[@marsquidward]

If they didn’t have their partners I’d totally ship them together. They seem like they have a really cool friendship

[@wholethedogsout880]

same and so tru

[@jakemcgowan5686]

There’s still 2 more sequels for a chance for them at least

[@justinmj6586]

Cuz that's worked out so well for Rob before and wouldn't lead to very undesirable comparisons for them and the films. How far does he have to run from a certain franchise until you get it.

[@rocketscott]

@@justinmj6586 damn someone didn't eat their Wheaties today

[@a.madison9625]

@@jakemcgowan5686 No, and that's so disrespectful to them and the people they share their lives with. He's said Suki Waterhouse is his soulmate and Zoe seems very happy with Channing Tatum. They're actors, they have their own personal lives.

[@ele9875]

All i am gonna say is that zoe is very comforting parthner in these interviews for rob bc she's always there when he gets akward and changes topic of discussion suddenly. She plays it cool and makes him feel like it was nothing bc at the end of the day it was but people with anxiety (me lol) tend to make situations bigger than it actually was and punish ourselves for "mistakes". So i love her for it

[@Noone.i]

You can see it from rob's aura, he looks relax. Bcz Zoe is such a good friend. But Zoe seems tired bcz she has to keep up with the questions and Rob's answers as well 😂

[@emmabauer1906]

They are hilarious together. Can't wait to see this. 🦇🐆

[@butjay11]

Wow, such great chemistry. I love meeting people who can make you feel like they've known you for years as if you grew up together. Zoe gives me those vibes and I think Rob is somewhat shy but can break out of his shell when he's around someone with great energy like Zoe. I can't wait to see this movie!🥰🥰

Thats the Bahamian in her. I can relate.

The way I was already smiling like an idiot at these two 10 seconds in. Man if it doesn’t work out with their current partners these two could be soulmates 😭

bro I’ve never seen so many comments about chemistry before. there are so many and rightly so!! they’re chemistry is absolutely amazing and i can’t wait to see their great work :))

[@fandomcomics8702]

They look so good together

[@phrophannus]

I loved every single character in this movie but damn, those two were something else. Pattinson and Kravitz did an amazing performance and I hope to see more.

[@lola3498]

It looks like they are good friends. I am sure it helps a great deal in terms of trusting each other when filming and then during press tours. Can’t wait to see this movie soon!

[@dtbffe8306]

The best part about this batman is that the suit isn’t corny and the voice isn’t corny

[@BatmanKnightfan]

That Batman voice at the end. Perfect

[@Daaanleeey]

Ugh they are soulmates I’m obsessed 😭

[@3bellam]

Why did Rob's soft little "thanks" make me want to cry. That was so sweet :')

[@pattychurra]

Just seeing this now, way late, but I love these two talking each other up and complimenting each other's work. Such a cool, wholesome dynamic, so nice to see

[@heatherdoute6218]

Rob usually has awkward chemistry with people...this was awesome. Only Rob though would talk about how hard it is to take a leak in the Bat costume.

[@Chartovar]

Love them both… can’t wait to see the movie

[@garrettcecil9186]

Loving Kravitzon and their chemistry off screen. Can't wait for The Batman!

Fcking have mercy on these actors lmao . Can't imagine having to answer the same question over and over in every single interview. I know that they kinda get paid to go to these interviews before the movie and they "must" stay in that mood but even we viewers get frustrated.

[@theblanketstealer]

i love these two together so much

[@udinelumbu2351]

These two are definately bangin...🤨

How crazy is it that this is kind of their entrance back into mainstream since the movies they did as young actors.

This is such an underrated film. The whole singular idea, by Matt Reeves, that this is a man who is unhinged and unhealthily obsessed with fighting the criminal element at night who is constantly beating criminals to a pulp with his bare hands and with his unlimited amount of vast resources at his disposal. All he sees in the criminal element, in this corrupt town that his family helped to build and found dating back to the late 1800s, are the people who killed his parents as a young child making him an orphan. So, he dons the mantle of that which he fears the most, in the form of the Batman, after training for the majority of his life to rid his city of the evil that took his parent's lives. He dosen't know who was responsible for killing Thomas and Martha Wayne so every criminal he sees, to him, is the criminal that killed his parents on that fateful night when he was only 10 years old. He is addicted to this mission, like a drug, so as both Bruce and Batman, he spends all of his time, trying to succeed in this impossible task he has set up for himself. That's why he never sees the light of day as Billionaire Bruce Wayne and is a social outcast and pariah. He is a man driven by vengeance; by revenge. By the end of this journey, as we see Bruce on a physical, mental, emotional and psychological level and transform from a young, naive, impatient man who makes mistakes still early in his career as a crime fighter we see him then become something else by the end...a symbol of hope, an ideal, a form of inspiration that makes criminals terrified to step out at night and commit their atrocities that makes Gotham City one of the worst places to call home. A city with a history and a foundation steeped in corruption and crime that ties back to the Wayne family and and their vast fortune. It also plants the seeds that will give him the inspiration to step out in the light of day to transform into the billionaire, playboy industrialist more interested in dating models and driving fast cars in order to hide in plain sight so no one would be able to distinguish Bruce Wayme is actually the Batman. A man consumed by vengeance who transforms into a symbol of hope. Obviously a film inspired by the comic book mythos and Arkham video game series and Batman animated series from the 1990s. Ironically, a film consisting of character arc transformations and worldbuilding moments that is actually one of the most faithful Batman comic book movies to the original source material in the 1940s. Such as Detective comics issue 27 from 1937 and batman issue 1 in 1940 created by Bob kane, Bill finger and Jerry Robinson. Then, the new 52 comics such as court of owls and Zero year by tomeu morey, john ottley, Jim lee, Scott Snyder. Batman year one by jim lee, David Mazuchelli and Frank miller as well as Batman: the long halloween and Batman: ego and other tales. This essay is lterally just scratching the surface of why it's actually one of the best batman films up their with the likes of the Dark knight from 2008.
