DirectorMatt Reevesrevealed the first trailer forThe Batmanat Saturday’s DC Fandome event.
The footage plays against a haunting version of Nirvana’s “Something in the Way.”
“One of the things that are interesting is learning how to be Batman.
It’s a criminological experiment.
He’s trying to figure out what he can do to change this place.
He’s seeing he’s not having any of the effect he wants to have.
That’s when the murders start to happen … and it opens up a whole new world of corruption.
Without being an origin tale, it ends up touching on his origins.
He’s kind of a growing legend and [criminals] are afraid of him.
He’s not a symbol of hope yet.
Reeves says 1970s classics likeTaxi DriverandChinatownwere influences.
“Selina isn’t Catwoman yet.
Oswald isn’t the Penguin yet in fact, he doesn’t like being called the Penguin.”
