Matt Reevesin ohjaama elokuva The Batman pitäisi saapua katsottavaksi maaliskuun alussa, ja pääosassa hupun alla nähdään Robert Pattinson. Miestä haastatteli Total Film. Pattinsonin mukaan Batman on friikki.
"I was aiming for quite different stuff. Obviously, it's basically the jewel in the crown, of the parts you can really get as an actor. But I'd never really thought I was anywhere close to doing it, and especially with the other parts I was attracted to at the time."
"I just kept obsessively checking up on it for the next year or so. Even my agents were like, 'Oh, interesting. I thought you only wanted to play total freaks?' And I was like, 'He is a freak!'"
Pattinson tunnustautuu Batmanin faniksi, ja on nähnyt kaikki hahmosta tehdyt elokuvat. Hän ei ole tehnyt vastaavaa käsittelyä muille supersankareille.
"Out of all the comic-book characters and that kind of movie, I've seen every single one of the movies in the cinema, which I can't really say I've done for any other series. I was always really looking forward to them coming out. There was the combination of just being so attracted to it, but also feeling like it'd had a lot of movies made about it, and none of them are bad movies. People kind of shit on some of them, but they're not actually bad. They all kind of completely achieve what they set out to achieve, and they're all really interesting, according to their time and place. I don't know. I just had a weird instinct about it. But I've always loved the character."
