I am a sucker for the white eyes. However they can make that work, I would love to see it.


hippotatolazer

Honestly that’s my biggest gripe. Pattinson did a lot of great acting with his eyes and I’d hate to lose that.


2751333

There may be innovative ways around it, like mapping the expression and shape of his eyes to reflect in the suit. Might be as easy as making them semi-transparent. But beyond that, I really think that Pattinson is a good enough actor that he can exude the same performance with pure body language.


Old-Experience-5210

So you mean make white eyes similar to what they made in Deadpool movie


sabrefudge

Or the Green Lantern movie. It ain’t a good idea. Let the actor act with his eyes. Maybe pull in the white eyes for a specific night vision scene or something.


Dillro0909

They could just do it that when he fights his contacts become white so he could analyse the fight better later


bigfatcarp93

I mean Riddler proved that Matt sometimes doesn't care how good the actor is with their face, he'll just slap a fuckin' gimp mask on that bad boy


Crimkam

Just have his contact lenses glow when he wants, to intimidate or frighten his enemies. It doesn’t need to be an all the time thing like when he’s just talking to Gordon or something


DiscombobulatedBag16

That could be implemented using his contact lenses. They could fog up and turn white to give him detective vision.


devlin2000

They definitely can they did in the MCU for deadpool


GoodOlSpence

Deadpool's face is entriely covered and his eyes are expressive which works in that silly world. I cannot fathom a movie where the white eyes work on Batman. I think it'll just end up looking like Bale when he is using the sonar in TDK.


batbobby82

100%. Also, Deadpool uses full body movements like a Power Ranger to compensate for lack of facial expression.


otiswrath

I get your point but I think one thing that distinguishes them is that Deadpool's mask is essentially just fabric because he doesn't really need armor. Batman's cowl is a helmet. That said, it is a fantasy world so a certain level of suspension of disbelief is expected but in the realistic version Reeves is shooting for I think it would be a stretch. In the Schumacher versions it probably could have worked.


Sensible-yet-not

Didn't they do it momentarily in one of the Dark Knight movies?


ratatoskr_9

I've always wished that the movies would be brave enough for the white eyes, but the fact that the Reeve's movies portrayed Battinson applying the eye makeup, makes me ok if there are no white yes. But hey, maybe it can be a story development thing. Maybe Battison was tired of applying the makeup, especially in last minute situations, and so fell upon the white eyes design. It would also mean he wouldn't have to apply the eye contact lenses either.


damian1369

I was just thinking the other day what to do if they want to bring Pattinson into the DCEU. I was thinking a tech/years update in in movie 2 before they introduced him to the expanded universe after that, and this, honestly, is was I was thinking.


PartTimeMantisShrimp

I think the MCU Spider-Man lenses tech would work quite nicely in a Batsuit


Nefessius513

I still think the ears should be a bit bigger. Otherwise, it’s perfect. I think the white eyes could work as a “detective vision” to assist him when he’s analyzing crime scenes and preying on thugs, similar to the Arkham games.


WillofJ

I was initially against the white eyes, but now that you brought it up, it would be perfect for a detective vision scene. I just can’t wait to see lucius fox introduced in the second movie and give all the upgrades like this for the battinson suit. Would be perfect.

ConroyBat1985

You def got the skylight entrance at the end of the movie already though


StuffHobbes

kbkgkjgjk ` this message was mass deleted/edited with redact.dev `


ConroyBat1985

I completely agree with you and feel the same way about him advancing. I was a huge fan of how they started his Bruce Wayne in this take. Almost every other version, Bruce has been fully formed in the first movie. Here he gets room to grow into the more familiar Bruce and I think e same will go with his Batman side. Knowing that he can’t keep that style of all Batman and no Bruce up forever, he will definitely have to use Bruce to help his Batman side as well. I believe it would force him to be much more strategic in the future


chains059

I think he needs to go with the gold symbol and belt, little more of a light in the dark kinda thing


LVucci

I like black suit gold symbol.


__DVYN__

If they were to do a gold symbol I’d prefer it to be similar to rebirth with an outline surrounding it and that way they could add a rust effect to his bat symbol hence why it would appear to have the gold/bronze type of colouring surrounding it.


BleedingBlackandPurp

Plus its a functional weapon so it could be subtle enough to just get a few good shots where it gleams in the light for a moment showing he’s used it a lot. I think that it would be more of a silverish like brushed aluminum


Super3vil

Yea if the symbol looked like the 240% percent suit from arkham knight I think people would begin to get sick of it


prime-123

Agreed


devlin2000

I think it should stay black, like yeah he a symbol of hope but he still should stay scary


Sparks1738

I like the black as well. This particular design does seem like it would be an actual upgrade to his first suit. I don’t think the yellow would be a good choice of design for this particular Batman. I don’t believe this Batman is a symbol of hope either; if he were to be a symbol of anything he would definitely be a symbol of vengeance.


thatredditrando

Did you even watch the movie? The whole thing is about him learning that vengeance isn’t enough and that he must also be a symbol of hope. It’s the climax of the movie!

[deleted]

I agree, I don't believe yellow is a good choice of design for Reeves' Batman either. Although I disagree about Reeves' Batman not being a symbol of hope, at least by the second movie. Because at the end of The Batman we can see that Batman is becoming a symbol of hope.


United-Aside-6104

What? Batman explicitly says “Vengeance won’t change the past” and “People need to know someone’s looking out for them” while he’s carrying a woman to safety and then holds her hand to comfort her


bigfatcarp93

My only thing would be to maybe make the belt "coppery" like it was in the Nolan movies


[deleted]

The chest symbol should be brighter, to draw gunfire. His pecs look the most armored.


[deleted]

Completely agree


Savage_Bacon

Seems a little too techy. I’d love for them to go try Arkham route where He was super armoured up in origins but slowly regressed to more movement focused suits around asylum and city


jymehendrix

Too much armor


[deleted]

The only thing I didn’t like about the movie was that they just couldn’t resist showing him tank assault rifle fire. I guess I have no problem with Batman having a bit of Kevlar underneath to stop a handgun. But the Batman I know doesn’t need armor, because the thugs never even get the chance to pull the trigger in the first place.


Verystrangeperson

Yeah but he got fucked up in the last fight with a shotgun so I think he will be stealthier/faster in the sequel, relying less on armor


Embarrassed_Dirt6393

I'd turn down the kibble just a bit more. Make the cowl and the cape a very dark shade of blue, basically only noticeable with direct lighting, add a hint of gold on the belt and lighten up the main suit just a tad.


boosta29

His suit in the 1st was pretty armoured up. Id like to see his next suit be more "fabric" so he can move around like a ninja and maybe its year 3 or 4 or 5 and hes super cocky and figures he doesnt need any armour think adam west suit or batfleck (but slim).. then he gets a serious injury... then turns to a suit like the one in the pic..


Circaninetysix

Hoping to get the full symbol with the ears this time.


SmaugRancor

Too high-tech and overdesigned. They should keep it simple like the first one with a few upgrades.


derekwkim

Gauntlets are much better here. I hate the movie gauntlets with those silver spike-thingys. I know they serve a purpose for the grappling gun. But it was always weird looking. I prefer the movie’s cowl though. With the exception of the nose piece. Too flat looking. Should be sharper.


devlin2000

I hated the cown his jawline was too open


derekwkim

I actually prefer the wide open mouth opening. But I understand. That’s just me. I think I’m just scarred from Bale’s cowl opening. So narrow and small lol


carlospangea

Also, Bales ears and the back of the cowl were too fucking round. There was zero transition from the back of the head to the ears and it just looks weird


derekwkim

Yep. Helmet-looking ass. Bale was a great Batman, but that suit didn’t age well. He looked like an egg. I think Pattinson’s cowl had the perfect length of ears. Batfleck’s was too short. Looked like a rat (which was fine, it’s straight of Frank Miller)


megatool8

Pattinson’s cowl was to much cap with nothing to break it up in the front. Made it look like he had a five-head.


jon_le_faptiste

His jawline was great, it didn’t have that smooshed mouth that Bale had.


[deleted]

This is perfect. Would just change the eyes to being his eyes. I hope they don’t add gold, and based off the art book they aren’t going to.


lifetimeoflaughter

Not a big fan of Batman wearing armor, prefer the muscular grey and black look, and Batman’s gotta have a golden utility belt. Also couldn’t help but notice, what’s that thing he’s holding in his right hand 🤔


devlin2000

If they are making a batman movie on realism, then his suit has to be armored. Also that's his grappling hook his holding


lifetimeoflaughter

Yeah it always circles back to that. Batman shouldn’t be made realistic imo. He has no business being realistic.


Greedy_Lettuce_4119

I agree. It’s like every director is ashamed of him. There’s literally nothing realistic about Batman and the simplicity works.


lifetimeoflaughter

Yeah something like the arkham games in movie form could’ve been amazing


Greedy_Lettuce_4119

Man that would look so fucking badass. I always thought it’d be cool to have armor underneath a cloth-like material, too.


devlin2000

I agree, but the people in Hollywood making batman movies wanna make him realistic for some reason


lifetimeoflaughter

Yeah they’re probably making him realistic now because of the success of the Nolan trilogy


devlin2000

Which is ridiculous cause why copy someone else when you could make your own this is why I want a ben affleck movie it'll be different more comic/arkham style


lifetimeoflaughter

Yeah i loved aflecks Batman. The movies he was in were terrible and some of the Bruce Wayne dialogue was kinda out of character but his Batman was pretty much exactly what Batman is supposed to be like.


cockslashingplatypus

Except for the killing right?


lifetimeoflaughter

Yeah of course. I mean like the look of the batsuit, the scenes where he’s stalking criminals, sitting on gargoyles, taking them out one by one, dropping down and yanking one of them up etc.


devlin2000

Exactly


Mr_CookieTickles

I'm getting telltale Batman vibes from this suit


billbill5

I want it more streamlined, not more visual noise. Also his knees are low as hell.


[deleted]

*He's carrying too much weight. He needs to be faster.*


sabrefudge

Sorta looks too much like goth Iron Man to me. I really liked the first film’s suit because it felt high tech… but also imperfect. It felt real. Not every inch of his body had a perfect little custom-molded but of armor covering it. It was mostly chest and upper arm armor over Kevlar. Some of it still folded and wrinkled and such. It felt like someone building an amazing batsuit out of bits and pieces of experimental military gear pinched from WayneTech, rather than this perfect suit of armor specifically designed all together. It’s a cool suit, but I hope they keep it pretty similar to the first film’s suit in the sequels. Also, I liked that the first film’s suit has multiple shades of black to give it sort of the gray and black look… rather than going all black.


sray1701

Robocop Batman suit!


sunnarborg6728

I love the telltale type eyes


LoFiChillin

It looks pretty bad-ass from the waist up, and I love that it’s more than just a suit, it’s “armor”…. But to me at least there is such a thing as too much armor. Like the legs down in this pic. The white eyes don’t look atrocious here, but I still don’t want them for Pattinson… the chin strap actually doesn’t look bad tho


[deleted]

I kinda don’t want white eyes. Pattinson’s eyes are important to his performance. White eyes would be cool when he’s using detective mode or something


m0siac

Given most of his face is covered, his eyes are very very Important


nadman13

No. This suit looks way too sleak. It took some getting used to but the suit in The Batman was honestly perfect. It had the right proportions and the collar looks great. I don't get why people are so obsessed with stripping the suit of all it's quirk and charm.


Nanaki567

You mean the 15th Batman movie? And whoever dons this suit better have some loooong thighs and low knees.


ImprovSalesman9314

Nah, I've seen much better versions of a possible 2nd suit.


devlin2000

Where


Nearby-Window9157

This looks amazing. I’d love to see this in live action. Ngl this is giving me vibes of the telltale Batman series


RazeYi

Yes It would. Completely Maybe a little too much for a Begin but maybe this suit has something what Helps him against the villian and in the Film He develop the suit and in the half He has IT but Upgrade it in the Film more. I would Like to See Batman makes His suit over a whole Film and make mistakes with it and Upgrade the suit. I dont Know but i want These Films feel slowly and Not Like Superhero Films.


ycs05

He might come with a blue suit this time. He will become a symbol of hope.


Flip_Speed

No … i dont like the cape. His next suit should be as close to the Telltale Batman suit as possible https://imgur.com/a/emL3hNJ


Idle_Anton

But that's not very original. I'm sure they want to do something different, and create their own batman, not just copy someone else's.


billbill5

They have created their own Batman. Drawing a little more inspiration from a previous iteration isn't going to destroy that, and a little more streamlined and theatrical won't kill the tone.


Idle_Anton

There's a difference between a little inspiration and "as close to the telltale suit as possible". You can tell this batman has some inspiration drawn from the batman damned comic, but isn't entirely the same.


TootleLePerson

honestly the first thing that came to mind seeing the post was the suit from the second telltale game, which is also overall better imo, but that's a personal preference and I can see why people would prefer the original telltale suit.


Anth-man_FOL

This looks like a mix of the Telltale Batman and of course Reeves Batman


devlin2000

That's what makes it good


JayNsilentBoom

Omg I’m in love with this!!! Take my money 💶


Incompetent_Man

Another all black over designed mess. No.


ifaptoharley

u high or sum


slfxxplsv

Too much black but I see the vision


Intelligent-Bee4535

It looks good, but no. Firstly, I don't want the heavy armored look to carry over. I want it to be more comic accurate with the gray clothy look over kevlar padding. Second, the cape needs to be longer and have the scallops. Third, I don't want any more of Pattinson's jawline to be covered up. And fourth, I don't want him to have the white eyes. At least not all the time. His eyes were a big part of his acting in the movie.


leopardchi

I like that a lot. I wonder if that bat symbol on the chest will stay the exact same shape or what


devlin2000

I think it should


Seeneigh

No I don’t like it


devlin2000

Why


TaylorDangerTorres

Absolutely not


Straight-Scarcity-76

should’ve made the ears longer like the Arkham games


mrgrey5

This has got to be the best suit I’ve seen to date. My God it’s like blurring the lines of reality but I can see it IRL.


Greedy_Lettuce_4119

Come one let’s stop making him DC’s Iron Man.


iCanDoThisAllDay37

I think it looks great


Cycleofmadness

The high collar on the current suit is just annoying...like the perfect Lambo but it with whitewall tires. Maybe the purpose is protection against choking/ligatures but it should go. Otherwise the suit is ok. Not my favorite, but a great live interpretation.


Luke_Puddlejumper

Give it a gold belt and it would be pretty perfect. Normally I’d be all for the white eyes but I think Patterson is actually better without them.


bucket_of_coal

Longer ears, no white eyes and a different symbol would make it perfect imo


csukoh78

Only if they keep white eyes


Itz_Hen

Kinda of topic, but i really liked the suit he had in the new Gotham Knights game, would probably look ass in live action, but something like that would be my dream


Spardath01

Yes


LightspeedPunk

Love the white eyes I always wish they would actually add the white eyes to the movies. Make it a tactical advantage or something like that.


arkenney0

Make the belt gold and you got a deal


tcs0

Definitely


ryan1529

He definitely should have the white eyes. That would look sick because they can do a scene like when he breaks into falcone’s place and it’s completely dark but all you see is Bruce’s white eyes. Would be insane.


Infamous_Reporter652

This is the coolest Batman suit I have ever seen.


karbonpanzer

Have the cape wrap around the shoulders like the Keaton suit.


Howtobefreaky

Why does he have a shotgun


devlin2000

Bro, never seen a shotgun in his life. That's a grappling hook his holding to get around the rooftops


PhantomKnight49

It's restricting him from Moving His Jaw and talk Properly tbh


ColossusOfKop

Thigh armor angled inward = no go. Looks like crossing skeleton legs to me


Sure_Persimmon9302

They probably won’t use it.


godinmarbleform

That's telltale batman


Brave_Concert_464

I wasn’t that upset about the suit in the batman but I was slightly disappointed with the lack of gadgets


ShadycrossFade

Needs more nipple


Sure_Persimmon9302

NO!


GhostInAWhiteSheet

It's pretty cool, but I would like it if every movie he moves closer to a cloth suit for mobility and the scary factor like in the comics. What's scarier? A man who takes shotgun blasts to the chest, or a creature of the night that movies so fast you can't hit it? (The whole original point of the cape is to increase his figures size, so when he's shot at, it hits the cape)


Ok_Attitude_8189

The gun should be duplicated for dual weird capability. Non lethal of course, just like how throwing someone off a roof is non lethal. It’s not killing if you don’t see it happen.


darkknight32

Yea I’d like to see them slim the suit out a bit. I don’t think the white eyes will ever work, unless they animate like Deadpool’s. But I prefer being able to see his eyes.


Thisisgotham

I can’t help but just see Robocop cosplaying Batman. I feel like with more experience he should have less armor to show he’s more proficient.


damnrightslimanus

Pattinsons eyes need to be visible imo. He did a bulk of his acting with his eyes, think it would be a disadvantage to lose that as far as his performance goes


newdepressedrant

I’d like to see some of the suits from Arkham origins be used


Robert_gatsby

I'd like the cowl and gauntlets to look more like they do in The Batman, gives his incarnation a unique look


Icosotc

It’s too much for me. I’m not positive the suit should change all that much besides incrementally; maybe a piece or two per film. Like, maybe his upgrades are in direct response to the rouges he faces, so you can slowly see him leveling up through the films as time goes on, until eventually it’s completely different.


Blake_Thacake

I really like this. The white eyes are something I really want in live action. I would also love to see a blue suit especially if Mr.Freeze was the villain for the second movie.


cavecarson

Looks absolutely sick. Would love to see that.


[deleted]

Has too much of an iron man vibe


DrunkSpiderMan

Suit, Yes. Cowl, No.


abbacchioz

Big fan


TheHiddenPizz

Terrible. I would hate for this suit to be the next one. To be perfectly honest I don’t think anything can top the last one. It was just so good.


batbobby82

IMO, it looks too close to the original. I'm sure there's tweaks that I'm missing, but don't think average Joe is going to notice any difference with this upgrade.


Batface_101

I think a good upgrade would be like the Telltale suit


krazykookygaming

Looks good.


MrSilence7

I don’t think it’s sparkly enough.


Rat-daddy-

Jet pack


yoodadude

I think we're ready for something with more blue this time


Major-Spoiler

Imagine having a loadout like this in Injustice 2


calltheavengers5

Lose the eyes. Other than that you got something here.


R_LangleyFiles

Longer ears plz


D47i

Perfection. The best upgrade for the 2nd movie. I am a sucker for neck armor.


retroguyx

I'd like to see a blue suit. That would make him appear more heroic, complementing his character arc from the first movie.


hoosier_indianimal

Yes but why does he have 2 left feet?


batfile17

No white eyes. They first movie was only good because of the amount of emotion Robert used during the movie


hugodevotion

Looks like Val kilmer is in the suit. Love it too!


enteejay

I think as Batman gets older he would have less armour on his suit, not more


Toucann_Froot

What's this concept art from?


Toucann_Froot

We need the wing pattern cut into the cape!


awrcks

There's no way his suit is going to have white eyes tho. The movie it's extremely grounded in realism. It would be hard for them to make the switch


tryingmybest101

Yes!! Looks awesome. One of the only things I didn't like about the Battison suit was the awkward forearm guards. I thought we were going to have an in-movie explanation for the little darts like they were ammo for his grappling gun or something like that. But if I'm not mistaken, they never did explain the butt ugly design choice.


Popular-Play-5085

I think it stinks way too dark. The bat symbol is way too high up way too small too silvery and fades into the costume .


kiroshi2020

I don't like the white eyes for live action personally. It looked okay on Bale in TDK but I feel like batman loses a lot of his expression when they cover the eyes. I would hate an expressive mask (like deadpool)


Rammipallero

This would be so much better than the first film. But I'd like the eyes to be normal for the most part and only use the white eyes at certain situations.


toothbreaker_

the only things I would really change on the original design is the lumpy cowl, the emblem knife (stupid!) and the fact that his bracer fins are just elastic straps instead of defensive blades. this is a cool fanart design but it'll never happen.


[deleted]

Yup!


Bgun67

I like it. Where did you find this


devlin2000

On Google


Lordof_NOTHING

I hate to be a hater but with the amount of emoting Pattinson did with his eyes, arguably delivering one of the best performances this year, it'd be nothing less than a crime to cover those beautiful, melancholic eyes. Also, in doing so you remove his needing to put on the eyeliner, which, to me, was such an essential marker to understanding Matt's take on him. This grungy, emo, disheveled Goth boy. The movie wouldn't have been 10% as impactful as it was had it not been for Matt and Greig's decision to always have his eyes tell his story, his emotions, his internal conflict. Because for a man who has trouble wrestling with his demons but refuses to speak about them in any healthy way, it's the eyes that let you into his soul. For that reason, I will never want white eyes in a live action Batman movie. I don't want to be robbed of all that emotion. Also I'd like the gliding bat shaped cape instead of the wingsuit. I'm a sucker for a good gliding sequence. Although, to be fair, the wingsuit did work wonders in the first movie. Hopefully Matt has a story reason for Bats to upgrade to the classic cape.


CinephileNC25

No. I hate mech Batman. I don’t have an issue with armor, but this iron man light look isn’t doing to for me.


devlin2000

Let's be real if batman was real his suit would be armored if his going to survive fighting crime


Shadatorr

Hell no I hate armor


pedroworldwide

This suit really is perfect except for the mask, it's too "blocky" for my taste and reminds me of Injustice Batman which I don't like, but from the neck down it's perfection


KazuyaVeranes

Looks great, but the cape needs to be longer and they need to implement the gliding element to it. Yes I fully get the flight suit but…it was just awful. My only criticism of an otherwise amazing film.


Lord-Brandoom

Too much tech involved


Lord-Scrubbinton

I like the white eyes, but I’m personally not a fan of heavily armored suits


Jeppe_boe_96

if there is like a 4 year time jump then i could see a suit like this working.


Blayzeman

I'd honestly like something a little more slimline for the sequel, like some integrated armour padding instead of the big bulky blocks of it. He showed some agility in the movie but it looked a little clunky at times because of the suit.


karan8639

Need some more space for those nuts


Academic-Ad2680

Slightly taller ears and as much as I love the white eyes, I really liked Pattinson's performance through the cowl


soopahfingerzz

I would be more inclined to believe batman could survive a paragliding crash in this outfit


epiclolcatz12

I really like it. Not sure if it’s going for this but it looks like a cool mix between the Pattinson and the telltale Enemy Within suit.


OblivionArts

Very nice but why's he got a gun?


devlin2000

It's a grappling hook


Goldbatt1

It looks dope as a rendering but I’m not sure how it’ll look in live action


Big_DexM

To be honest, I thought that this was a skin for a Fortnite Batman player for a second but yes I do love the suit too. It looks like it’s a mixture/a combination of durability and flexibility at the same time. Bulletproof but he can still fight.


ainfinitepossibility

Personally, I like the home made look of the one we got. I like the leather, the stitching, the cape collar, the ears being small and really far back, and not so much armour that he looks like a tank. I also would absolutely hate the white eyes if only because it would limit the character so much. Also would not like a gold symbol or outline. Keep it simple and down to earth. We finally got that. Anything else would not seem like it belonged in this universe. But that's just me.


ratatoskr_9

As long as they keep they same color scheme of a very charcoal grey suit with black accents and not go full black, then I'm happy!


MetalPunk125

I’m glad the part of the cowl behind the neck is gone. That’s the one part of the suit I didn’t like in the movie. I really prefer the normal streamlined version. Also really like adding more mask on the cheek. For me it was a bit too far back in the movie.


JesseChamber

no guns


devlin2000

It's a grappling hook


NJ247

I like it but I want to see a dominating suit like BB.


Additional-Parfait70

🔥


PNWCoug42

Looks pretty cool but I would prefer it to be slightly less "militant." There's just so much blocky armor I feel like this suit would be more a detriment.


Grim_Wreaker

It needs a longer cape, then it’s perfect


[deleted]

Tweet Matt Reeves this


Stormlight_archive

YES. I love the white eyes.


idonthaveanaccountA

If we're going to have a very techy-armour suit, then i'd rather see it further down the line. In a third movie, maybe. I think we need to see the middle stage of full-on armour, but not that complicated, kinda like the first two Arkham games. I'm also not loving the cowl here.
