Pattinson Defends His Batman Training as Sequel Production Restarts

His new home-gym routine arrives as shooting in the UK moves forward with a release date set but some shoot timings still unfinalized.

Overview

  • Robert Pattinson told GQ he trained intensely for the first Batman, working out daily and sometimes twice a day, and said an earlier remark that he didn’t train was a joke made to “sound cool.”
  • The actor has installed a home gym in Beverly Hills to prepare physically for The Batman: Part II.
  • Multiple outlets report filming has begun in the UK and Warner Bros. currently lists an October 1, 2027 theatrical release for the sequel.
  • Pattinson said a stunt coordinator mentioned “11 weeks of nights,” but he also said he has not yet received an official shooting schedule, leaving some internal timing unclear.
  • Long delays to the sequel prompted Pattinson to take several other high-profile roles between films, a gap that has shaped public expectations and his current push to change perceptions about his Batman physique.
