We recently got a distant glimpse of what appeared to be either Michael Keaton or a stand-in suited-up as Batman on the set of the HBO Max Batgirl movie and thanks to some new photos, we have a much better look at the original big-screen Dark Knight's new outfit.
We're still not sure if this is actually Keaton or his body double, but the snaps do provide our best look yet at this updated costume. It's not a million miles away from the suit the actor wore in Tim Burton's 1989 movie, but there are a few key differences. It doesn't look quite as rubbery, for one!
Based on what we've seen from the sequence being shot here, this is most likely a flashback to Jim Gordon's (J.K. Simmons) first encounter with this incarnation of the Caped Crusader.
Batgirl will star Leslie Grace as the titular hero, along with Brendan Fraser, Jacob Scipio and Ivory Aquino.
Loki composer Natalie Holt recently announced that she's signed on to work on the movie's score, while Christina Hodson, who wrote Bumblebee and also worked on Birds of Prey and The Flash, penned the most recent draft of the script.
The HBO Max movie is being directed by Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah. No release date has been announced.
