Teaser Trailer Revealed For ‘The Batman’

As promised during the massive DC Fandome event director Matt Reeves shared the first teaser trailer for the upcoming film “The Batman” starring Robert Pattinson taking on the role of the caped crusader. Fans began sharing their sentiments regarding the trailer via social media immediately upon its release and so far the feedback looks to be positive. Many seem pleased with the overall grittiness and dark theme that was showcased in the nearly two-minute trailer. We see Pattinson’s Batman paired up with his police commissioner comrade James Gordon played by actor Jeffrey Wright to solve a very dark and disturbing murder mystery. We also caught our first glimpse of Catwoman aka Selina Kyle played by Zoe Kravitz. Many fans also commented on the style of the new Batmobile, which still carries a sleek look and features what appear to be blueish tinted flame boosters in the back. We once again seen Gotham City riddled with criminals and of course where would a Batman film be without a good ol’ torrential downpour and a sinister soundtrack, as the trailer is set …

Colin Farrell Rumored To Be In Negotiations To Play Penguin In Upcoming ‘Batman’ Film

We can hardly contain our excitement for all the casting news and rumors that are popping up for Matt Reeve’s upcoming “Batman” film. We have now learned that actor Colin Farrell is rumored to be in negotiations to portray Penguin in the film. It is also rumored that actor Andy Serkis will be taking on the role of Alfred. If casting works out then these two will be joining Robert Pattinson as Batman, Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman, Paul Dano as Mystery Man and Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon. Filming is scheduled to start at the end of the year or in early 2020. We can only imagine that this remarkable cast will continue to grow and we certainly hope that negotiations will be worked out with both Farrell and Serkis as they will be excellent additions to this star-studded cast. It will be fantastic to see Farrell in the role of a villain once again, as we have not seen that side of him since his role in “Daredevil” opposite Ben Affleck.
