Zoë Kravitz is giving DC Comics fans another teaser of what to expect from Robert Pattinson as he takes on the role of the Caped Crusader in The Batman.
Kravitz, who plays Catwoman in the upcoming superhero film set in Gotham City, has praised Pattinson’s performance and dedication to the titular character. Variety recently reported on what Kravitz thinks of her co-star’s performance. She shares, “Rob is perfect for this role. He was incredible. His transformation was out of this world.” Kravitz also describes working with the director adding, “Matt Reeves has a lot of heart, and he cares so much for these characters. I’m just very excited for him to be able to go on vacation because he deserves it. I hope the fans love it because we put a lot of work into this.”
In addition to Kravitz’s comments, Warner Bros. recently released a new synopsis giving fans a deeper understanding of the forthcoming plotline. The new synopsis reveals how Pattinson’s rendition of Batman differs from the previous ones. While he is well into his second year as the vigilante, Batman is set to deal with Riddler’s target towards highest class citizens in Gotham. The synopsis reads,
Two years of stalking the streets as the Batman (Robert Pattinson), striking fear into the hearts of criminals, has led Bruce Wayne deep into the shadows of Gotham City. With only a few trusted allies — Alfred Pennyworth (Andy Serkis), Lt. James Gordon (Jeffrey Wright) — amongst the city’s corrupt network of officials and high-profile figures, the lone vigilante has established himself as the sole embodiment of vengeance amongst his fellow citizens.
When a killer targets Gotham’s elite with a series of sadistic machinations, a trail of cryptic clues sends the World’s Greatest Detective on an investigation into the underworld, where he encounters such characters as Selina Kyle/aka Catwoman (Zoë Kravitz), Oswald Cobblepot/aka the Penguin (Colin Farrell), Carmine Falcone (John Turturro), and Edward Nashton/aka the Riddler (Paul Dano). As the evidence begins to lead closer to home and the scale of the perpetrator’s plans becomes clear, Batman must forge new relationships, unmask the culprit, and bring justice to the abuse of power and corruption that has long plagued Gotham City.
The Batman hits theaters on March 4, 2022.
