This is how the 33-year-old English actor got this role, however it didn’t come easy. Robert Pattinson shared that he was furious about the casting leak despite him not giving auditions at that time as it may have ruined his chances of landing the part.

“When that thing leaked, I was furious. Everyone was so upset. Everyone was panicking from my team. I sort of thought that had blown up the whole thing,” he said in an interview with Variety.  

Robert Pattinson shared how ‘powerful’ he felt while trying on the famed ‘Batsuit,he said “It’s maybe the craziest thing I’ve ever done in terms of movie stuff. I put it on. I remember saying to Matt, ‘It does feel quite transformative!’ He was like, ‘I would hope it does! You’re literally in the Batsuit.’”

The Batman will hit theatres in 2021.
