Batman might have have been on this year’s Comic-Con schedule, but it easily became a hot topic.

At Friday’s panel for The Book of Eli, Gary Oldman was asked about the superhero franchise. The actor, who played Police Commissioner Gordon in the first two films, got the crowd buzzing with his response.

“We start shooting next year,” Oldman revealed. “Which means the movie won’t come out for another two years.” Uh, did he just say what we think he said? “But you didn’t hear it from me!” he added.

Sorry, Gary—but we heard you loud and clear.
