With The Batman fast approaching, we're beginning to see a lot more merchandise for Matt Reeves' DC Comics adaptation find its way online. Now, we have three new promo posters (these are likely to be found in stores available to buy or adorning toys and games), and they're seriously cool.
As well as debuting a new logo that puts the spotlight on the Dark Knight and Catwoman, we have a badass shot of Robert Pattinson suited up and ready for action as Gotham City's vigilante. The third poster is a little more comic book inspired and boasts the tagline, "I Am The Shadows."
We're expecting to see more imagery like this over the coming weeks and months, but it's clear the color red is going to factor heavily into The Batman's marketing campaign. Seemingly inspired by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale's "Dark Victory," it's an awesome idea, and one that makes this Batman really stand out.
The Batman is an edgy, action-packed thriller that depicts Batman in his early years, struggling to balance rage with righteousness as he investigates a disturbing mystery that has terrorized Gotham. Robert Pattinson delivers a raw, intense portrayal of Batman as a disillusioned, desperate vigilante awakened by the realization that the anger consuming him makes him no better than the ruthless serial killer he’s hunting.
Also in the star-studded ensemble are Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle; Paul Dano as Edward Nashton; Jeffrey Wright as the GCPD’s James Gordon; John Turturro as Carmine Falcone; Peter Sarsgaard as Gotham D.A. Gil Colson; Barry Keoghan as Officer Stanley Merkel; Jayme Lawson as mayoral candidate Bella Reál; with Andy Serkis as Alfred; and Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot.
The Batman is set to be released in theaters on March 4, 2022.
