Robert Pattinson Says The Batman Part 2's Fight Scenes Are 'Significantly Harder' to Perform

Robert Pattinson has revealed that performing the fight scenes in The Batman Part 2 is more difficult for him due to his age. The actor discussed his experience with GQ ahead of the release of his new film, Primetime. Pattinson acknowledged that he feels his age while fighting, calling it "significantly harder than it used to be."

However, he emphasized that he finds the process enjoyable and believes the movie will be a great success. The Batman character was originally intended to be portrayed by a younger and inexperienced version of the reluctant hero. Pattinson, who is now five years older than Christian Bale was in The Dark Knight Rises and three years younger than Ben Affleck was in Batman v Superman, is therefore cast in a role that is more challenging for him.

The film features an impressive cast including Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, and Brian Tyree Henry, though their roles are largely undisclosed. Set photos and videos of intense action scenes in a snow-covered Gotham City have been seen on social media in recent months. The movie's release date has been pushed to February 2028, providing fans with a long wait before witnessing the Caped Crusader back on the big screen.
