Filming continues in the UK on The Batman where it is being said Bruce Wayne gets mugged by a gang while jogging in Gotham City.
According to Just Jared, who posted a bunch of set pics, the scene being filmed features a stunt double for lead Robert Pattinson who is mugged.
Checking out the pics and set video (see below), we see a gang of thugs who wears white and black makeup where one of the thugs punches Bruce Wayne while another thug films the scene on his phone.
Worth a mention is that the phone looks to be from the modern-day, so again, it seems as if speculation surrounding the film taking place in the past is wrong.
I was actually told by DC insiders that The Batman is involved with a DCEU reboot.
Another pic shows that Bruce Wayne is apparently unconscious on the ground with the group of thugs laughing… but little do they know who they are dealing with, eh?
Recently also saw details on a huge disaster scene.
