This time around, we’ve got more of Robert Pattinson’s Batman’s suit and the first look at a new Batcycle!
Over a week ago, the director revealed the first ever look of Robert suited up as the Dark Knight in a camera test video.
However, the initial video only gave fans a glimpse of the suit’s chest and cowl and it did very little to show us what the actual suit would look like in full.

Now, as production and filming for The Batman has begun in Glasgow, Scotland, we get to see the new suit in full and even get the first glimpses of Batman’s new Batcycle!

According to Polygon, photographers were able to snap pictures of Robert’s stunt double dressed in the full suit as he zipped around the Glasgow catacombs on a bat-shaped motorcycle.
“The motorcycle sports swept back bat ears that would surely by incredibly painful if you came to a sudden stop, while the full costume has some surprising additions: Wrist guars that appear to be full of some kind of bolt or projectile,” Polygon states. “The ears on the cowl taper to a quite slender point, and the whole outfit seems more pieced together from repurposed tactical items than created from the ground up.”

Fans however are still split between their love and hate for Batman’s suit in the movie that’s set to be released in 2021.
I’m really loving how Robert Pattinson’s Batman suit seems to be inspired by Batman: Arkham Origins#TheBatman pic.twitter.com/6aK61AQKjS

Considering how many suits Batman has had, this is a new look for him and I kinda like it.

Everything is hideous.

He looks like someone who collected some parts of Batman's suit from previous battles around Gotham and built his own batsuit.
Mask sucks.
Shame. I was rooting for this actually.
...maybe it's just like a Ironman. That's not the final costume.
New batsuit pics out, and I'm kinda diggin it.

It's very "function above all" looking, and for a dude that's MOSTLY about night detectove work and stealth, it makes sense, and looks neat.
I like hyper practical batman suit pic.twitter.com/VsA87VIefH
Should be going to bed but been seeing a lot of criticism on the Batman suit so just wanna help show the power of "stuntmen costumes" and translating to big screens bc there's a difference btwn those & the costumes used for "hero shots/medium/close-ups." pic.twitter.com/lvpAefUfu7
