In about a month’s time, Robert Pattinson has gone from zero to hero as the Twilight actor is looking pretty jacked for his role in The Batman.
It was reported by Grace Randolph that Robert Pattinson needed a few more weeks to put on the right amount of weight as reportedly Pattinson was having trouble bulking up, which was said to have caused a delay in production.
However, it seems all that Robert Pattinson needed to become the hero we all need and deserve is a few weeks as an image posted to Twitter reveals Robert Pattinson looking as if he has definitely bulked up for the role of DC’s new Dark Knight.
Update: As I questioned, the image is a fake, was photoshopped, and has been removed, so we’ll have to see how Pattinson looks when he’s spotted on set filming.
Update #2: You can check out a legit leaked image here of what appears to be a Riddler victim.
Original article continues:
About a month ago, Robert Pattinson was spotted out in the wild at the Dior Homme fashion show, but he was wearing a heavier leather coat, so it was hard to gauge his frame.
An image did surface at the same time of the 33-year-old actor in a t-shirt where he still looked rather skinny, but from the look of this new image (assuming it’s legit), Robert Pattinson managed to bulk up in a short time frame.
The recent set pics did have me wondering how Pattinson is going to look in regards to putting on the muscle, as the stunt double looked like a rather big dude, but again, this pic here makes Robert Pattinson out to be pretty jacked, so apparently no worries.
Hopefully, we’ll get a better look once Pattinson is spotted filming on set.
Check out the images below for a comparison between the month’s time frame where it looks like Pattinson went on “whatever diet” Dwayne Johnson must be following, eh?
“I’m Batman!” – indeed!
