The new vision of Matt Reeves for The Batman star Robert Pattinson as young Caped Crusader. There’s a lot of anticipation for the new DC movie, and fans do not want to be disappointed as they were with Justice League en Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice.
But there is hope that Reeves’ vision will bring some excitement to Gotham. And according to screenwriter Mattson Tomlin, fans will ‘lose their sense’ when they watch the new DC movie.
What we know about ‘The Batman’
Most details on the upcoming The Batman film are kept under wraps. However, there are a few casting details that have been confirmed.
The film – which is written, produced and directed by Matt Reeves, alongside co-writer Mattson Tomlin – will feature Robert Pattinson as the new Bruce Wayne from the DCEU. Zoë Kravitz is set to play Selina Kyle, aka Catwoman.

Paul Dano and Colin Farrell will assume villainous roles as the Riddler and Penguin. En Westworld star Jeffrey Wright will be seen as Commissioner Gordon.
The new film will focus on the early years of Batman as the brooding superhero of Gotham. It is scheduled for a premiere in October 2021.
‘The Batman’ production was stopped due to COVID-19
Like most film and TV projects, The Batman was forced to close production due to COVID-19 safety measures. But now, as studios begin to open, the crew of the film brings production indoors. When asked about moving his former outdoor locations to the indoor studio, co-author Mattson Tomlin told Comic Book that the change would not affect the aesthetics or tone of the film.
“I mean, the movie is the movie, and I think the plan right now is to execute that vision,” Tomlin explained. ‘They were pretty much ways to shoot like it was, so it’s just how you end up safe? How do you make sure everyone can get up for work and then go home and that everything is in order? ”
Screenwriter Mattson Tomlin promises to deliver Matt Reeves’ vision
There rides a lot on it The Batman. To the Justice League debacle and Ben Affleck stepping out of the role early, fans are counting on this film to rekindle their passion for the beloved superhero.
Tomlin – who’s fresh from the success of his Netflix movie, Project power – co-wrote the film with Reeves. And when he spoke to Forbes, he promised that this new vision will keep fans away.
“I feel like I owe so much to Matt Reeves, I think of him as my filmmaker at this point,” Tomlin said. ‘He’s such a talented director and writer and for me to be a part of that process the little way I was, it’s still a complete dream. Pound for pound, he continues to make me a better writer day in and day out. I’m so excited about what he’s doing with that movie. I think people will lose their minds. ”
Reeves is also working on a Gotham-based police drama for HBO Max. The untitled series will be set in the same universe as the movie. Hopefully the writer / director’s vision will bring some life back to Gotham and the DCEU.
