The Riddler crashes a funeral in new clip from The Batman
By Dan Selcke
Warner Bros. is trying its hand again at rebooting the ever-popular Batman franchise. This time it’s director Matt Reeves behind the camera and Twilight veteran Robert Pattinson under the cowl. The new movie, simply called The Batman, looks like it will take things back to the Christopher Nolan era, with a story that’s grim and dark but still somewhat grounded in reality.
Our villain (well, our main one) is the Riddler, who’s sometimes considered a bit of a joke in Batman’s rogues gallery but here is reimagined as a spooky, serial killer-esque mastermind causing chaos in Gotham City.
In a new clip, the Riddler crashes a funeral, with deadly results. Watch below:
Is that the Riddler up in the gallery watching the scene unfold? Again I say: spooky.
The Batman release date and advance tickets
Apparently this clip has been floating around the internet for a while, so Matt Reeves just decided to release it so at least we could all see it in high quality.
We also get a look at how Robert Pattinson will play Bruce Wayne: he looks, gloomy, haunted and a little angry, which is definitely a legitimate way to go.
The Batman swoops in theaters on March 4. Advance tickets go on sale this Wednesday.
