Armie's is done. No chance. Pattinson's coming to save us
While a deal has not yet been made and it is unclear if there is an offer on the table, Robert Pattinson is a top contender play Batman in Matt Reeves' DC movie for Warner Bros.
It is also unclear who else is on Reeves' short list, other names that have been floated alongside Pattinson's were Armie Hammer, Nicholas Hoult and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.
would it be too much to ask for robert to at least match afflecks size?With the pics that Reeves seems to favor for Batman, lots of you are going to be disappointed by his physique

Been a fan since twilight tho.

Anyways I don't mind him but Armie was the one I really wanted.
As soon as that far from home casting news came out, i knew he would never be bat.Honestly, I think most of my disappointment stems from the fact that it's not Gyllenhaal... He was my dream casting. I have so much faith in Reeves though, so it really doesn't matter who ends up wearing the cowl.
Twilight is barely a footnote in Pattinson's filmography at this point, he moved far beyond it. He has been doing great work for nearly a decade straight.I don't mind Robert but I'd rather have Armie. If they put Pattinson in there, he needs to gain another 60 pounds... he broods well too.
But damn I hated Twilight.
The only thing I saw him in kinda recently was The Rover, which was decent. Not saying he's a bad actor but he just reminds me of Twilight and my hatred for it.Twilight is barely a footnote in Pattinson's filmography at this point, he moved far beyond it.

Pattinson is a far better actor than anyone else in talks. Brilliant choice.
I agree. He's good.
Fine with Pattinson, but can't get over the idea of starting all over again with a younger Batman. Had the chance to hit the ground running on the Bat Family before with BeastFleck. Sucks...
How will they even handle that? The Flashpoint reset didn't end up happening. So is Reeves Batman a reboot, a prequel a la Wonder Woman, standalone, or what?
Mmkay y'all.
If it's Pattinson, are we going with Patman or Battinson?
From what I remember, rumors suggested it's a prequel set about 15 years before BVS when Bruce had only been Batman for a few years.
I mean, I don't imagine they WOULD acknowledge the actor change. Batman is just a character, and the actor portraying him has changed.It'd be hilarious if the next time Batman meets the Justice League everyone pretends Batfleck didn't exist. lol

They already basically changed the tone of the character completely from BvS to Justice League.It's more than an actor change, this isn't like swapping Affleck for Clint Eastwood grisly old Batman.

Bus-TEE called it. Pattinson has got this in the bag. I'm down.
