The Batman.The actor is set to star in Matt Reeves’ new DC film about the caped crusader next month opposite Robert Pattinson as Batman/Bruce Wayne.“There were some nights around that I probably didn’t sleep as well as I would’ve wanted to just because it was a little hard to come down from this character,” Dano told Entertainment Weekly, discussing a specific scene with Peter Sarsgaard’s character Gil Colson.“It takes a lot of energy to get there. And so you almost have to sustain it once you’re there because going up and down is kind of hard.”Dano went on to describe his experience covering himself in plastic wrap to get into character, as the Riddler would try to avoid leaving DNA evidence at his crime scenes.“My head was just throbbing with heat,” Dano said, describing the moment he would take off the mask.
“I went home that night, after the first full day in that, and I almost couldn’t sleep because I was scared of what was happening to my head.”He added: “It was like compressed from the sweat and the heat and the lack of oxygen. It was a crazy feeling.” Meanwhile, Pattinson revealed recently that he was asked to change his “absolutely atrocious” Batman voice when he was first cast.“Everyone does this kind of gruff, gravelly thing, and I’m like, ‘I’m going to do the opposite, I’m going to go really whispery,'” he said.“And I tried to do it for like the first two weeks and it just looked absolutely atrocious, and they told me to stop doing it.”The Batman is released in cinemas globally on March 4.

J. Kim Murphy With no major new wide releases for the weekend, Warner Bros.’ “The Batman” has an easy path to repeating its top performance at the domestic box office.
It seems like Paul Dano‘s Riddler costume has landed him in some hot water!
**Spoilers for “The Batman” below. You’ve been warned.** For those who have seen “The Batman” in theaters, you are probably aware there isn’t some grand post-credits scene that teases what’s to come in the franchise.
Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” includes a haunting cackle that has fans speculating about sequels with Robert Pattinson as the Caped Crusader — and which Gotham villains he might be up against.(Warning: This article contains spoilers for “The Batman.”)Listed in credits as “Unseen Arkham Prisoner” in the film, out Friday, Barry Keoghan played a fellow jailbird to Paul Dano’s The Riddler, who gets thrown in the slammer at Arkham Asylum.When Riddler asked who the mysterious convict hiding in the shadows of the next cell is, Keoghan cryptically responded, “Well, that’s the question.”And it was certainly the question on fans’ minds, with many speculating the “Dunkirk” actor’s brief cameo was The Joker, especially since his grinning face was largely hidden.Director Reeves was cryptic about who exactly Keoghan, 29, played, but alluded that viral speculation about The Joker sneak peek was correct.“He’s who you think he is,” Reeves told press last month, Insider reported. “I would say the thing about the movie is that it isn’t a Batman origin story, but it is the origin story of every rogues’ gallery character that you come across.
The Batman.The actor appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon (March 2) ahead of the film’s release, when the host listed preparations he’d make if he was cast as Selina Kyle.“I would study cats,” said Fallon, to which Kravitz replied: “I did that.”Fallon then suggested drinking milk out of a bowl, to which Kravitz seemingly joked: “I did that. I did.”Asked if she actually drank milk from a bowl, Kravitz added: “Maybe.
J. Kim Murphy The cultural landscape has reached a state where a new comic book adaptation is unleashed on the public practically every other week, yet the genre can still struggle to offer truly memorable villains for its marquee heroes to battle.That’s almost never been a problem for “Batman” though; the franchise has arguably been defined more by its rogues gallery than by Batman himself, with most of the antagonist roles offering the opportunity for actors to capture oversized egos and laissez-faire shtick.With this Friday’s release of Matt Reeves’ “The Batman,” the pantheon of villains that the Caped Crusader has fought on the big screen will see three new arrivals: Colin Farrell’s Penguin, Zoë Kravitz’s Catwoman and Paul Dano’s Riddler.
Paul Dano was ready to commit to his first-ever big-budget movie role in “The Batman”.
The Batman‘s run time has been revealed and it has the third longest running time of any superhero movie ever made.
Matt Reeves was terrified. In September 2020, the director had just returned to filming on “The Batman,” Warner Bros.’ latest reboot of the studio’s multibillion-dollar superhero franchise, after a six-month break due to the pandemic.
Paul Dano is offering some advice to fans who want to recreate his Riddler costume from The Batman.
Playing the Riddler was difficult in some unexpected ways for Paul Dano.
EastEnders actor Alex Ferns, who played the notoriously nasty Trevor Morgan on the BBC soap, is barely recognisable more than 20 years later in the highly-anticipated film The Batman.The role will see the 53 year old Scottish actor taking on the pivotal character of Commissioner Pete Savage in the latest offering in the DC franchise. Acting alongside Twilight's Robert Pattinson as the masked crusader, Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle – also known as the Catwoman – and the likes of Colin Farrell and Paul Dano in major roles, Alex is a far cry from his time in Walford.
Paul Dano’s Riddler is ’s main villain in director Matt Reeves’ stunning take on the superhero, it’s Colin Farrell who steals the show as the Penguin. The 45-year-old actor, who is completely unrecognizable as the formidable crime figure, makes use of every second he’s on screen, bringing the laughs and gravitas to the three-hour epic about a serial killer who threatens to upend the status quo of Gotham with shocking revelations about who actually runs the city.
Unforgettable images—the coned, fiery blue flames of the Batmobile, bodies thrashing, enveloped in shadows, the brailed scars crawling across Robert Pattinson’s muscled back—converge in Matt Reeves’ three-hour, noir-infused epic “The Batman.” Ever since Bob Kane and Bill Finger created him in 1939, the philanthropist playboy by day, Caped Crusader by night, has signified isolation, grief, trauma — vengeance. Over the decades, television and cinematic incarnations, projected through the personalities of the actors who’ve portrayed him, have amplified those traits through both campy and brooding means.
Ben Affleck and now Robert Pattison might, the metropolis gets worse and worse.Running time: 175 minutes. Rated PG-13 (strong violent and disturbing content, drug content, strong language, and some suggestive material.) In theaters March 4.In the latest perfunctory film, “The Batman,” Gotham is bleaker than ever. Too bleak, if you ask me.
Batman has descended upon Google search pages ahead of The Batman’s release next week.On Google Search (desktop or mobile), searches for “Bruce Wayne”, “Gotham City” or “Bat-Signal” will show an animated yellow Bat-signal icon. Click the icon and the screen will dim, as his famous beacon summons Batman who swings across the screen with a grappling hook.A spokesperson for Google (via Variety) has said the Easter egg wasn’t actually sponsored by Warner Bros. for The Batman’s release, but they were “aware and supportive”.
