Fans got their first look at Robert Pattinson's Batmobile for The Batman when director Matt Reeves shared some behind-the-scenes photos of the film. The images were fairly dark so as to set the mood of the scene, making it a bit hard to see all the details and elements of the vehicle. Fans can now get a closer look at the Batmobile with new photos of its concept model released!
Concept model maker Jeff Frost (via @TheBatRobert) gave a peek at his work of the Batmobile for The Batman. The images were well-lit, giving the fans a much more detailed and up-close look at the trademark vehicle. You can check them out below!
Along with the speculations on what Pattinson's Dark Knight would look like, what he'll be riding through the streets of Gotham has been a topic of discussion amongst fans prior to the photos released by Reeves.
Comparing the model and the final product, it seems like most of its elements have remained. The hood has changed, with the orange lights on either side removed in the final product. There is also a slight change in the shape of the lights at the back. Overall, the Batmobile for this version is very much subdued and has a sleeker and modern design compared to the past Batmobiles.
Jeffrey Wright, who plays the role of Commissioner James Gordon, teased that it was the "most badass muscle you could imagine," pointing out that the Batmobile is "grounded" in Gotham and in Americana.
