Only 45 days after its release in theaters, The Batman starring Robert Pattinson is coming to HBO Max Monday, April 18th.
There was a lot of pre-judgement going on when it was first announced that Pattinson would be the newest Bruce Wayne. I'm assuming that most of that judgement came from his infamous role of Edward Cullen in the Twilight franchise. Many thought that he would not be able to be versatile enough, or live up to actors that have played Batman/Bruce Wayne in the past.
According to Comicbook.com, the film has officially climbed past $735 million at the global box office. The film has also grossed $21.9 million in China where it is the first comic book movie to screen since Wonder Woman 1984. These latest numbers easily make The Batman as 2022's highest grossing film (thus far) globally ahead of Water Gate Bridge and Uncharted.
I think Robert Pattinson proved that he can live up to the hype!
