Initially scheduled for June 2021, the release of The Batman has finally been postponed to September 29, 2021 in France. After spending confinement in London, Robert Pattinson is preparing to get back to work.
Revealed by Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire as well as the Twilight saga, Robert Pattinson has built an extremely solid filmography in a few years. After breaking away from the role of Edward Cullen, the actor has stepped up collaborations with recognized authors.
Indeed, the actor has shot under the direction of David Cronenberg (Cosmopolis, Maps to the Stars), James Gray (The Lost City of Z) or Claire Denis (High Life).
If he is more oriented towards independent cinema, Robert Pattinson has not completely abandoned the big Hollywood machines. The star has taken on a major challenge, that of being the new face of Batman in the cinema.
The actor therefore has the difficult task of succeeding Michael Keaton, Christian Bale or Ben Affleck in the role of the Dark Knight.
And he is also preparing to put on the suit of the vigilante of Gotham since according to Variety, the interrupted filming of The Batman will be able to resume in the United Kingdom.
In addition, last March, the shooting of the film by Matt Reeves (Cloverfield, Planet of the Apes: Supremacy) had been put on hold due to the health crisis linked to the coronavirus.
Since the filming had so far taken place between London and Glasgow, Robert Pattinson had passed the confinement in the English capital.
Kristen Stewart’s ex is now preparing to get back to work.
According to its director, The Batman should look like a film noir, in which Bruce Wayne is more like a detective than a superhero.
The feature film will bring together many iconic characters from comics, played by renowned actors. Zoë Kravitz plays Selina Kyle, also known by the pseudonym Catwoman.
Colin Farrell plays Oswald Cobblepot, aka the Penguin, while Paul Dano lends his features to the enigmatic Mystery Man.
On the side of Bruce Wayne’s supporters, we find Andy Serkis in the role of Alfred Pennyworth.
Finally, Jeffrey Wright plays the policeman James Gordon. Robert Pattinson’s next challenge, the comedian is preparing to put on the famous Dark Knight’s costume for The Batman, whose filming had been interrupted due to the coronavirus.
