Matt Reeves Hints At Batman: Year One Connection

Matt Reeves took to Twitter yesterday to celebrate the birthday of Bruce Wayne, who is portrayed by Robert Pattinson (The Lighthouse) in Reeves’ upcoming The Batman, and in doing so shared a panel from the iconic comic story arc “Year One.”

With his film reportedly set to explore the hero in his younger years, this Tweet appears to be Reeves potentially hinting at a connection between Frank Miller’s story and the film.

Now that filming has begun on Warner Bros.’ The Batman, director Matt Reeves has posted an official camera test revealing Robert Pattinson’s Batman for the first time!

Warner Bros. Pictures has confirmed all of the cast and crew for the film. Starring alongside Robert Pattinson’s Batman/Bruce Wayne is Zoë Kravitz (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald, Mad Max: Fury Road) as Selina Kyle; Paul Dano (Love & Mercy, 12 Years a Slave) as Edward Nashton; Jeffrey Wright (the Hunger Games films) as the GCPD’s James Gordon; John Turturro (the Transformers films) as Carmine Falcone; Peter Sarsgaard (The Magnificent Seven, Black Mass) as Gotham D.A. Gil Colson; Jayme Lawson (Farewell Amor) as mayoral candidate Bella Reál; with Andy Serkis (the Planet of the Apes films, Black Panther) as Alfred; and Colin Farrell (Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Dumbo) as Oswald Cobblepot.

Reeves and Dylan Clark (the Planet of the Apes films) are producing the film, with Simon Emanuel, Michael E. Uslan, Walter Hamada and Chantal Nong Vo serving as executive producers.

Reeves’ behind-the-scenes creative team includes Oscar-nominated director of photography Greig Fraser (Lion, Dune); his Planet of the Apes production designer, James Chinlund; editors William Hoy (the Planet of the Apes films) and Tyler Nelson (Rememory); and Oscar-winning VFX supervisor Dan Lemmon (The Jungle Book); Oscar-nominated SFX supervisor Dominic Tuohy (1917, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker).

Also on board are Oscar-nominated sound mixer Stuart Wilson (1917, the Star Wars franchise); Oscar-winning costume designer Jacqueline Durran (1917, Little Women, Anna Karenina) and costume designers Glyn Dillon (the Star Wars franchise) and David Crossman (1917, the Star Wars franchise); hair designer Zoe Tahir (No Time to Die, Spectre); and Oscar-nominated makeup designer Naomi Donne (1917). As was previously confirmed, Michael Giacchino (Cloverfield, Let Me In, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) will be composing the score for the film.

The Batman opens in theaters on June 25, 2021.




Well there you have it folks the Sparkly Vampire will be the new Batman, maybe they will put sequined underwear on him. Or better yet get Kristen Stewart to star as his love interest maybe in the role of Vicki Vale, how great would that be...

He's a terrible choice in my opinion as he is too wimpy looking to be a badass superhero crime fighter, he was not even intimidating as a vampire hell even a bat is scary as a vampire.

Wait. Robert Pattinson, as in the Twilight vampire guy? It's kind of hard to imagine him as Batman! He is not exactly what I would call brawny, or someone who looks like he could kick serious butt. Sparkly Vampire is right. I just can't see him as Batman.  :-]

The cast is so wrong that this will be the first Batman movie I will not see. It's doomed to fail, so they can cast Kristen Stewart for all I care, lol
