety reported that the DC Comics icon Batman will officially receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame next Thursday, September 26th. The 2,790th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame will be dedicated next to the stars of television’s Batman actor Adam West and the Dark Knight’s co-creator, Bob Kane.
Bat-Sized Celebration
Jim Lee, DC’s president, publisher, and chief creative officer, and Anne DePies, DC’s senior vice president and general manager, will attend the Batman Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony at 11:30 a.m. PT at 6764 Hollywood Boulevard in front of the Hollywood Guinness World Records Museum. During the event, the masked vigilante himself will also appear in costume to accept his star in the motion pictures category and the Guinness World Records title for the first superhero with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The special presentation will be hosted by official GWR adjudicator Michael Empric. In addition to the Lee signing, Warner Bros. Archives will stage a curated pop-up museum of costumes and props from Batman’s history in film and TV at Funko Hollywood. Various props and iconic costumes will be displayed, all in service as the main draw to entice the overall experience.
Batman is just the 20th fictional character to receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. As part of the Hollywood Walk of Fame Class of 2024, Batman joins a list of honorees that includes Tim Burton (director, 1989’s Batman and 1992’s Batman Returns), Maggie Gyllenhaal (who played Rachel Dawes of 2008’s The Dark Knight), and Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman and Justice League).
Return To Gotham
Of course, in the meantime, fans and general audiences alike will see the re-emergence of the criminal element with the official series debut of The Penguin, a new chapter and side-story series that’s now streaming on HBO. The latest DC comic book adaption will feature Colin Farrell as the villain Oswald Cobb and will chronicle his journey to be the sole kingpin of Gotham City. Matt Reeves’ The Batman is currently streaming on MAX, and the second Robert Pattison-led film is set to kick off production next year before a 2026 October release date.
