WHAT TO EXPECT 

Director Matt Reeves mentioned that he feels this could be “the most emotional Batman movie ever made.” 

Although the movie has been made several times before, Robert Pattinson told Entertainment Weekly that this film felt different and special to him. 

“Batman has always stood out as one of the major characters of the 20th century and so many people connect with it on such a deep level for so many different reasons.”

“From the first conversation I had with Matt about it, I just knew that there was something radically different [here].” 

 The new trailer for The Batman was released on Monday 27 December and gives viewers a glimpse into Bruce Wayne’s mystery and strength. It also features interactions between Batman and Catwoman as they prepare to dominate The Riddler.

“The Bat and the Cat… It’s got a nice ring to it,” says Catwoman.

The film is set to be released on 4 March 2022.
