Fans were able to get a look at the cast of The Batman when Robert Pattinson, Zoe Kravitz and Colin Farrell were spotted filming the Matt Reeves superhero reboot.

The scene, which was shot in Liverpool’s St George’s Hall yesterday (12 October), looked to be set in the aftermath of a funeral.

Farrell, who made headlines last month when he debuted his transformation into The Penguin, looked unrecognisable as the villainous Oswald Cobblepot.

Farrell wore so much prosthetic make-up that his co-stars didn’t recognise the actor when he arrived on set.

The 44-year-old wore a black leather coat over his suit and tie, donning facial prosthetics and a fake receding hairline.

Kravitz also made an appearance as Selina Kyle (also known as Catwoman), wearing a black trench coat, matching headpiece, fishnet tights and knee-high boots.

Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne was seen stepping out of a black Corvette. Fans also spotted a body double wearing a face mask seated inside the car.

The leading actor tested positive for Covid-19 in early September, forcing The Batman to pause production for several weeks.

It was confirmed in late September that filming had restarted, with Pattinson having tested negative for the illness.

Filming on The Batman was previously suspended for six months amid the first outbreak of Covid-19 worldwide.

The Batman will be released on 4 March 2022, after its previous 2021 release date was pushed back earlier this month.
