Robert Pattinson Wants to Make a Batman Trilogy With Director Matt Reeves

nearly three hours long, it’s only the beginning of the story as far as star Robert Pattinson sees it.The actor makes his debut as Bruce Wayne in the new reboot co-written and directed by Matt Reeves, and he’s made clear that he’s ready to play Batman “as many times as people want to see it.” Speaking with Fandango, Pattinson teased the notion of making a new trio of Batman films with Reeves: “I’ve talked to Matt about the idea of doing a trilogy, and that would be wonderful. I really, really enjoyed the process and it’s such a fun character to play.”Paul Dano, who plays The Riddler in the new film, added during the same interview, “There’s so much room for this Batman to grow, too,” while co-star Colin Farrell (who plays The Penguin) echoed that sentiment by saying, “I want to see the evolution of Bruce Wayne.”Pattinson said in December he had already “mapped out” the psychology of where his character might go in future films, but these new comments affirm he’s eager to continue his partnership with Reeves on future installments.“The Batman” has been teased as a “Year Two” story for the Caped Crusader, in reference to the iconic comic book “Batman: Year One.” This story picks up in Bruce’s second year of being Batman, where it’s not quite an origin story but he’s not quite an expert yet either.

‘Marry Me’ Review: Jennifer Lopez & Owen Wilson Star In Far-Fetched Romantic Comedy

Jennifer Lopez knows a thing or three about media harassment and being in the public eye 24/7, but that only makes the far-fetched romantic comedy Marry Me seem even less tolerable or redeemable than it might have looked on paper. In its opening minutes, this slickly made, music-drenched concoction serves up a premise so massively implausible — that one of the hottest female singers on the planet would replace her cheating macho fiancé in front of a live TV audience with an ineffectual single dad math teacher in his 50s — that it can never recover. It is, in two words, perfectly preposterous.
