Robert Pattinson is very excited about his role in the upcoming The Batman movie and wants to do 'crazy stuff' with the caped character. Last year, DC surprised his fans by casting in Robert Pattinson to star as Batman in their upcoming film. However, regardless of what the fans think, Pattinson has worked in quite a few critically acclaimed low budget independent films and has added many challenging roles to his credit. The actor is now using that experience in his upcoming superhero role.
During a recent interview, the actor spoke about how R-rated films allow you to do a lot more. Talking about Batman, the 33-year-old actor stated that he wants to push the limits of the film as far as it can go and do crazy things with his role. The actor mentioned that director Matt Reeves is ready to experiment with him. Since the plot details of the upcoming film are being kept under tight security, the fact that the actor spoke about R-ratings while talking about the film that is expected to be of the PG-13 rating, is more interesting.
Meanwhile, during another interview, the actor was asked about his decision to work in a mainstream big-budget film, especially considering the fact that he has been doing abstract and under the radar indie movies for a while. Explaining the reason behind his choice, the actor stated that something about the DC comic book character always attracted him. He stated that there a prestige attached to the role that makes it attractive.
The actor also stated that he sees an aura of quality in every live-action Batman project throughout the character's history, including the original Batman TV series. Pattinson also spoke about being obsessed with Tim Burton’s Batman movies when he was younger. The actor stated that there is something special about the films and the character appealed to him.
