"It was a struggle for me to get a performance past the suit … it was frustrating until I realized that my role was to show up and do what I was told to."
"You also can't hear anything and after a while, people stop talking to you. But, once he got on set, "whatever boyish excitement I had going in was crushed by the reality of the Batsuit." He explained that you can "barely move" in the costume, which also required other people's help to get him to stand up and sit down. In the doc, Kilmer said he signed onto "Batman Forever" without even reading a script. "I really wanted to be Batman as a child, but the actual, the reality of being on set is quite different." It’s kind of perfect considering Batman Forever and the upcoming The Batman both have Riddler as a villain."There was a line in the movie, that I really like, that's like, 'Every boy wants to be Batman, like they actually want to be him, but they don't necessarily want to play him in the movie,'" Jack told TooFab in a recent interview. There’s a lot of suits for Batman over the years, including for Michael Keaton, George Clooney and more recently through the Dark Knight trilogy, Christian Bale, but it so happened to be Kilmer's. Warner Bros must have had Val Kilmer’s Batman suit (or one of them anyway) lying around for Robert Pattinson to try on for the screen test.
When Rob and I first got together, we’d had all these conversations and then just by virtue of what it is, it’s Batman, the studio said well, ‘We always do a screen test.’ Kind of like, Rob did first by himself and literally was wearing, I believe Val Kilmer’s bat suit, which by the way, the moment you put it on, it was a crazy moment. Ahead of revealing the jaw-dropping second trailer for the film, Reeves recalled how he tested Pattinson to be the next Bruce Wayne. Writer/director Matt Reeves, Robert Pattinson and Zoë Kravitz were in attendance at the DC Fandome event, which was packed with massive reveals for upcoming movies and TV shows from the comic book universe.
