The Dark Knight is making his return. Robert Pattinson is taking over the cowl from Ben Affleck, putting a younger spin on the iconic character for director Matt Reeves in The Batman.
After establishing a new Caped Crusader in Justice League, Warner Bros. is ready to start fresh. They’ve had a number of recent hits with Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, Zachary Levi’s Shazam!, and Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman. The upcoming slate of DC superhero movies are expected to have fewer connections to one other than the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Warner Bros. is focused on making strong films for each character instead.
