There’s a new Batman in Gotham. After the coronavirus pandemic delayed the premiere of the DC blockbuster from its original 2021 release date, fans of the superhero franchise will meet the next Bruce Wayne on screen, with Robert Pattinson stepping into the iconic bat suit for the first time in the The Batman.

One of the year’s most-anticipated movie releases, The Batman is now playing in theaters across the country, complete with Pattinson’s grittier take on the caped crusader. The Matt Reeves-directed film includes a cast of familiar Batman characters, including Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle (Catwoman), Jeffrey Wright (Commissioner Gordon), Colin Farrell (Penguin), and Paul Dano (the Riddler).
