"I trained twice every damn day." Robert Pattinson has exploded against the fans of 'The Batman'

If you run into Robert Pattinson on the street these days, I assure you that the last thing you want to do is mess with him, because, as he has stated, he is getting ripped. But really ripped, you know: indie cinema is great, but if he’s going to be Batman, he needs to have muscles even in his ankles. And after part of the audience criticized him for not looking fit enough in The Batman, he has worked really hard for the sequel.
Holy bat-training!
Pattinson himself has acknowledged “Everyone was like ‘You haven’t trained at all!’. I trained every damn day. Even after that, it still looked like I hadn’t. I trained twice a day, at three in the morning. Just because I once said in an interview that working out wasn’t cool… I was trying to look cool!”. Imagine, if it bothered him then, what he must have done for this sequel: a total beast.
That said, he will have to show off his muscles without sunlight, because he will hardly see it for three months: “The other day I heard the head of specialists saying ‘Ooh, 11 weeks all night.’ And I told him, ‘Excuse me? No one has even sent me a schedule.” Things about filming, which have schedules even for the electricians but the main actor is taken for granted. He will dry his tears with bills, I suppose.
Still, as Pattinson claims, his most exhausting shoot in recent years will not be this one, but that of The Odyssey: “One day I sat at the hotel bar after filming, people started to arrive and I have never seen people so tired. And we were only a third of the way through. I came in at that moment, and they had already been in two countries… By the end of each day they were broken”. Ah, cinema, the mecca of happiness!
