I can't be the only one seeing Hush here? A lot of tape and taped faces?

Colin Farrell really is unrecognisable
That's mental. Fair enough you see him for two seconds in a trailer and can't place him but I'm looking at that still picture and would never know if you hadn't told me.

Production shut down due to Robert Pattinson testing positive for Covid-19
It is believed that Robert Pattinson tested positive for COVID-19. As a result filming the Batman movie has been halted. The movie suffering many delays as filming was paused at the start of the pandemic and things got delayed for months. The film had just recently returned to production in London. The production had been paused again with reports simply saying that a member of the production team had contracted the virus. But it is Pattinson who is sick was reported by Vanity Fair recently. Warner Bros. is yet responded to the reports.

Typically the quarantine time with a positive test is two weeks, So a two week delay will be minimum as it wouldn't possible to shoot without your lead actor.

I'm looking at this wondering what the point is.

I assume it's not meant to be, but it just looks like a sequel to Nolan's trilogy.

It will take a lot to replace Bale's trilogy for me but this is just a different take, one that looks promising to me based on this trailer.
