Okay, all of that stuff we were just saying about minimalism and stark character design? Give us a minute, we may be rethinking that.
This piece by @ultraraw26 gives us three for the price of one, and while we're not sure how noir-ish it looks, it's so awesome that it just doesn't really matter. The design of Robert Pattinson's Dark Knight is unique, severe, and imposing; the look of Zoë Kravitz's Catwoman is as cool as any of the tons of designs that have surfaced online; and the Riddler's look is traditional, but not corny, and actually somewhat reminiscent of old-school gangsters. The only announced cast member missing here is Jeffrey Wright's Jim Gordon, although one could certainly argue that simply sticking Mr. Wright in the middle of this craziness in a rumpled suit might have lessened the dramatic effect.
It's always fun to see how many different, equally awesome directions there are for filmmakers to take, and it's a reminder of just how hard Reeves' job really is. But we have a feeling that The Batman is very safe in his hands; it looks as if casting may be starting to pick up steam, and you can rest assured we'll fill you in on all the news to come. The flick hits the big screen on June 25, 2021.
