Robert Pattinson has actually apparently contracted COVID-19, causing production on The Batman to halt.
As reported by Vanity Fair, Pattinson evaluated favorable for coronavirus just days after shooting resumed following a months-long shutdown, starting in March, due to the pandemic. Warner Bros. declined to confirm or reject the report, rather issuing a statement reading: “A member of The Batman production has actually evaluated positive for COVID-19, and is isolating in accordance with established protocols. Filming is temporarily stopped briefly.”
Matt Reeves’ The Batman was initially scheduled to release in June 2021, but was pushed back to October that exact same year. The story follows Pattinson as a younger, less skilled Batman browsing his duties to Gotham City in addition to previous injury. Pattinson is participated in the ensemble cast by Zoë Kravitz, Colin Farrell, Andy Serkis, Paul Dano, John Turturro, Jeffrey Wright, Peter Sarsgaard, Barry Keoghan, and Jayme Lawson.
Reeves just recently spoke about his vision for Pattinson’s more vulnerable Batman: “I simply seemed like well, what I ‘d love to do is to get a version of this Batman character where he’s not yet fully formed. Where there’s something to do in this context with who that guy would be in this world today, and to ground him in all of these damaged ways. Since at the end of the day, this person is doing all of this to deal with trauma in his past.” The director likewise validated at DC Fandome that the story will centre on Batman Year Two.
Here’s wanting Pattinson a swift healing.
