THE BATMAN's Batsuit Fully Revealed As The Dark Knight Rides His Batcycle In Hi-Res Set Photos

We caught a glimpse of this earlier today, but new photos from the set of The Batman show Robert Pattinson's stunt double suited up as the Caped Crusader and riding into action. You need to see these!

Well, now we know why Matt Reeves shared that costume test! 

As you can see by following the link in the Tweet below, Glasgow Live has shared some photos from the set of The Batman showing Robert Pattinson's stuntdouble suited up as the Dark Knight. As a result, we can now see the length of those all-important ears (he definitely doesn't look like Daredevil), as well as the colour scheme of this costume in its entirety. 

There's no cape, but that's clearly going to be added in post-production, while there appear to be goggles or lenses in the mask. Now, before jumping to conclusions, there are a number of possible explanations for this. For starters, this stuntman could just be wearing them to protect his eyes.

However, it's also feasible that they'll glow white in the movie, thereby bringing an iconic piece of imagery from the Batman comic books to the big screen (which is long overdue at this point). 

That Batcycle, meanwhile, looks awesome. It's not too grounded, and instead looks like something we'd see the Caped Crusader use in the source material. That's obviously no bad thing!

Yes, that does appear to be stitching on Batman's mask and it's oddly reminiscent of what Adam West wore in the classic TV series. 

With no ears on display, it's fair to say this doesn't look very Batman-esque. If you imagine them, though, then it's easy enough to see what Reeves is going for with this take on the hero. 

Unfortunately, unfavourable comparisons to a gimp mask could also be made...

The nose on the mask isn't overly pronounced, and that's probably why there have been so many comparisons to Daredevil. 

However, what we're really interested in looking at in this shot is that collar (which appears to be connected to the hero's cape). It's something completely different to what we've seen in the past and easy to see why those rumours claimed that Lee Bermejo's work was an influence here.

Something everyone seems to love about this costume is that it appears to be heavily armoured. It's an awesome look for the Caped Crusader, and one that worked wonderfully in the Arkham series of video games. 

It looks like a heavy suit, and one which will definitely protect Batman while he fights criminals in Gotham City.

There's also a "homemade" feel of sorts to the suit which definitely makes it feel like Bruce Wayne has made this suit alongside Alfred Pennyworth rather than with Wayne Industries' tech.

Now, a lot of fans have theorised that the Bat-symbol on the World's Greatest Detective's suit is possibly a Batarang that he's able to remove and throw at his enemies.

It's a fun and undeniably plausible theory, but we have another idea about what significance it has to the hero in this particular take on the iconic DC Comics character.

Look closely at that "logo" and it actually looks like it's been made from parts of a gun. 

Comic book fans will be all too aware that the Dark Knight hates those (Ben Affleck's version of the hero using them was a real issue for fans), and it would make sense for that symbol on his chest to have been made from the gun Joe Chill used to kill his parents. 

It's also pretty twisted and dark, but Bruce Wayne isn't the most stable of people...

Robert Pattinson isn't a huge guy, but this armoured Batsuit appears to have given the impression that he is, and there's no denying that he appears to be a physically imposing version of the hero.

It's a shame we don't get a better look at the cape but it seems to be comic accurate.

Doesn't look great to me in those snapshots but I'm sure they'll clean it up to some degree in post.

@Visualiza - it definitely doesnt have the cape, meaning that either this is still a prototype to the main suit he's wearing or the cape will be added later with cgi for the stunt work here. Either way no cape here so clearly we arent given the best look here.

Also this being a stunt suit means its designed to be more baggie. The suit as we'll see it will at least look more presentable.

@Visualiza - trust the artistry of the cinematography

I’ve been on a few movie sites were stuntman wear protective helmets in motorcycle scenes

But they glue the color of the movie stars hair on the top of these helmets so from a distance it looks like the stunt double has the same hair color as the main actor

You can’t imagine how awful it looks in person

@THEDARKKNIGHT1939 - But hey at least now he can move his head right? lol

Have to agree, this looks like shit. Unless this is the first suit and it evolves then this hype train is losing steam for me by the second.

@guidice00 - its a suit made for a stunt double for what looks like a difficult stunt. Its gonna look different from the actual suit to account for padding so the guy doesnt die.

@comicfan100 - bs, that suit looked good other than it was 'puffy' similar to the cpt marvel suit, but they fix that shit in post or the camera tricks do it, idk - but everyone liked the look but nobody understood why it looked puffy.

Man's cowl is goofy as hell

Definitely glad they released the first look they did because this would've otherwise been much more concerning
