The Batman Set Photos Have Fans Excited for a Motorcycle-Riding Batman

The Internet has been set ablaze with chatter about The Batman this week, as the new year has brought us the first photos from the set of Matt Reeves’ reboot of the iconic comic book character. The Robert Pattinson-led blockbuster has started filming in London and fans in the area have been hovering near the set to try and get a peek at what’s to come. While none of the images have been particularly exciting or revealing, one image seems to have delivered the first look at Pattinson as Bruce Wayne in the film, and it could hint toward one of The Batman‘s bigger plot points.

A certain photo that arrived on social media Monday morning shows a man that appears to be Robert Pattinson sitting on a motorcycle. It’s hard to tell if it’s definitely Pattinson, since his nose and mouth are completely covered, but the hair and eyes make it pretty clear. At some point in The Batman. Bruce Wayne will be riding a motorcycle, and that has fans freaking out.

Pattinson isn’t donning a Batsuit or anything spectacular in the photo, so the motorcycle may not have anything to do with the plot at all. But there are plenty of fans comparing the image to the Year One storyline in Scott Snyder’s beloved Batman comics run. Of course, all of these folks are also hoping to see that entire storyline make its way into the movie in some form or fashion.

Regardless of what it means for the film, people are all in on the idea of Bruce Wayne on a bike in The Batman.
