‘The Batman’ Star Robert Pattinson Tests Positive For COVID-19

Production for the upcoming movie, The Batman, has been halted after its leading star, Robert Pattinson, tested positive for COVID-19.

“A member of ‘The Batman’ production has tested positive for Covid-19 and is isolating in accordance with established protocols,” a Warner Bros. spokesperson said in a statement. “Filming is temporarily paused.”

It only reinforces what he knows about Gotham, but opens up a whole world of corruption that went much further.”
