TheBatman will put a unique spin on Alfred Pennyworth's relationship with Bruce Wayne, as Andy Serkis revealed he won't be much of a father figure.
Andy Serkis opens up about Alfred Pennyworth's role in The Batman, explaining he isn't much of a father-figure here. This week will finally see the release of the most anticipated DC film of the year: The Batman. Directed by Matt Reeves, the movie offers an updated, darker take on the iconic DC hero, now played by Robert Pattinson. The Batman was once slated for release in June 2021, but delays caused by the coronavirus pandemic led Warner Bros. to push it back a handful of times.
"He is an ex-soldier. He's worked for the secret service, but one thing he isn't, is a father or possess the emotional toolbox to be a father. That is really what's at the core of this telling of the tale of our version of their relationship and I'm thankful that it is a fresh view, really."
