CONTEXT: Robert Pattinson is a world-class troll/goofball when he does interviews. (Remember when he said he wasn’t working out for THE BATMAN and had only a small dumbbell and Bosu Ball and people had meltdowns?)  Keep that fact in mind while reading the following. Carry on…

During an actor-on-actor interview with his MICKEY 17 co-star Naomi Ackie for HERO MAGAZINE, RP jokingly — repeat, JOKINGLY — made fun/light of THE BATMAN: PART II‘s delays that have pushed it back 2 years from its original release date saying he’s going to have to go from “Young Batman” to “Old Batman.”  Here’s what he said when asked about doing the next Batman movie.

I fucking hope so (laughs). I started out as young Batman and I’m going to be fucking old Batman by the sequel (both laugh).  I’m 38, I’m old.  I’m old, but I’m healthier. I think I’ve actually brought my biological age down a bit.

Pattinson has recently said that filming on THE BATMAN: PART II begins later this year (2025) and that he knows its plot; which he said is “cool” and “exciting.” (CLICK HERE for that story.)

I know this isn’t much and most people clearly realized that Pattinson was, well, being Pattinson. But some have made a big deal out of it and spun it as the project is in trouble…again.

Bill “Jett” Ramey isn’t just a Batman fan — he’s one of the founding fathers of the online Batman community. As the creator and Editor-in-Chief of Batman-On-Film.com, the original and longest-running Batman news and commentary site, Jett helped carve the very bedrock of modern fan internet press. A lifelong Dark Knight disciple, Jett has spent decades championing filmmaker‑driven Batman stories, cutting through fanboy noise with a Texas‑sized dose of honesty, and keeping the conversation smart, civil, and drama‑free. He’s the BOF Godfather — the guy who was here before the hashtags, before the clickbait, before the algorithms… and he’s still here, still talking Batman, still calling it straight. When he steps out of Gotham, Jett is pure Texas. He bleeds Dallas Cowboys blue, blasts Elvis and rock ’n’ roll, and has a deep appreciation for cold beer, dive bars, and Texas Longhorns football. He works out, he cooks, and he can grill like a man who’s earned the right to say “don’t assume” when he tells you he lives in the great state of Texas. He shares that home with his wife — “Announcer Rachel” — and their dogs: Gracelin the Labradoodle and Presley, a rescue pup named after the King himself.
