Vanity Fair says actor Robert Pattins tested positive for coronavirus – days after shooting resumes

Filming for Batman has been postponed again, just days after the coronavirus lockdown resumed.

Pause in the shooting of the film, confirmed by Warner Bros., as lead actor Robert Pattins has tested positive for the virus, according to U.S.

Warner Bros. said members of the production team had self-isolation but did not say who.

Shooting began in Glasgow earlier this year, but was halted due to an epidemic.

A spokesman for the studio said: “A member of The Batman Productions has tested positive for the Covid-19, and is separating it according to established protocols. Filming has been temporarily suspended.”

Vanity Fair said British actor Pattinson, 34, was infected with the virus days after the shooting resumed near London after a six-month delay.
