Los Angeles: Filmmaker Matt Reeves's The Batman brought the curtains down on 2021 DC FanDome as he unveiled an explosive and action-packed trailer for Robert Pattinson-starrer superhero movie. The online fan event was a loaded affair with DC providing glimpses at many of its marquee titles, including Black Adam, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom and Peacemaker series.
The new trailer offers more details about the film's story, Pattinson's Batman, Zoe Kravitz's Catwoman and many other major characters. It promises a dark and extravagantly violent iteration of the iconic superhero, which has been previously played by the likes of Michael Keaton, George Clooney, Christina Bale and Ben Affleck.
The trailer gives a glimpse at Paul Dano's The Riddler, although the character's face was kept hidden. There were plenty of moments where Pattinson was seen taking on his adversaries in hand to hand combat, and in one scene, he walks into a room while constant bullet fire.
Pattinson and Kravitz joined Reeves for a panel discussion before the release of the trailer. Pattinson said this version of the Caped Crusader is a person who is a "bit out of control".
"He doesn't have as much control over his personality, like the delineation between when he's Batman and when he's Bruce is not so clear... In other kinds of iterations, he really knows what he's doing, when he's putting on the cowl," the actor said.
