A new version of Robin might be in Matt Reeves’ The Batman. It was finally confirmed Robert Pattison will take on the role of the Dark Knight in the upcoming movie, taking over for Ben Affleck who previously played the superhero.
Robin has been featured in the Batman franchise more than once, with Chris O’Donnell playing the character in Batman Forever and Batman & Robin, being the most notable.
So far, the reaction to Robert Pattinson taking on the lead in The Batman has mostly been seen as a good thing by fans.
Even with the casting of Robert Pattinson, there is still a lot that we do not know about The Batman. Matt Reeves has teased over the years that he wants to take the character back to his detective roots and by the casting, it is going to be a younger version of Batman, which had also been rumored for years.
