Despite the great love that fans showed for the project at the recent DC FanDome, it seems things are not looking good for the production, considering its biggest star has been confirmed as a COVID-19 carrier. Robert Pattinson has tested positive for coronavirus according to recent reports.
The new trailer was one of the most anticipated at last month’s event where Warner Bros. released previews of various productions, we met the official version of Cheetah in ‘Wonder Woman 1984’, the characters that will be played by the actors from ‘The Suicide Squad’ directed by James Gunn, the new characters for ‘Titants’, among many other surprises.
Due to the pandemic this entire event was virtual and at the beginning of the panel of ‘The Batman’, the actor welcomed the fans who at the same time were excited, even more so after the release of the first teaser, since we saw Bruce Wayne struggling with several mental conflicts.
Without a doubt, this is a delicate issue, not only because he is the protagonist, but also because of the possibility that it has infected more people in production. It was known that when the pandemic began the production of ‘The Batman’ had stopped all shootings, but as the months progressed, it seemed that everything was calming down, and they returned to the set. However, an unforeseen pause has occurred, since it is not known how much they will be able to advance without the protagonist.
It should be noted that Warner Bros. said that a member of the production is the one who had tested positive, but it was never made clear who it could be. Vanity Fair was the one who made the news public to the world, but WB has yet to comment on the subject. We will have to wait and see if there is an official statement released about Robert Pattinson being the one infected.
