Robert Pattinson Replaces Christian Bale For ‘Batman Begins’ In Deepfake Video

Robert Pattinson replaces Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne in a Deepfake video for Batman Begins.

In 2005, director Christopher Nolan took the live-action Batman film series in a new direction with Christian Bale as the Dark Knight. Offering fans a relatively grounded take on the Caped Crusader’s mythos, Batman Begins marked the beginning of an acclaimed new trilogy with Christian Bale as the iconic DC hero.

Now, Robert Pattinson is set to become the newest actor to don the cape and cowl in director Matt Reeves’ The Batman. However, a new Deepfake offers fans an idea of what it might have looked liked had Robert Pattinson portrayed Bruce Wayne in Batman Begins instead of Christian Bale.

Check out the video below to see Robert Pattinson replace Christian Bale in Batman Begins.

Full plot details on The Batman are currently under wraps, though the film will center around a younger Bruce Wayne and feature a Rogues’ Gallery of villains that includes Catwoman, The Penguin, and The Riddler. The Matt Reeves film will follow Batman during his formative years as Gotham City’s protector and will make use of the Dark Knight’s detective skills to a greater extent than previous DC films. It is expected to be the first chapter in a new trilogy with Robert Pattinson as Batman.

Directed by Matt Reeves from a script he co-wrote with Mattson Tomlin, The Batman stars Robert Pattinson as the Caped Crusader, Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman, Paul Dano as the Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner James Gordon, John Turturro as Carmine Falcone, Peter Sarsgaard as Gil Colson, Jayme Lawson as Bella Reál, with Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, and Colin Farrell as the Penguin.

The Batman will be released in theaters on June 25, 2021.
