Robert Pattinson, set to reprise his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman in The Batman Part II, may soon expand his superhero repertoire by stepping into the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
According to reports from industry insider DanielRPK, Pattinson recently met with Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige to discuss potential roles within the MCU. While no details have been confirmed, this meeting has sparked widespread speculation about which Marvel projects might involve the Twilight and Tenet star.
Robert Pattinson’s Possible DC-to-Marvel Crossover
Pattinson wouldn’t be the first actor to work in both the DC and Marvel universes. His The Batman co-star Jeffrey Wright, for example, lends his voice to The Watcher in Marvel’s animated series What If?. This trend of actors crossing between the two franchises has become increasingly common in recent years.

I don’t believe it. And I hope not. Love RPatz, don’t want him to get into another franchise. He’s a great Batman and more importantly, a serious actor.
