Watch Joker's Deleted Scene in THE BATMAN with Commentary From Director Matt Reeves
Warner Bros. has released a new version of that deleted scene from The Batman featuring Robert Pattinson’s Batman talking to Barry Keoghan’s The Joker in Arkham Asylum. This latest version features commentary from director Matt Reeves.
One of the things that I found interesting was what Reeves had to say about Joker’s new look and how his disfigured face isn’t scarred from acid, he was scarred from birth. He shared: "The Joker would have been marked from childhood."
He added that his inspiration for the character was Conrad Veidt's The Man Who Laughs with a dash of The Elephant Man. Reeves explains that the Joker was born with a horrifying smile on his face, which affected the way he looked at the world from the way others around him were looking at him, saying "he was a terrifying freak since he was a child."
