When it was first announced that Pattinson would be playing Batman, many were concerned and did not feel as if he was a suitable or good choice to play the role. However, many still supported the film and were excited to see how he would execute it. From the trailer, it looks like the director made a great choice choosing Pattinson, as many noted on Twitter.

Twitter was also stoked to see that Catwoman would not only be in the film but seemed she would be in a large portion of the film and were excited to see the two characters interact. Many also made jokes about Kravitz’s role as Selina Kyle, as she is stunning, and how they would be unable to fight crime if they were Batman with Catwoman.
