For those curious about “The Batman,” here’s a glimpse of the official synopsis:
The Dark Knight, portrayed by the talented Robert Pattinson, has patrolled the shadows of Gotham City for two years, instilling fear into the hearts of criminals. With only a select few trusted allies – the indomitable Alfred Pennyworth (Andy Serkis) and steadfast Lt. James Gordon (Jeffrey Wright) – amidst the city’s web of corruption, Batman stands alone as the embodiment of vengeance in a city plagued by corruption.
When a relentless killer targets Gotham’s elite with sadistic machinations, a trail of cryptic clues beckons the World’s Greatest Detective into the depths of the underworld. Here, Batman crosses paths with iconic characters like Selina Kyle, better known as Catwoman (Zoë Kravitz), the enigmatic Oswald Cobblepot, aka the Penguin (Colin Farrell), the formidable Carmine Falcone (John Turturro), and the enigmatic Edward Nashton, aka the Riddler (Paul Dano). As the investigation unravels, leading closer to home, and the enormity of the villain’s nefarious plans becomes evident, Batman must forge new alliances, unmask the perpetrator, and deliver justice to the rampant abuse of power and corruption that has plagued Gotham City for far too long.
