The latest reiteration of one of the most popular comic book characters, Batman, was met with universal acclaim when it hit theatres, earlier this year. Renowned filmmaker Matt Reeves, credited with films such as War of the Planet of the Apes and Cloverfield, has written and directed The Batman. Ben Affleck was initially attached to the project to reprise his role as the dark knight from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, with added responsibilities to write and direct the film. However, Affleck stepped away from the project in 2017, and Matt Reeves was roped in to reboot the Batman mythos for the silver screen yet again.
Robert Pattinson essays the role of a much younger version of Batman, after amassing accolades for films such as The Lighthouse, Tenet, Good Time, The Devil All the Time, and Water for Elephants. While Zoë Kravitz (Kyle/Catwoman), Jeffrey Wright (James Gordon), Andy Serkis (Alfred Pennyworth), Colin Farrell (Oswald Cobblepot/Penguin), John Turturro (Carmine Falcone), and Paul Dano (Edward Nashton/The Riddler) complete the star-studded ensemble. The plot revolves around a relatively inexperienced Batman as he investigates a series of murders in Gotham City committed by a serial killer called the Riddler. With the help of Lieutenant Gordon and the mysterious Selina Kyle, Batman must apprehend the Riddler before he kills anyone else. Batman’s investigation leads down a path of self-discovery, whilst also uncovering dark secrets about Gotham City.
The film is loosely based on the graphic novels, Mike W. Barr’s Batman: Year Two and Jeph Loeb’s Batman: The Long Halloween. Academy Award-winning cinematographer Greig Fraser and music director Michael Giacchino have brought to life the film’s stunning visuals and captivating sound design.
