Robert Pattinson’s The Batman Now Releasing 4 March 2022

With the news this morning that Dune was being pushed back to 1 October 2021 it seemed inevitable that the release date for The Batman would also be moved. It didn’t take very long for news to hit that it has in fact been pushed back to 4 March 2022 by Warner Bros. Hmm does this mean it won’t be an awards contender? According to Screen Daily:

The Batman’s move – to March 4, 2022 – had been expected after multiple production delays (the film recently resumed filming in the UK after Pattinson contracted Covid-19) and the decision on Monday (October 5) by Warner Bros and Legendary to move Dune from December to The Batman’s previous date of October 1, 2021.

The studio confirmed the date switch on Monday evening.
