Mumbai : Warner Bros unveiled a teaser for the upcoming DC superhero film ‘The Batman’ during the DC FanDome event. Director Matt Reeves dropped into Saturday's DC FanDome to unveil the first footage from his take on the Dark Knight.

"I'm very anxious to get back to work and continue to form this beloved character. I've always been a massive fan," said Robert Pattinson via satellite at the top of the panel.

The teaser trailer showcases him as both Bruce Wayne and in action as Batman. We are also provided our first look at Zoë Kravitz's Selena Kyle mid-cat burglary and Jeffrey Wright as Commissioner Gordon. 

"The hell are you supposed to be?" a goon asks Battinson in the clip. After beating the perp to a pulp, Batman responds, "I'm vengeance."

The promo has a very noir-ish tone and resembles old Hollywood crime movies and Detective Comics from the Golden Age in tone. There will certainly be humour to offset the solemnity and bleakness but this teaser at least suggests this film is not going to be anything like most MCU movies.

Despite resemblances to Nolan’s style, Reeves’ take on the DC superhero is also its own thing and even in this short teaser, the attention to detail is superb, right from Pattinson’s eye makeup to his suit to the moody visuals.
