\n\tRobert Pattinson<\/a> is sounding off about Steven Soderbergh<\/a> stepping up to <\/a>help finish filming The Batman Part II. <\/p>\n

\n\tEarlier this month, Soderbergh agreed to take the on-set directing reins for the DC Studios production in London after Matt Reeves<\/a> had to step aside due to a personal family matter back in Los Angeles. Reeves remains involved in the production. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI am so happy he\u2019s come on to help Matt,\u201d Pattinson told Games Radar<\/a> during a recent interview while promoting the actor\u2019s film Primetime. \u201cIt\u2019s incredibly generous of him \u2013 and he\u2019s doing it in the loveliest way. It\u2019s completely selfless.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tContinued Pattinson: \u201cI think Matt had put so much work into the script, and we\u2019re almost done. So for someone to come in and say, \u2018I just want to help Matt do it; I want to do it in conjunction with him and just get it to the edit.\u2019 And to have someone who\u2019s as talented as Steven doing it is great.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tPattinson added the film is now back in production. <\/p>\n

\n\tAs previously reported, the plan is for Soderbergh to work in London, while Reeves operates out of Los Angeles. Reeves will also be hands-on during the movie\u2019s post-production in L.A. The film is said to be about two-thirds done.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI thought Matt Reeves\u2019 work on The Batman was stunning; it was intentional, specific, and rigorously coherent,\u201d Soderbergh said in a statement. \u201cThe goal here is to work with Matt and his team to generate footage that will integrate seamlessly with what\u2019s already been shot so Matt can properly finish his film.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAdded Reeves on social media: \u201cJust to be clear, I am not leaving The Batman Part II. I am profoundly grateful to Steven for coming to my aid during this challenging time to help me finish principal photography. Thank you to all for your concern and well wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPattinson is having a rather incredible year, having appeared in three successful films \u2014 The Drama, The Odyssey and Primetime, with Dune: Part Three still to come in December. <\/p>\n

\n\tPattinson stars in The Batman Part II as Bruce Wayne\/Batman, with new additions to the franchise including Scarlett Johansson and Sebastian Stan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Robert Pattinson is sounding off about Steven Soderbergh stepping up to help finish filming The Batman Part II.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":657894,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[146,85,46,16296,397,13305,6588,17444],"class_list":["post-657893","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-matt-reeves","tag-movies","tag-robert-pattinson","tag-steven-soderbergh","tag-the-batman-part-ii"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657893","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=657893"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/657893\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/657894"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=657893"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=657893"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=657893"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
