He won't. I don't blame him one bit for taking the lead role in those god awful Twilight movies either. He made so much money from them that he is set for life and has been picking & choosing a lot of interesting /personal passion projects over the years. He was tremendous in Good Time, solid in The Lost City of Z, good in The Rover, held his own against Willem Dafoe, etc etc
He was also slick & cool in Christopher Nolan's Tenet. Honestly, the only two films post Twilight that I didn't like at all were Cosmopolis & Maps to the Stars (both directed by David Cronenberg) Just wasn't feeling those 2 films.
With Matt Reeves directing I have full confidence that Pattinson will give a good to great performance as Batman/ Bruce Wayne.
Speaking of Matt Reeves, imo he is sorta the anti JJ Abrams. Ironically, Abrams and Reeves have been friends since their early teens. I know they are both known for rebooting, remaking films or sequels but Reeves just seems like such a superior director and adds a lot more character development to his films and also understands how to further the plot and his films feel like they have a lot more substance in them compared to Jar Jar. Hell, Reeves made me care so much about a cgi/motion capture chimp in those Planet of the Apes sequels. lol [Reply]

I had forgotten about that because the movie annoyed me. A little bit at first but the more I thought about it the more it annoyed me, and now I hate it. But I did think that Pattinson did a pretty good job of playing his role in it and I recall that I was pleasantly surprised by his performance. [Reply]

For sure. I thought the choice for him to play batman was weird but after watching tenet I think it might just work. [Reply]

He's a good actor if people actually watch his other shit and don't just think about twilight which he knew was garbage. [Reply]

Also to be fair, the last actor to portray Batman wasn’t exactly Mr. Congeniality. [Reply]

Looks good to me as long as the fairy vampire actor doesn't mess it up. I'm going to see it tomorrow in Imax. I will report back. Batman (and Superman) are really just about the only Super Hero movies I usually like. [Reply]
