A newly released still from the upcoming DC film The Batman teases a rooftop meeting between Catwoman and Bruce Wayne. Having topped IMDB's list of 2022's most anticipated releases, Matt Reeves' The Batman is set to put a fresh spin on the beloved comic-book hero. Robert Pattinson will star as Bruce Wayne in a story that is set to take inspiration from the classic Batman comics Year One and The Long Halloween. The film will focus on the billionaire's early years as Gotham's caped crusader as he comes face to face with the twisted serial killer The Riddler (played by Paul Dano).

Pattinson and Dano will be joined by an impressive supporting cast that boasts the likes of Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright, and Andy Serkis. Alongside them, Zoë Kravitz will star as Selina Kyle, AKA Catwoman, with Kravitz recently confirming that the film will also act as an origin story for her anti-hero, sharing that audiences will witness her become a "femme-fatale," a word that has been synonymous with the character of Catwoman across both her onscreen and comic book appearances. Teasers for The Batman have hinted at some sort of alliance being formed between both Catwoman and Batman,as the pair seek to take down The Riddler as he wreaks havoc throughout their city.

Now, a brand new still from The Batman has been released, offering a fresh tease at the sort of dynamic fans can expect between the pair of costumed vigilantes. Released by USA Today as part of their list of 2022's must-see movies, the image shows both Selina Kyle and Bruce Wayne dressed as their respective heroic counterparts, in what appears to be a potentially tense discussion. Bruce has a grip on Selina's arm as Gotham City can be seen in the background. Check out the image below.

The scene that is featured within this new still has been teased a number of times throughout The Batman's promotional run and is among a number of clips and images that have been released in the run-up to Pattinson's DCEU debut. With the film's release now just weeks away, another newly released image recently gave fans an up-close look at Pattinson's Batman suit. The iconic suit, alongside the hero's famed method of transportation, the Batmobile, are two details that can become somewhat divisive talking points when it comes to each new iteration of the character.

This exciting new image is only likely to increase the anticipation that surrounds the film's release and with such a high concentration of big names on the cast list, it's not hard to see why many can't wait to see what The Batman has in store. Catwoman and Batman have historically shared a somewhat tumultuous relationship throughout their various appearances together, and so while it may seem as though the pair could be working together in this new tale, who knows what will become of their relationship as the weight of protecting Gotham City begins to take its toll on them both. As for now, fans do not have long to wait as The Batman releases in theatres on March 4, 2022.
