Extract Transcript:

Kravitz: How do you feel about casting? Especially when you’re doing a superhero film where there’s been so many other versions.

Reeves: I had to find a personal way into Batman and then think about how somebody could bring something personal to me. You’re always looking for an internal life that’s going to take what this story is and make us feel like you’re getting a glimpse into what this person’s struggle is. It’s weird: To be totally honest, when I was writing, I was thinking of Rob.

Kravitz: It just popped into your head?

Reeves: Well, I just started thinking about the children of Princess Diana, and the idea of being this orphaned prince. For some reason, I don’t know why, that made a connection to Kurt Cobain for me. And then somewhere in there, someone told me to watch [the 2017 Robert Pattinson movie] “Good Time.” And I was like, “That’s the only person I could imagine as this Batman. I don’t think that I know what it is if it’s not him.” It was weirdly fated, because it turned out that he was obsessed with Batman.

Robert Pattinson may have wanted to be an actor without being a celebrity. But then he turned his fame into its own kind of performance. “I can’t believe this is still going,” he said in an interview with The New York Times Style Magazine. https://t.co/vvTtIFf4Oe pic.twitter.com/qapbbM7Kkn

We posted a few days ago that Empire had an exclusive edition featuring Mickey17. Thanks to Chrissy sending me the scans below we can now read the full feature. I love how Bong refers to Rob focussing on the project and his character as watching “a beast go after its prey”.

PS. I forgot to post the subscriber version of the cover the other day – so here it is
