New Set Photos and Video From THE BATMAN Features Batman, Catwoman, and Gotham City
The Batman is currently shooting in Chicago and some new photos and video from the set of the film have been shared on social media. These sneak peeks include Batman and Catwoman riding around on their motorcycles and some of the set decorations for Gotham City.
Some of the posters seen on the set of this Instagram page reference GothCorp, which is the corporation Mr. Freeze worked for. There’s also one for Ace Chemicals, and something called ‘Delicious Poison’.
The Batman will tell a dark noir-style film that will lean into Batman in his detective mode. Director Matt Reeves said that it’s going to tell a deep and psychological story. This will be a “year two” story for Batman that acknowledges his origin and how it’s still something that he’s “majorly struggling” with.
There will be a series of murders and crimes that start taking place in Gotham and as Batman investigates those things, they begin to reveal the darkness of Gotham City to him.
The film stars Robert Pattinson as The Dark Knight, Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman, Andy Serkis as Alfred, Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot/Penguin, Paul Dano as Edward Nashton/The Riddler, Jayme Lawson as Bella Reál, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, and Peter Sarsgaard as Gil Colson. Gil Perez-Abraham (Orange is the New Black), Charlie Carver (Teen Wolf), and Max Carver have also been cast in undisclosed roles.
The Batman is now scheduled to hit theaters on March 4th, 2022.
