As The Batman gets ready to have a sizable presence at Saturday’s DC FanDome event, the film’s official Twitter account and director Matt Reeves have been dropping tiny nuggets of Bat-gold to build up hype for what is almost certainly going to be a new trailer release.
First out of the gate is a look at the new Bat-signal, courtesy of a brief clip featuring Robert Pattinson‘s Batman delivering the ominous line, “It’s not just a signal; it’s a warning,” in his best Bat-voice.
“It’s not just a signal; it’s a warning.”

Up next, Reeves shared a shot from the imminent new trailer that shows Pattinson’s Batman watching the sun rise on Gotham City after a night of presumably punching the crap out of evil:
Good Morning, from Gotham City… Can’t wait to show you more at #DCFanDome this Saturday… #TheBatman #TrailerShot pic.twitter.com/5IRaABRwk6

And, as of this post, the latest Bat-goodie is a set of character posters that includes the best look at Paul Dano’s Riddler yet. Clearly, he’ll be taking the character in a very different direction than Jim Carrey’s performance in Batman Forever. Or not? Who knows? Maybe he’ll bust out tights halfway through.

In addition to the trailer drop, Pattinson and co-star Zoë Kravitz will reportedly make an appearance at DC FanDome where we’ll presumably get a closer look at her new spin on Catwoman. The fan event kicks off at 1 PM EST/10 AM PST on October 16.
