A new set video from The Batman showcases Batman's (Robert Pattinson) Batcycle and what appears to be Catwoman's (Zoë Kravitz) Catcycle.The video comes courtesy of DR Movie News and shows Bruce Wayne and Selina Kyle riding down a Gotham City road. As they drive out of the camera's view, various fans can be seen recording the footage as well.
The video comes just a day after set photos from what appears to be a funeral scene leaked online. Those photos gave the best look yet at Colin Farrell's Penguin and also included clear shots of Pattinson, Kravitz and John Turturro's Carmine Falcone.
The photos and videos come a few weeks after production resumed on The Batman following a two-week hiatus after Robert Pattinson tested positive for COVID-19 (coronavirus). The movie had previously shut down production in March due to the virus. These delays pushed the film from June 25, 2021, to Oct. 1, 2021, to March 4, 2022.
The Batman is not the only DC film to be delayed to the coronavirus. The Flash starring Ezra Miller moved from June 3, 2022 to Nov. 4, 2022, which was previously Shazam!: Fury of the Gods' date. The Zachary Levi sequel will now arrive on June 2, 2023. Finally, Dwayne Johnson's Black Adam went from debuting on Dec. 22, 2021 to not having a release date at all.
However, The Batman will not take place in the same universe as The Flash, Shazam!: Fury of the Gods and Black Adam. "There is that one Earth, that greater Earth with this existing Justice League and another that's sort of happening with that Year Two Batman, Walter Hamada, president of DC Films, said at DC FanDome earlier this year.
Pattinson is one of the many actors who will portray the Dark Knight on the big screen over the next few years. Michael Keaton will reprise his role as Bruce Wayne from 1989's Batman for the upcoming The Flash. Ben Affleck, who portrays Batman in Suicide Squad, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League, will also cameo in The Flash in what is expected to be his last appearance as the character.
Directed by Matt Reeves and written by Reeves and Mattson Tomlin, The Batman stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, Jeffrey Wright as James Gordon, Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin, Paul Dano as Edward Nashton/The Riddler, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone and Peter Sarsgaard as District Attorney Gil Colson. The film arrives in theaters March 4, 2022.
