‘The Batman’ Will Explore The Detective Side Of The Caped Crusader: Robert Pattinson
Los Angeles, Jan 22: Robert Pattinson has revealed that the much-anticipated movie ”The Batman” shall explore the detective persona of the Caped Crusader.
During a recent conversation with Movie Maker Magazine, the actor reflected on his first meeting with the film’s director Matt Reeves and on how he managed to rope in the star.
The “Tenet” actor recalled, “In the first meeting, he was saying, we want to lean into the ‘world’s greatest detective aspect,’ and be a detective noir movie.”
“You know, normally when directors say that, they just do like a mood board, and it’s just about the imagery. But I read the script, and it is! It’s a detective movie,” he continued.
“It happens all the time in the graphic novels, but it’s always kind of on the backburner in the movies,” added Pattinson.
The upcoming Dark Knight movie is expected to be a shade different from the previous instalments as its plot is heavily probing into the detective side of the DC vigilante along with some fierce and huge action cuts.
“The Batman” seeks to explore a younger Bruce Wayne balancing his life in the daily world and his alter ego in a raw and gritty portrayal of the hero who seeks to uncover the mystery of “The Riddler”, a serial killer who is terrorizing Gotham whilst also coming to the realization that his own rage has made him no better than the criminals he is hunting.
The movie is scheduled to hit the big screen on March 4, 2022.
