Robert Pattinson is The Dark Knight in trailer for The Batman

August 23, 2020 by Gary Collinson

DC FanDome has certainly delivered on its promise of celebrating the DC Universe, with the virtual event offering up a host of content including trailers for Zack Snyder’s Justice League and Wonder Woman 1984, a first-look at James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad, concept art of Dwayne Johnson’s Black Adam, The Justice Society of America and Ezra Miller’s Flash with Michael Keaton’s Batman, a Shazam! 2 title reveal, and news of a live-action Static Shock movie.

Well, they may have saved the best for last, as DC has closed out the event by unveiling a teaser trailer for Matt Reeves’ The Batman, which gives us our first look at Robert Pattinson’s Batman from the upcoming reboot. Reeves has previously described his movie as “a noir-driven detective version of The Dark Knight”, and that really looks to be the case here based on this first glimpse; watch the teaser here…
