Robert Pattinson made “ambient electronic music” while suited up as Batman

Robert Pattinson flashes his handsome smile while attending a fan screening of his new movie The Batman.

Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticWhere do you go after “The Dark Knight”? Ben Affleck blew it, and even Christopher Nolan, who brought unprecedented levels of realism and gravitas to that franchise-best Batman saga, couldn’t improve on what he’d created in his 2012 sequel. So what is “Cloverfield” director Matt Reeves’ strategy? Answer: Go darker than “The Dark Knight,” deadlier than “No Time to Die” and longer than “Dune” with a serious-minded Batman stand-alone of his own.

Robert Pattinson isn’t morally opposed to superhero films. But he wasn’t exactly seeking them out before “The Batman” came along, either.The 35-year-old who seemed to emerge as a fully formed superstar in mega franchises like “Harry Potter” and “Twilight” has for the past decade or so found himself chasing edgier fare, smaller movies with interesting directors and roles where he could stretch and disappear behind an archaic New England accent, as in “The Lighthouse,” the unkempt beard of an explorer in “The Lost City of Z” or the shock of messily bleached hair that accompanies him on a never-ending chase in “Good Time,” to name a few.The strange thing is that it was “Good Time,” a $2 million movie, and its frenetic, freefall energy that convinced director Matt Reeves that Pattinson needed to be his Batman.

Outside of what Zack Snyder tried to do with his “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” and “Justice League” films, we never get to see a film version of Batman interact with a bunch of different superheroes in his solo films.

Robert Pattinson has revealed that he was asked to change his original Batman voice.The actor, who makes his debut as the caped crusader in The Batman, explained on Jimmy Kimmel Live! how he originally wanted to do something “radically different” from his predecessors.Speaking on the show, Pattinson said: “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’.“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 actor later discovered that Christian Bale also attempted to subvert expectations with his original Batman voice for Batman Begins, before it was later changed. “If you listen to the first Batman Begins teaser trailer, you can hear the original voice,” Pattinson said. “I only found this out a couple of weeks ago.”In The Batman, directed by Matt Reeves (Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes), Pattinson stars alongside Paul Dano as The Riddler, Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth and Jeffrey Wright as James Gordon.Pattinson recently said he’s discussed the idea of doing a trilogy of films with Reeves.

But if the actor has anything to say about it, there’s plenty more where that came from.

nearly three hours long, it’s only the beginning of the story as far as star Robert Pattinson sees it.The actor makes his debut as Bruce Wayne in the new reboot co-written and directed by Matt Reeves, and he’s made clear that he’s ready to play Batman “as many times as people want to see it.” Speaking with Fandango, Pattinson teased the notion of making a new trio of Batman films with Reeves: “I’ve talked to Matt about the idea of doing a trilogy, and that would be wonderful. I really, really enjoyed the process and it’s such a fun character to play.”Paul Dano, who plays The Riddler in the new film, added during the same interview, “There’s so much room for this Batman to grow, too,” while co-star Colin Farrell (who plays The Penguin) echoed that sentiment by saying, “I want to see the evolution of Bruce Wayne.”Pattinson said in December he had already “mapped out” the psychology of where his character might go in future films, but these new comments affirm he’s eager to continue his partnership with Reeves on future installments.“The Batman” has been teased as a “Year Two” story for the Caped Crusader, in reference to the iconic comic book “Batman: Year One.” This story picks up in Bruce’s second year of being Batman, where it’s not quite an origin story but he’s not quite an expert yet either.
