DC Fandome took place this weekend, a virtual Comic Con-style presentation to promote upcoming DC Comics movies, and the content has been pretty phenomenal. One of the standout presentations was for director Matt Reeves’ upcoming take on The Caped Crusader, titled simply THE BATMAN. Robert Pattinson stars as Bruce Wayne this time around, and it’s been revealed that like last year’s JOKER, this movie takes place in an alternate universe, meaning it doesn’t cross over or conflict with any of the previous Batman movies. And now we have our first look by way of a teaser trailer, and it really doesn’t disappoint. If anything, this take on The Dark Knight is perhaps the most gritty and dark we’ve ever seen, drawing comparisons to movies like SEVEN and the style of David Fincher. The cast features Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman, Paul Dano as The Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, Peter Sarsgaard as district attorney Gil Colson, Jayme Lawson as Bella Reál (a man running for mayor of Gotham), Andy Serkis as Alfred, and Colin Farrell as the Penguin. Check out the trailer below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.

THE BATMAN opens October 1, 2021
