Talking 'The Batman' With Director Matt Reeves

The Batman starring Robert Pattinson is finally hitting theaters! We sat down with director Matt Reeves to discuss the making of the movie, living up to Batman’s iconic name, his choice to skip the Wayne origins story, and much more.

Also this week, we talk about the film’s box office predictions, the SAG Awards and what they mean for the Oscars, and reflect on the career of Ava Duvernay thus far.
