Hey everyone, it’s Emile Ennis Jr. here
with Clevver News and production on “The
Batman” has shut down once again after reports
that a ‘crew member’ tested positive for
Covid-19!
The film initially paused its production back
in March, when much of the United States shut
down due to the ongoing status of the world.
According to reports, there were about three
months worth of filming left for the blockbuster
film.
Due to the delay, the release date for the
heavily anticipated Batman movie was pushed
back to October 1, 2021.
In August, DC Comics held it’s DC Fandom
event virtually, debuting tons of new footage
for upcoming DC films, including The Batman.
The first trailer for “The Batman” was
shown and received tons of positive feedback.
Before the trailer debuted, lead actor Robert
Pattinson briefly appeared, saying, QUOTE,
“As many of you probably already know, we
were in the beginning stages of production
when COVID hit, so now I'm very anxious to
get back to work and continue to form this
beloved character.
I've always been a massive fan."
Production picked back up for the movie just
three days ago.
But after a few short days, production has
already been halted.
Warner Bros. told USA Today, QUOTE, “A member
of 'The Batman' production has tested positive
for Covid-19, and is isolating in accordance
with established protocols.
Filming is temporarily paused.”
The “Daily Mail” had an insider tell them,
QUOTE, “Everyone was talking on the set
about it.
We do not know who has tested positive, but
it has caused chaos to the schedule."
Conditions on the set of the movie are unknown
at this time as nobody knows if “The Batman”
cast and crew were tested daily or social
distancing.
The real question, of course, is WHO tested
positive onset?
Well, it turns out it’s the Dark Knight
himself, Robert Pattinson has fallen victim
to the disease.
That’s right, according to multiple reports,
Edward Cullen AKA Bruce Wayne was the Batman
cast member who tested positive for Covid.
There are no concrete reports as to WHEN the
movie will be able to pick up production again,
but it can’t bode well that the LEAD of
the movie is the one that is out for an indefinite
amount of time as The Sun reported that the
movie set has been, QUOTE, “thrown into
chaos.”
Yikes.
People were, understandably, upset, with many
taking to Twitter to express their sadness.
One person Tweeted, QUOTE, “NOT ROBERT PATTINSON
TESTING POSTIVE FOR COVID WTFISHAHQKIDWLASHSUQNDHW
I AM AT MY LIMIT F******K!!!!!”
Others joked that they would fix this, saying,
QUOTE, “Wait not Robert Pattinson, I’m
finding that vaccine myself.”
And some are clearly done with 2020, stating,
QUOTE, “Not robert pattinson, please 2020
I’m begging you”
However, many fans are staying optimistic,
explaining, QUOTE, I'm honestly betting Robert
Pattinson will probably fully recover in 2
weeks.
Dude is a healthy young man.”
We’re all hoping for a speedy recovery for
Rob and hope “The Batman” can get back
on track with its production soon.
