Michael Keaton spoke with ET about his time on the RoboCop set and compared wearing his '89 Batman suit versus Joel Kinnaman's RoboCop costume. Ketaon says that Keaton has it easier because his suit didn't have A/C. In terms of which superhero would win in a throw-down, Joel Kinnaman stated, "He's a cool guy, [a] cool guy with a lot of gadgets but Batman wouldn't stand a chance [against RoboCop]. It's the same thing with Batman and Superman. He doesn't stand a chance." However, his co-star, Abbie Cornish,chimed in, "How can you not go with Batman?" Gary Oldman didn't pick a winner, he was too stunned by the news that there's going to be a Batman vs Superman movie.
