    No, Robert Pattinson’s Batman Isn’t Taking Over the DCEU

    It’s Wednesday, and that means we’ve had a few days of baseless rumors making the rounds from tinsel town. Normally, these are “sourced” stories from certain “outlets” making inflammatory claims about casting, news, and other choice subjects.

    Variety, usually one of the leaders in the entertainment journalism industry, ran a lede DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn has refuted as false. “A well-placed source says Gunn and Safran are exploring the possibility of incorporating filmmaker Matt Reeves’ iteration of Batman with actor Robert Pattinson into their wider universe,” the story claims.

    Gunn, as he often does (bless him), took to Twitter to point out the reality of the situation:

    There are few reporters I love more than @adambvary – truly a good guy – but in this case he needs to get a new source as this is entirely untrue. https://t.co/a7cnbTfpSi

    — James Gunn (@JamesGunn) December 14, 2022

    Shortly thereafter, “The Batman” director Matt Reeves also responded to this story.

    The source I’m really liking on this is Mr. @JamesGunn https://t.co/fYmy5to9A7

    This comes after a week of back and forth about the future of the DCEU. Another timely report, this time from another industry pinnacle The Hollywood Reporter, sounded the death kneel for a top-tier Warner Bros. Pictures title, “Wonder Woman 3.” As often happens, the story took on a life of it’s own, with some outlets claiming director Patty Jenkins stormed out of meetings, quit, and other possible reactions to the news her gestating film had been nixed. (Jenkins has since addressed this in her own words, as has Gunn.)

    But Pattinson’s The Batman leading the DCEU? That just seems silly.

    We’ll let you know what we hear about this and other news.

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
