The Batman is a superhero film based on the DC Comics character Batman that was released in 2022. It is a reboot of the Batman film franchise, produced by DC Films, 6th & Idaho, and Dylan Clark Productions, and released by Warner Bros. Pictures. Matt Reeves directed the picture, and he co-wrote the screenplay with Peter Craig. Along with Robert Pattinson, Zoe Kravitz, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, John Turturro, Peter Sarsgaard, Andy Serkis, and Colin Farrell, it stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne / Batman. Batman, who has been combating crime in Gotham City for two years, uncovers corruption while chasing down the Riddler (Dano), a serial killer who preys on the city's elite.
After Ben Affleck was cast as Batman in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) in 2013, development began. Affleck agreed to direct, produce, co-write, and appear in The Batman, but then stepped out due to concerns about the film. Reeves took over and rewrote the plot, erasing all references to the DCEU. He drew inspiration from Alfred Hitchcock's films and the New Hollywood era, as well as comics like "Year One" (1987), The Long Halloween (1996–97), and Ego (1997–98) to explore Batman's detective side more than prior films (2000). Pattinson was cast in May of this year, with further casting to follow in late 2019. Between January 2020 and March 2021, principal photography took place in the United Kingdom and Chicago.
On March 1, 2022, The Batman premiered at Lincoln Center in New York, and on March 4, 2022, it was released theatrically around the world. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it was postponed twice from its original June 2021 release date. The film earned around $710 million worldwide against a budget of $185–200 million, making it the highest-grossing film of 2022. It was praised for its acting, photography, Reeves' direction, action sequences, and story, however, some criticized its length. It's meant to kick off a shared universe for Batman, with two sequels planned and two spin-off television series in the works for HBO Max.
