TheBatman director Matt Reeves was initially terrified audiences wouldn't follow the complex detective story, but early test screenings proved him wrong. 'What I found actually... was how much they loved that aspect. That was the biggest relief.'
The Batman director Matt Reeves shares surprising insights from his initial screenings of the movie. The cinematic reboot of Gotham's knight is days away. Robert Pattinson signed on as this incarnation of Batman along with a long list of foes and frenemies, including Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman, Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin, and Paul Dano as the Riddler. The first reviews of the Reeves' Batman reboot are showing plenty of promise.
With mixed reviews and production issues on the last several big screen Batman movies, Warner Bros. greenlit a standalone reboot and gave Reeves the mantle of the franchise along with all the pressure that comes with it. Studios want something family friendly but fans have come to expect a gritty, intense portrayal of Gotham along with razor sharp dialogue and storytelling.
“The first version of this movie that I screened; the movie has a very ambitious, complex narrative. So, by the time we got to a place where we had to start testing, I was not all the way through the cut of the movie. There was so much of the movie yet to be touched and it was really long. I mean, not to say that the movie doesn't have length now, but it was longer than what I intended.
Batman is getting attention again as the World's Greatest Detective. Casting Dano as the Riddler was an excellent way to ensure that the movie's biggest fight is a battle of wits. From the beginning of his work on the project, Reeves suggested that he wanted to return to that more cerebral, problem-solving side of the hero.
Trailers show Pattinson's Batman working more closely with detective Jim Gordon as a trusted ally in the solving of cases as opposed to The Dark Knight's Batman, who loved to suddenly leave Gordon staring at blank air without warning. This one change further enforces the hope that Reeves and Pattinson will truly deliver a compelling, smart narrative of mystery with The Batman.
