Robert Pattinson Apparently Produced Music In His Batsuit

UK actor Robert Pattinson has said he made music while on the set of Matt Reeves’ The Batman.

Speaking with GQ ahead of the film’s release next month, Pattinson revealed that he produced ambient electronic music between takes, while still in the batsuit, as there wasn’t much else he could do given The Batman was largely shot at night and with strict COVID protocols.

“I’d be in the tent just making ambient electronic music in the suit, looking over the cowl,” he said.

“There’s something about the construction of the cowl that makes it very difficult to read books, so you have to kind of almost lean forward to see out of the cowl.”

Although Pattinson has recently admitted to making things up from time to time during interviews, it’s not a stretch to think his on-set musical endeavours are legit.

As Consequence noted, Pattinson contributed vocals to two songs on the Twilight soundtrack and has collaborated with the likes of Death Grips and tindersticks.

Reeves has previously commented that his version of Bruce Wayne was inspired by Kurt Cobain.

“When I write, I listen to music, and as I was writing the first act, I put on Nirvana’s Something In The Way,” he told Empire.

“That’s when it came to me that, rather than make Bruce Wayne the playboy version we’ve seen before, there’s another version who had gone through a great tragedy and become a recluse.

“So I started making this connection to Gus Van Sant’s Last Days, and the idea of this fictionalised version of Kurt Cobain being in this kind of decaying manor.”

The Batman is in cinemas March 3.
