The Batman is now playing in theaters (pretty much) worldwide, but we're still seeing new promotional material for Matt Reeves' critically-acclaimed reboot find its way online.
This latest poster hails for China, and gives us a new look at The Dark Knight (Robert Pattinson) facing-off with the psychotic villain known as The Riddler (Paul Dano), who is reimagined as a relentless serial killer targeting Gotham City's elite.
Dano's take on The Riddler is a far cry from Jim Carrey's spandex-clad version from Batman Forever, and proves to be a genuinely unnerving antagonist for the Caped Crusader.
Have you been to see The Batman yet? If so, what did you make of this new incarnation of The Riddler? You can find out what we though of the movie here.
"Two years of stalking the streets as the Batman (Robert Pattinson), striking fear into the hearts of criminals, has led Bruce Wayne deep into the shadows of Gotham City. With only a few trusted allies — Alfred Pennyworth (Andy Serkis), Lt. James Gordon (Jeffrey Wright) — amongst the city’s corrupt network of officials and high-profile figures, the lone vigilante has established himself as the sole embodiment of vengeance amongst his fellow citizens."
“When a killer targets Gotham’s elite with a series of sadistic machinations, a trail of cryptic clues sends the World’s Greatest Detective on an investigation into the underworld, where he encounters such characters as Selina Kyle/aka Catwoman (Zoë Kravitz), Oswald Cobblepot/aka the Penguin (Colin Farrell), Carmine Falcone (John Turturro), and Edward Nashton/aka the Riddler (Paul Dano). As the evidence begins to lead closer to home and the scale of the perpetrator’s plans becomes clear, Batman must forge new relationships, unmask the culprit, and bring justice to the abuse of power and corruption that has long plagued Gotham City.”
The Batman is rated PG-13 for “strong violence, disturbing content, drug content, strong language, and some suggestive material.” The movie is set to hit theaters on March 4.
