Robert Pattinson and Nicholas Hoult being considered to play the next Batman

The Caped Crusader is one of those iconic roles that finds itself with different actors playing the superhero every few years. After Ben Affleck stepped away from the role, the production for the upcoming The Batman film needed its new hero. Rumour has it director Matt Reeves already has a few big names in mind: Twilight star Robert Pattinson and X-Men: First Class’s Nicholas Hoult. Warner Bros. isn’t confirming the report, but it’s said Pattinson might be the one to take the role. It’s being reported the studio wanted someone in his early thirties to don the suit this time. Both accomplished Brit-born actors can easily take on the role. But for now, we don’t have any confirmation on who is getting the role. We’re sure we’re going to hear more in the coming weeks and we’ll keep you posted for any updates.
