VIDEO. On the poster of Batman, Robert Pattinson and Zoë Kravitz tell how they apprehend their characters

Robert Pattinson and Zoë Kravitz are the new Batman and Catwoman. According to them, the universe of Batman is particularly emblematic. “It’s been around for 80 years and it has such a big place in world culture, it’s not like we’re doing just any movie remake“, believes Robert Pattinson, the interpreter of Batman. Regarding Catwoman, his interpreter Zoë Kravitz is delighted to see that each actress has made a different character of it by really appropriating it. And for her, to slip into the skin of Catwoman was as frightening as it was empowering.”At first, you’re super happy, you can’t believe it, then you realize that you’re really going to have to do it, that people are going to see and judge your performance, and you’re very scared, then you alternate constantly in between“, confides the actress.

Also, for both stars, Batman stands out from other superhero movies. “They are very accessible villains, it’s very easy to imagine that they really exist“, explains Robert Pattinson. Finally, by embodying these cult characters, the two stars join a long line of actors, but they have found new ways to bring them to life. “Finding your place is a real challenge and knowing that everyone is going to compare you to them is scary.“, concludes Robert Pattinson.
