Robert Pattinson was \u201cvery eager\u201d to star in \u201cThe Batman\u201d as he has always been fascinated by the Caped Crusader.<\/p>\n
The 35-year-old actor makes his first appearance as the iconic superhero in \u2018The Batman\u2019 and was excited to take on the part after being impressed by Michael Keaton\u2019s portrayal of the character.<\/p>\n
Robert told the Metro newspaper: \u201cThe first Batman movie I ever saw was \u2018Batman Returns\u2019 and I think in some ways it\u2019s still probably my favourite.<\/p>\n
\u201cI love that movie so much. I was always very, very excited and very, very eager to do it, which is kind of really unlike me, to be honest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robert revealed that he has seen all of the previous Batman films but didn\u2019t have much knowledge about the hero\u2019s comic book origins.<\/p>\n
He explained: \u201cI think in England there\u2019s not really a comic-book culture.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn America it\u2019s ubiquitous but I only discovered the Batman comics fairly recently, especially the wealth of graphic novels. I don\u2019t even remember seeing a comic-book store when I was growing up.\u201d<\/p>\n
Pattinson continued: \u201cBut, yeah, since I\u2019ve been doing the movie, I could not have read more of them. I think pretty much every single major one of the graphic novels I\u2019ve read now.\u201d<\/p>\n
Matt Reeves\u2019 blockbuster features Robert as a younger version of Bruce Wayne\/Batman and the star suggested that the superhero is fuelled by anger in the new flick.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cIn this story he\u2019s unclear what his purpose is. In other iterations of the story, he truly believes he can change the fate of Gotham and in this he doesn\u2019t, really.<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the beginning of the story, it\u2019s very much a self-destructive road he\u2019s on.\u201d<\/p>\n
The movie marks Robert\u2019s return to a big franchise a decade after the conclusion of \u201cTwilight\u201d and the actor relished the experience.<\/p>\n
He explained: \u201cThere was part of me that just wants to have that kind of big audience. It just feels different. You can almost feel it when you\u2019re shooting \u2013 the anticipation.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd it\u2019s fun. I guess it\u2019s like surfing a massive wave.\u201d<\/p>\n
