Pattinson's Edward and Batman share some traits.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Robert Pattinson's portrayal of Bruce Wayne in DC's The Batman shares certain qualities with his role as Edward Cullen in the Twilight saga, yet he was criticized for his acting in the vampire romance movies but praised for the comic book film.
Robert Pattinson has been building a successful acting career with roles such as Ephraim Winslow a.k.a. Thomas Howard in Robert Eggers' The Lighthouse, Neil in Tenet, Preston Teagardin in The Devil All The Time, and Bruce Wayne in DC's Elseworlds movie, The Batman — all of which have helped the actor leave behind his controversial time as Edward Cullen, the vampire protagonist of the Twilight franchise.
Pattinson's Batman Owes A Lot To Edward Cullen Although reactions to Robert Pattinson's casting as Batman weren't unanimously positive at first, his performance has been widely regarded as a positive aspect of the movie. Robert Pattinson's Bruce Wayne starts out as a shut-in misanthrope with a quiet, brooding attitude. His stoic demeanor leads to awkward social interactions, though he doesn't seem to mind them due to his obsession with one single goal.
Likewise, Robert Pattinson's Edward Cullen is reserved, serious, and intimidating due to his odd behavior around people, even after opening up to Bella Swan. Edward's self-loathing slowly unravels as he grows obsessed with Bella, though he isolates himself even more as the story progresses.
Most importantly, the Twilight franchise was filled with problematic implications, including Edward and Bella's toxic relationship, as well as Edward's disturbing behavior, which included stalking Bella and watching her while she slept. The somber performance required from Robert Pattinson limited his portrayal and made his already questionable actions seem more perverted. Robert Pattinson simply had no material to play with.
