Is Robert Pattinson’s Batman Secretly Appearing in Superman? Fans Think They’ve Found Proof

by

As Superman gears up for its theater release on July 11, fans are meticulously dissecting every hint and leak, eagerly anticipating unexpected guest appearances. One of the most buzzed-about topics online is whether Robert Pattinson’s Batman, who was last seen in a brooding stance amidst rain-drenched Gotham streets in The Batman (2022), will make a surprise appearance in the DC Universe’s first significant reboot. A leaked score has only added to the excitement, but is there truly any connection between the two?

Does Robert Pattinson’s Batman have a cameo in Superman?

No, Robert Pattinson’s Batman is not in Superman.

The song from the movie’s score that leaked recently is not a brief appearance in the film (cameo), an extra scene shown after the credits (post-credits scene), or a hidden reference (Easter egg). Fans have speculated that it has a dark, bassy tone similar to The Batman, but there’s no evidence of any multiverse trickery happening in this case.

From the outset, Director James Gunn has made it clear that Robert Pattinson’s portrayal of Batman exists in a different universe, known as Elseworlds, which stands apart from the ongoing narrative in the revamped DC Universe. When questioned about the possibility of Pattinson appearing in future films during the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Gunn has firmly denied it, expressing his dedication to both creating stories within the DCU and exploring Elseworlds narratives.

The height of the confusion occurred following the track, believed to be from the first showing of Superman, which amassed over 12 million views on social media platforms. Fans speculated that the music was a secret reference to Pattinson’s Batman character, but many dismissed this as mere wishful thinking.

In an enhancement of clarity, Matt Reeves, together with his co-writer Mattson Tomlin, have recently completed and submitted the script for The Batman Part II. This sequel, along with the Penguin Max series, upholds Reeves’ unique, gritty, and grounded style – distinct from the superhero realm that Superman introduces on July 11. Gunn has publicly applauded the script as “great.

In the initial phase of “Gods and Monsters” by Gunn, David Corenswet soars as Clark Kent, with Rachel Brosnahan portraying Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult delivering a chilling performance as Lex Luthor. Although Superman doesn’t include Batman, the DCU plans to introduce a fresh Bruce Wayne through The Brave and the Bold.
