Having sworn off big budget blockbusters for almost a decade following the conclusion of The Twilight Saga, Robert Pattinson has softened his stance in a major way. Having stolen virtually every scene he’s in as the only source of levity in Christoper Nolan’s otherwise solemn and straight faced Tenet, many of the actor’s critics were also forced to eat their words when the stunning first teaser trailer for The Batman arrived.
The footage was rapturously received, but things took a turn for the worse when the movie was forced to halt production shortly after resuming when the leading man tested positive for COVID-19. Shooting is set to get back underway over the next couple of weeks, and now that the trailer has exponentially raised expectations the 34 year-old is under even more pressure than before to deliver.
Pattinson is expected to headline at least three solo movies for director Matt Reeves, but we’ve heard from our sources – the same ones that told us Ewan McGregor would be returning as Obi-Wan Kenobi months before the news was officially revealed – that the former Harry Potter star could yet end up joining another one of Hollywood’s most iconic franchises.
According to our intel, Kevin Feige is interested in having Pattinson join the cast of his in-development Star Wars movie. The Marvel Studios head honcho wants his time in a galaxy far, far away to focus largely on original characters, having been keenly aware of the backlash that greeted the Sequel Trilogy’s over-reliance on nostalgia and familiar faces.
Feige is said to be a huge fan of Pattinson’s reinvention as a dedicated and committed talent, and sees him as the ideal candidate to join a Star Wars project that still remains shrouded in mystery, but will no doubt look to emulate the success he brought to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
