Glasgow's contribution to Part II is the most extensively documented and the most geographically specific of all the filming locations. Production designer Luke Hull was location scouting by late November 2025, particularly at Glasgow Cathedral and Anderston railway station. Fans spotted shots of cathedral stonework, narrow streets and the concrete gloom around Anderston station in the early scout photographs.

Three weeks of filming start from August 18, with confirmed locations including Bothwell Street, Wellington Street, Glasgow Bridge, Broomielaw, Newton Street under the Kingston Bridge, North Street, Pitt Street and the National Cycle Network Route 75 along the River Clyde. The road closure notices published by Glasgow City Council provide this detailed filming location info.

From August 2 through the end of the month: Bothwell Street between Blythswood Street and Wellington Street; St Vincent Street between Douglas Street and Hope Street; Wellington Street between Cadogan Street and West Regent Street; West Campbell Street between Waterloo Street and West George Street; Pitt Street between Bishop Lane and Bothwell Street. From August 27 to 29: Broomielaw between Oswald Street and Jamaica Street; Clyde Place between George V Bridge and Glasgow Bridge; Glasgow Bridge west side; Robertson Street east side. From August 28 to September 6: Washington Street between Broomielaw and Balaclava Street.

Besides the bulk of filming taking place on soundstages at Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden in Hertfordshire — the same studio complex that housed the first film's interior work — London is also confirmed as an additional filming location alongside Liverpool and Glasgow, with specific London streets and buildings not yet publicly identified.

The Batman: Part II is scheduled for release on February 18, 2028.
