After the commercial, the promo art and the photos of the last few days, let’s take another look at the characters of The Batman thanks to six new images.
Four are taken directly from the film, and portray Batman ( Robert Pattinson ) in the company of both Catwoman ( Zöe Kravitz ) and Jim Gordon ( Jeffrey Wright ). In the other two we can see Oswald Cobblepot ( Colin Farrell ) and Edward Nashton ( Paul Dano ), respectively the Penguin and the Riddler .
The other two are promotional photos that show the two “bad guys”. That of the Riddler allows us to observe in detail his costume, very different from the comics, also because the director Matt Reeves was inspired by the famous Zodiac Killer.
You will find them below, but first I remind you that The Batman will be released on March 3, 2022 in Italian cinemas.
