The actor said, "The first time I saw Rob in the Batsuit, it was the first time I saw the Batman. I pulled up to the set, we were doing the warehouse scene just before the car chase."

Revealing his first reaction to the same, he added, "I got out of the car — in full costume, full makeup, ready to shoot — and I looked up on the roof. They were just finishing a shot up on the roof with Batman, and swear to God: he was looking down, the cape was blowing in the wind, he was backlit, I could see the cowl, the two ears sticking up. It was two o'clock in the morning, and I just thought, 'Oh, my God, there it is.' Not even 'he,' but 'it.'"

The actor further added how the character has so much history and everyone has a different relationship with this character and hence he maintained that seeing for the first time was "cool."

In the Matt Reeves directorial, Farrell has been cast as the supervillain Oswald Cobblepot-Penguin. The film also stars Paul Dano as the other lead villain, the Riddler whereas Zoe Kravitz is seen in the role of Catwoman ake Selina Kyle.
