Leaks surrounding The Batman offer a potentially controversial storyline, one that involves the death of a major Bat-character.
A user on Twitter posted cryptic tweets and then deleted them, but not before Redditors were able to view them and post about it.
It’s claimed that The Batman features a controversial storyline that sees Alfred getting killed off in the movie.
While the Twitter user didn’t specifically mention details, it’s said the Twitter user said that he saw it coming and that people are going to freak out.
It’s further said the Twitter user tweeted it is something that is comic book accurate and that it is not about whether or not Batman kills in the film.
Some Redditors guessed that it meant the Robert Pattinson Batman would be gay, but that is not comic book accurate, which led to the general agreement that Alfred will die.
Andy Serkis is playing Alfred in The Batman, with Redditors speculating that due to Serkis’ involvement with Venom and other flicks, that his Alfred appearance in The Batman is short and that Serkis is only onboard for one movie.
Here is a pic from the Batman comics by Tom King where Alfred dies:
