The Batman is a 2022 American superhero film based on the DC Comics character Batman. Produced by DC Films, 6th & Idaho, and Dylan Clark Productions, and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it is a reboot of the Batman film franchise.

 The film was directed by Matt Reeves, who wrote the screenplay with Peter Craig. It stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne / Batman alongside Zoë Kravitz. The film sees Batman, who has been fighting crime in Gotham City for two years, uncovering corruption while pursuing the Riddler (Dano), a serial killer who targets Gotham’s elite.

The Batman premiered at Lincoln Center in New York on March 1, 2022, and was theatrically released worldwide on March 4. It was delayed twice from an initial June 2021 release date due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The film has grossed over $711 million against a $185–200 million budget, making it the highest-grossing film of 2022, and received praise for the performances, cinematography, Reeves’ direction, action sequences, and story, though some criticized its runtime. It is intended to launch a Batman shared universe, with two sequels planned and two spin-off television series in development for HBO Max.
