Robert Pattinson fires back at trolls over ‘The Batman’ physique claims
Robert Pattinson breaks silence on ‘The Batman’ body controversy
Robert Pattinson has taken a brutal dig at trolls who accused him of skipping training for The Batman.
During a recent conversation at GQ magazine’s summer cover party for The Odyssey, the 40-year-old British actor dismissed claims questioning his physique in the 2022 film, noting that the speculation was completely false.
"[Everyone was like], 'You didn't work out at all.' I worked out every fucking day," Pattinson said.
He added, "Even after that, I still look like I didn't work out. I worked out twice a day at, like, three o'clock in the morning. I'm like, It's just because I said it in an interview [once that exercise was uncool]. I was trying to sound cool!"
In the meantime, the Twilight star is set to reprise his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman in the highly anticipated sequel to Matt Reeves’ 2022 film.
The forthcoming movie will also star Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan, though Pattinson appears to be one of the last to know the full details of the project.
"I just heard from the stunt guy the other day. He said, 'Ooh, 11 weeks of nights.' I'm like, 'Excuse me?' I'm like, 'No one's even sent me a schedule,'" he remarked
When is The Batman Part II releasing?
The Batman Part II, led by Robert Pattinson, is officially slated for a theatrical release on October 1, 2027.
