The Batman (2022)
Warner Bros.
Director Matt Reeves' take on Batman, http://zagonka-z.site with Robert Pattinson under the mask, hits theaters on Friday. The Batman has been showered with (mostly) positive reviews, with box office projections targeting a huge $100 million-plus opening weekend.
How can we see it? Given that The Batman is being distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it makes sense to expect it to swiftly hit HBO Max, thanks to the much-discussed (and derided by filmmakers) day-and-date release model. However, the situation has changed in 2022. Plus, theater ticket prices at a certain cinema chain have also been tweaked.
Scroll down for everything you need to know on how to watch The Batman.
When does The Batman come out?
The Batman exclusively hits theaters in the US and the UK on March 4, and in Australia on March 3. Thought the movie would come out earlier? It was originally scheduled to hit theaters last June.
Note that tickets for The Batman at AMC theaters will cost slightly more than usual as the chain experiments with variable pricing.
Will The Batman hit HBO Max?
Yes -- with a but. The Batman will be available for streaming on HBO Max, but not until 45 days after its theatrical release date.
Let's discuss Warner Bros.' controversial "day-and-date" release plan. Last year, theater companies struck a deal with Warner Bros. to show the studio's 2022 slate on the big screen during a 45-day window. If The Batman had kept its original 2021 release date, it might have gone straight to HBO Max. But that's not the case.

What's The Batman about?
