THE BATMAN Begins, Filming, That Is (UPDATED!)

Robert Pattinson as Batman mock-up by John Regan

UPDATE: I can confirm that principal photography will start in mid-January of next year (2020) in London (Warner Bros. Studios Leavesden).  I believe some other outlets have reported that previously, so that is indeed the case.  There had been some scuttlebutt that filming might be pushed back and start a bit later in 2020, but that is not the case.  All is well apparently and progressing as expected.  My original report follows. – “Jett”

I have heard from several FOBOF that some filming has commenced in the UK on THE BATMAN.  I’m also told that it likely doesn’t involve any of the principal cast and is mostly second unit type of stuff.

Not much, but it’s cool that THE BATMAN is actually going in front of the camera as we speak.

Yes, #TheBatmanIsComing!

In other news, director Matt Reeves said via a video message that he will be bringing THE BATMAN to CCXP 2020 next year (per DEADLINE).  Like with WONDER WOMAN 1984 yesterday, this could possibly be when we get the first full trailer for the movie.

THE BATMAN hits theaters on June 25, 2021.  Check out BOF’s Everything About THE BATMAN Page to stay up to date on the film’s production. – Bill “Jett” Ramey

Bill "Jett" Ramey
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. If there is a Mount Rushmore of this stuff, his face is already up there — sunglasses on, arms crossed, probably telling someone to calm down. 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.
