‘The Batman’: Watch The Grim First Clip, Plus Robert Pattinson Says He Was “Joking” About Not Working Out For The Role

WWE ’s most unstoppable star ever with another big win at Elimination Chamber. The Tribal Chief has been WWE Universal Champion for well over 500 days and is already in the midst of one of the strongly booked title runs the company has ever seen.That continued in Saudi Arabia following Reigns’ decisive victory over the legend Goldberg.Many had questioned going into the show as to whether the WCW icon would be suitable opposition for Reigns at this stage.Even at this point in what must be the twilight of the veteran’s career, however, the emphatic nature of the win for the champ – via a Guillotine choke that left Goldberg out cold – was sobering.Once again Reigns stood dominant in the ring as he now heads to WrestleMania to face Brock Lesnar in what will now be a title vs title match following The Beast’s capturing of the WWE title in Elimination Chamber match.Quite why Lesnar needed to win January’s Royal Rumble to punch his ticket to WrestleMania when a clash with Reigns was in the making seems a little odd and perhaps wasteful, especially after this result.You can't help but wonder if there's an alternate WWE title plan with two other stars involved - who will now miss out on a marquee match - that's now in tatters.There’s no denying it’ll be a titanic clash.

Panic at the Batcave? When the first trailer for Matt Reeves’ “The Batman” dropped in August 2020, DC fans went wild over Robert Pattinson’s black eyeliner, which they dubbed deliciously “emo.” Now, more than a year on, the director has finally addressed the caped crusader’s makeup in an interview with Esquire. “You can’t wear a cowl and not wear that,” the 55-year-old “Cloverfield” director argued of Batman’s “Spiderman 3”-esque countenance.

The debut trailer for The Batman featured something many fans were not expecting: Robert Pattinson‘s caped crusader wearing quite a bit of eyeliner that had run down his face.

The Batman was inspired by Kurt Cobain, directly pointing to the late Nirvana frontman’s struggles with drug addiction.In a new interview with Esquire, Reeves – who wrote, directed and produced the forthcoming superhero film – explained that he was first drawn to Nirvana in the early stages of the film’s development, citing ‘Nevermind’ cut ‘Something In The Way’ (which appears in the first trailer for The Batman) as a particular source of inspiration.He said the track’s thematic basis was “part of the voice of [Batman’s] character”, musing: “When I considered, ‘How do you do Bruce Wayne in a way that hasn’t been seen before?’ I started thinking, ‘What if some tragedy happened [ie: Wayne sees his parents murdered] and this guy becomes so reclusive, we don’t know what he’s doing? Is this guy some kind of wayward, reckless, drug addict?’“And the truth is that he is a kind of drug addict. His drug is his addiction to this drive for revenge.

“The Batman” has a little Kurt Cobain to it.

Filmmaker Matt Reeves and Warner Bros. are obviously going for it with their new iteration of the caped crusader, called, simply, “The Batman.” For one, it’s going to be nearly three hours long, that’s confirmed and bold as hell, it’s not at all connected to the current cinematic DC Universe, and The Batman is a younger version played by Robert Pattinson.
