According to Vanity Fair, the movie was put on a pause just days after the crew resumed work at studios outside of London. The Hollywood Studio behind the filming of the superhero drama, Warner Bros had 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.”

Directed by Matt Reeves, and staring other A-list Hollywood actors such as Paul Dano, Zoe Kravitz and Colin Farrell, The Batman was set to be released on October 21, 2021.
