Warner Bros/DC’s The Batman had been set for release on October 1st, 2021, but we’ve learned tonight that the hotly anticipated film has now been bumped clear into 2022.
From director Matt Reeves, The Batman will now release March 4, 2022.
The film has faced both production stoppages and release date delays due to the ongoing pandemic, and had been originally scheduled to be released on June 25th, 2021.
Robert Pattinson is of course playing Batman/Bruce Wayne for this particular take on the character, with Paul Dano as Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon, Zoe Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, Colin Farrell as Penguin, and John Turturro as Carmine Falcone. Jayme Lawson and Peter Sarsgaard will also star.
