Two New Posters for ‘The Batman’ feature Robert Pattinson and Zoe Kravitz

Director Zoe Kravitz. Hence the new posters for the superhero movie.

The first image is of Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne/Batman and Kravitz’ Selina Kyle/Catwoman standing on a Gotham City rooftop staring out towards a sunset. It’s classic Batman stuff – he spends so much time posing on rooftops that you sometimes wonder how he gets any crimefighting done.

We already know from ‘The Batman’s various teasers and trailers that Pattinson’s Wayne and Kravitz’ Kyle will have a connection that is by turns flirty and confrontational. Bruce is a guarded loner wrestling with a complicated Wayne family legacy, while Kyle is eager to kick some butt. Can they work together? The history of Batman and Catwoman team-ups suggest it’s risky at best.

Following that image, we have a close-up of Batman’s cowl, his eye peering from beneath. The slightly battered look of the cowl suggests he’s seen some serious clashes, while the tagline “Unmask the truth” points to Bruce’s journey as well as that of Edward Nashton, AKA The Riddler (Paul Dano). The cryptic villain’s aim – at least according to him – is cleaning up the “cesspool” that is Gotham. And he’s even got his eye on Bruce Wayne.

Also in the cast are Scarface’-style narrative. Reeves is an executive producer on the show, with Lauren LeFranc writing the initial script.

Planet Of The Apes movies is Alfred, the loyal Wayne family butler who here is not on the best of with his headstrong young charge.

Other characters here include an ambitious District Attorney, played by John Turturro’s classic Batman mob boss Carmine Falcone.

Zack Snyder’s time in the DC Universe. His movie won’t be an origin story for Batman but is instead set in his early days as the crime-fighting hero.

Co-written (with Reeves collaborator) providing the score. The movie is set for release on March 4.
