MUMBAI : British actor Robert Pattinson has tested positive for Covid-19, thus halting production of The Batman and highlighting the industry’s struggles to get back to business after months of a pandemic-induced shutdown.

MUMBAI: Director Matt Reeves has unleashed ‘The Batman’ in his all-new teaser that dropped online at the DC FanDome.

Starring Robert Pattinson as the caped vigilante, the film is reportedly inspired by classic noirs like ‘Chinatown’ and ‘Taxi Driver’, and will meet a "very human and very flawed" Bruce Wayne in his second year as Batman. Deviating from the usual comic book hero stories we have seen adapted on the big screen thus far, this one will reportedly see a much younger Batman play Gotham City’s vigilante detective trying to solve a series of crimes.

MUMBAI: "I'm vengeance," was all Robert Pattinson had to say for fans to be sold on his introduction as ‘The Batman’.

Fans of the actor who have been following his film graph since he first melted hearts as Cedric Diggory in the 'Harry Potter' series and then as the hunky Vampire Edward Cullen in the hugely successful teen-romance series ‘Twilight’, were quick to draw parallels. A Twitter user even found a perfect clip that seemingly “foreshadowed” his future superhero role as Batman.

MUMBAI : Filmmaker Matt Reeves has unveiled the first trailer of his film, The Batman, which shows actor Robert Pattinson taking on the avatar of the caped crusader for vengeance.

The teaser shows a new dark, gritty, and violent take on the iconic superhero. The footage plays against a haunting version of Nirvana's "Something in the way".

MUMBAI: Actor Robert Pattinson said he lied to filmmaker Christopher Nolan to make it to the screen test for superhero film, The Batman.

In an interview to Irish Times, Pattinson recalled his attempt to sneak away from "Tenet" set for his "Batman" audition. He said that he cited "family emergency" for his absence from the sets of "Tenet", but the filmmaker was quick to figure out the truth, reports ew.com.
