Robert Pattinson said he felt his age during the filming of The Batman: Part II, particularly in the fight scenes. Speaking to GQ, the actor said the process was challenging but fun, and that the film had a strong cast.
The film, directed by Matt Reeves and co-written with Mattson Tomlin, began filming in London in June. The new release date for the production, which had previously been postponed several times, was announced as February 18, 2028.
Why it matters
The start of filming shows that, following several postponements, the project has moved from schedule discussions to the actual production process. Pattinson’s comments about the physical strain of the fight scenes make visible the demands placed on the lead performance during production and the difficulty that action sequences pose for the actor. Although the emphasis on a strong cast highlights the film’s ensemble, the fact that the council notes indicate that some cast information appears unverified calls for a cautious approach to details in this area. The involvement of Matt Reeves and Mattson Tomlin in the directing and writing departments clarifies who holds the creative responsibility, while it remains unclear whether the February 18, 2028 date announced after several postponements will be maintained throughout the production process.
