Glasgow goes Gotham: ‘The Batman: Part II’ transforms Scottish city

By Jake Meeus-Jones

Fictional police and SWAT cars take over Glasgow as filming is set to begin on superhero sequel "The Batman: Part II."

Photos captured by William Sutton, 27, near McAlpine Street in Glasgow shows a parking lot with half a dozen police cruisers as the city prepares to become the fictional city of Gotham.

In another image, two large SWAT SUVs belonging to Gotham Police are seen loaded up on the back of a truck.

A video clip shows the Batmobile being driven into the parking lot while under a cover.

Glasgow has doubled as Gotham before — in "The Flash" and in the first "The Batman."

Filming is set last until early September and the film — starring Robert Pattinson, Colin Farrell and Scarlett Johansson — releases in 2028.

William said: "I think the cars are being moved around and readied for filming."

"We saw the Batmobile and some SWAT cars and police cars."
