Matt Reeves laid out the entire story for his take on THE BATMAN, and it's going to be epic. Described as a detective story, Robert Pattinson sets out to solve some heinous murders in Gotham City. Inspired by the movie CHINATOWN, this version of the caped crusader will not be an origins story but as someone coming into his abilities.
