The Batman Director Matt Reeves Felt 'Fear' Before Fan Reactions to First Trailer

TheBatman director Matt Reeves had a 'fear' of rebooting Batman — until he saw fan reactions to Robert Pattinson's 'I'm vengeance' in the first trailer: 'I didn't know for sure if that was a version that the audience was going to like or want.'

✖ "I'm vengeance," growled Robert Pattinson's Dark Knight in the first trailer for The Batman, scored to Nirvana's"Something In The Way." The teaser trailer, released during DC FanDome in 2020, offered a 134-second sneak peek at the gritty and grungy reboot as envisioned by Cloverfield and War for the Planet of the Apes filmmaker Matt Reeves — or, at least, a quarter of it.

In the peek from what acts as Batman's reveal in the movie,"Vengeance" emerges out of the shadows to pummel a face-painted thug in the gutter of Gotham City. The dark and moody trailer teased the re-imagined Riddler , Penguin , and Catwoman , but Batman as the embodiment of vengeance is what Reeves wanted to sell The Batman.
