Deadline has included three of Rob’s films as part of their “Most Anticipated” films coming to the cinema in 2026:

The Drama – Theaters – April 3

Zendaya and Robert Pattinson play a couple approaching their wedding day with some air of apprehension. A twist is hiding in the A24 film somewhere, as teased by the trailer in which Zendaya’s Emma and Pattinson’s Charlie seem awkward and not aligned before their approaching nuptials.

The Odyssey – Theaters – July 17

Christopher Nolan will return to the big screen in 2026 with The Odyssey starring Matt Damon as Odysseus, Tom Holland as Odysseus’ son Telemachus, Anne Hathaway as Penelope, and Mia Goth as one of Penelope’s maids Melantho. Zendaya will also star, with some thinking she appears as Athena. Lupita Nyong’o, Benny Safdie, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Robert Pattinson, Himesh Patel, Elliott Page, Bill Irwin, Samantha Morton, Jesse Garcia and Will Yun Lee also are in the cast. A trailer arrived right before Christmas teasing the action and adventure based on Homer’s classic tale.

Dune 3 – Theaters – Dec. 18

Denis Villeneuve’s third and final Dune film will arrive ahead of Christmas. Robert Pattinson joined the cast of the sci-fi adventure as villain Scytale. Set 12 years after the events of Dune, viewers can also expect to see Paul Atreides’ (Timothée Chalamet) and Chani’s (Zendaya) children Leto II (Nakoa-Wolf Momoa) and Ghanima (Ida Brooke). The spice will flow one more time next year.

What a stellar year for Rob fans and to think we still have Primetime and Here Comes the Flood which are rumoured to be releasing this year.

Fandango took a poll and look who is no. 1 for most anticipated performance

UPDATE: 6 January 2022

Rolling Stone “The 50 Most Anticipated Movies of 2022:

Andy Warhol once declared that in future, every actor will take a crack at playing Batman for 15 minutes (we’re paraphrasing slightly here). Now it’s Robert Pattinson’s turn. The former Twilight heartthrob-turned-consciously-arthouse-weird-movie-star gives us a moody caped crusader, right at the beginning of his career dedicated to cleaning up Gotham City. Paul Dano is the Riddler, here reimagined as a particularly nasty serial killer targeting the rich and famous. Zoe Kravitz makes for a particularly slinky Selina Kyle, a.k.a. Catwoman, and Colin Farrell is virtually unrecognizable as the Penguin. If director Matt Reeves can do for the dark knight what he did for giant monsters with Cloverfield, this could be way better than your average superhero joint.

UPDATE 5 January 2022:

From Variety:

The Batman (Warner Bros.)

Current Release Date: March 4

What Looks Strong: Comic book adventures have essentially been pandemic-proof at the box office, and Batman is one of the most ubiquitous masked heroes on the planet. Add Robert Pattinson as a moody, enigmatic Caped Crusader and Zoe Kravitz as Catwoman and, yeah, this movie is going to be huge.

Causes for Concern: Joaquin Phoenix’s devilish turn in “Joker” demonstrates that DC can go dark, we mean Scorsese-level darkness, and still become an insanely profitable box office sensation. But will audiences respond to a gritty, gruesome Dark Knight?

Verdict: Robert Pattinson is playing Batman. Robert Pattinson is playing Batman! Need we say more?

Yesterday I tweeted that The Batman was on Time Magazine’s “58 Most Anticipated Movies” List:

“There’s something in the way Robert Pattinson‘s Bruce Wayne flies off the handle that lets viewers know director Matt Reeves might be willing to take his Dark Knight to even darker places than his predecessors. Case in point: Paul Dano‘s The Riddler. The There Will Be Blood actor’s take on the classic Batman villain feels more Zodiac killer than Jim Carrey’s merry prankster.”

Today’s I see that The Batman is No. 1 on IMDb’s Most Anticipated Movies of 2022

“We’re not surprised that The Batman is IMDb’s most anticipated movie of 2022 user interest has been steadily growing this year, with each trailer drop rocketing the title to the top of our MOVIEmeter chart. Robert Pattinson stars as a young Caped Crusader in Matt Reeves‘ Batman reboot, which follows Bruce Wayne during his second and very volatile year as the World’s Greatest Detective while he tracks a serial killer who leaves cryptic messages at his crime scenes” sound like anyone familiar? The extended cast has us super excited, with Zoe« Kravitz as Selina Kyle, Paul Dano as Riddler, Jeffrey Wright as L.t. James Gordon, Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, and a hardly recognizable Colin Farrell as Penguin.”

Fairly certain I will be updating this list frequently given that the film is now almost less than 3 months away from release.

    Patience is a virtue. I keep telling myself this as I await The Batman. Sometimes I have to remind myself not to wish my life away for a movie LOL
