#Robert Pattinson Would Love For A Batman Sequel To Adapt One Infamous Comic Storyline

Of course, that darkness is the appeal for Reeves and Pattinson. In their interview with ComicBook.com, Pattinson even made a joke about the character’s age, saying:

Yeah but he has to be 13. That’s the only way I’ll accept it! No, I love ‘Death in the Family’ and stuff. I think it would be so cool. Also, people are so scared of it, that it’s kind of exciting. I think it would be a really fun addition.

Reeves fully agreed with Pattinson, adding:

I also like ‘Death in the Family’ and I think the idea of being able to approach some of the stories and think, ‘How can we do this in a way that feels fresh and grounded? Look at the scary thing and see if there’s a way to do it. The question is, would we be too scared? I think we should try.

Whether or not audiences would be too scared to watch a teen get murdered on screen is a fair question, but man it would be cool if they made a full horror Batman movie. I’m talking an R-rated, transgressive, New French Extremism-style horror romp with our favorite emo Caped Crusader. If Pattinson and Reeves can take it all the way, they might be able to generate more buzz and attention than Christopher Nolan’s “Dark Knight” trilogy, which is basically the bar for all new Batman adaptations. I mean, I don’t think it’s actually going to happen, but it would absolutely rule.
