The Batman has a new TV spot and it is an amalgamation of all the trailers before it, condensed perfectly to fit in about a minute-long clip.
The clip, titled Vengeance, shows Gotham city in chaos with the Riddler teasing the Dark Knight with countless riddles. There are murders, mysteries, explosions amidst which the Bat-Signal lights up the sky.
The teaser’s music has a fast tempo which conveys the urgency in which the Riddler is closing in, trapping the superhero in his games. Alfred warns Bruce. There’s Catwoman and Penguin, too. The clip ends with a chilling laugh.
These are all familiar shots from previous trailers. However, a fresh new look at Riddler’s getup stands out as he holds a huge rifle standing at the edge, looking down.
Previously, this costume design was a topic of discussion as it completely changed the Riddler’s look. Matt Reeves had talked about the changes being inspired by the Zodiac Killer.
As the release date inches closer, fans have been freaking out at how good the trailer looks in the cinemas. Twitter might be the quickest place when it comes to new reveals as various tweets spotted that the film’s runtime has been listed as 176 minutes on IMDb.
Another user @WayneG1939 might’ve spotted another big reveal which hints at Luke Roberts, who appeared in Game of Thrones, playing Thomas Wayne as he was seen reading Batman: Sins of the Father for research on the character.
But it’s not just fans who are thrilled. Oreo recently launched special edition cookies to celebrate The Batman with its own launch film featuring Batman silhouette, Bat-Mobile, and Bat-Signal made out of its black cookies and white cream.
The limited-edition Oreo packaging has puzzling riddles on it, in true Riddler style. If you manage to decipher it, you can win an exclusive virtual look at the Batcave and learn secrets that only Alfred and Batman know.
The Batman is currently set for a theatrical release on March 4, 2022.
