Robert Pattinson has been tested positive for COVID-19, causing filming for “The Batman” to be halted just a few days after resuming outside of London.

Warner Bros. released a statement saying, “A member of The Batman production has tested positive for COVID-19, and is isolating in accordance with established protocols. Filming is temporarily paused.”

Warner Bros. did not confirm the sick cast member’s identity. However, a number of Hollywood media publications, including Vanity Fair and Variety have confirmed that the 34-year-old actor had caught the virus.

The production halt will depend on how long the “Tenet” actor can self-isolate and recover. Previously, the production was 7 weeks into filming before shutting down with other entertainment companies in March due to the pandemic.

Vanity Fair reported that Pattinson’s representative has not immediately returned a request for comment with the “The Batman” being put on hold. Warner Bros. has pushed its release date to October 1st, 2021. The dark-gritty superhero drama was expected to debut on June 25th next year but with the COVID-19 pandemic, Pattinson’s diagnosis combined with 3 months left of filming, they are working on a tight schedule.

The teaser for the movie that was released last month has intrigued DC fans with the appearance of Batman’s arch-enemies such as The Riddler(Paul Dano), Catwoman(Selina Kyle) and The Penguin(Colin Farrell). It also shows Batman beating up a thug gruesomely before saying “I’m Vengeance”.

“Planet of the Ape”s director, Mark Reeves, has said that his version of “The Dark Knight” is inspired by classic noir films such as “Chinatown” and “Taxi Driver”.
