UPDATE: 26 JULY 2021

Riddle me this Batman! People were asking Henoel Grech about the trailer. Henoel confirmed to a few people that it is the same trailer with different music. Whether he means same trailer we’ve already seen or same trailer with 3 different musical themes only time will tell. This comment captured by @thebatfilm seems to respond to Batman? with “That no! Batman in the fall”. Makes me lean towards FanDome 2 as well since that’s being held on 16 October 2021. Something is definitely brewing since IMDbPro updated The Batmanon 12 July 2021 by including Can Yesilyurt as Music Editor, Sound Mixer on the film.

UPDATE: 24 JULY 2021

According to Italian Composer “Henoel Grech” there will be two to three trailers released in different languages. Wondering if it’s the one trailer subtitled/dubbed or whether the trailers will be different according to language. Looks like Henoel is working on the music for one of them. With CinemaCon and DCFandome coming up soon we shouldn’t have to wait too long to find out.

Josh Horowitz talked to Colin Farrell about The North Water (which is a book I’ve been meaning to read for eons) and of course The Batman. Here is a snippet of what Colin had to say – you can listen to the rest of the interview on either of the links below or at Spotify. His praise for Matt Reeves is so encouraging – not that I thought I could get more excited for this film.

Thanks @thebatfilm for heads up.

Interesting …

Late Free Cinema talks to international (Australian) stunt performer, Harley Durst. He talks about The Batman at around 11.40 (watch a snippet below thanks to The Art of The Batman), but you can listen to it HERE. Great interview if you are interested in stunt performing. Harley’s is Rob’s body double obviously.

Thanks @TheBatFilm for heads up

Sue I don’t know whether the end result might give you nightmares, but The Voice of Reason has posted that McFarlane Toys is to release some Batman statues (or action figures) soon. I’ll update with images when they release, but given Batman’s mask it shouldn’t be too hard for them to recreate Rob’s jaw. Will be interested to see Bruce Wayne though. Stay tuned.
