The Batman Shuts Down Production (Again)

The Batman has shut down production -- again -- due to the coronavirus pandemic. Warner Bros. announced the temporary work stoppage in a press statement revealing that a crew member had tested positive: "A member of The Batman production has tested positive for Covid-19, and is isolating in accordance with established protocols.  Filming is temporarily paused." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/08/23/the-batman-trailer-breakdown-riddler-penguin-catwoman-and-no-more-lies-explained"] The Batman first shut down production in England last March when industry-wide shutdowns began due to the spread of the deadly COVID-19 virus. Director Matt Reeves disclosed that filming on The Batman was only about 25% complete at the time of the March stoppage. Since then, The Batman made a huge splash at August's DC FanDome, revealing the movie's intense first trailer that left us wondering about its mysterious villain and the whereabouts of the Joker, while also clarifying when it's set. Here's how you can help, and stay safe, during the coronavirus pandemic. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-batman-official-trailer-1-stills&captions=true"]
