Robert Pattinson has admitted that his desire to play Batman shocked his agents, who had assumed that the actor only wanted to portray “total freaks”.
The British actor will play the caped crusader in Matt Reeves’s forthcoming film – titled The Batman – which also stars Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright, Paul Dano, and Zoe Kravitz.
The Batman is released in UK cinemas on 4 March.
Last week, the actor clarified a joke he made about his Batman role back in 2020 that “really came back to haunt me”.
