It seems as though the ex-Twilight actor has managed to seal his comic book fandom after managing to pull of what many are deeming the ‘perfect Batman voice.’ Robert Pattinson is due to put on the cowl in ‘The Batman’, directed by Matt Reeves. The first trailer was released last year, having a massive impact as fans saw the director’s brutal take on the caped crusader. A year later, and DC Fandome is returning this Saturday with teasers and trailers expected for many of its franchises. 

In the lead-up to the event, a short clip was released revealing how Pattinson sounds as the Dark Knight. Despite having no actual footage and just a blood-red bat signal, the short phrase Pattinson busts out sent fans mad. Pattinson, as Bruce Wayne, uttered; It’s not just a signal; it’s a warning.’ Comments went crazy after that, and with the film due to hit cinemas on March 4th 2022, it seems as though Pattinson has sealed his place as a Batman to remember.
