The Batman has triumphed in its premiere this weekend. In just three days, Matt Reeves’ Dark Knight has grossed $128.5 million in the United States, making it Warner Bros’ biggest opening since the pandemic began. However, part of this success is due to the fact that the film has not been released on HBO Max at the moment, which has forced viewers to have to go to the cinema yes or yes. So… What do we know about the future of this movie? Is it coming soon to HBO Max or do we have to wait? Don’t worry, we’re going to solve that question for you in a few moments.
Do not miss the opportunity to see it in the cinema
If you have not already gone to the cinema to see The Batman, we must tell you that you are taking a long time. All the “hate” that has fallen on poor Robert Pattinson, during all these months, has been useless. Believe it or not, the actor has ended up doing very well as a young Batman in a very well spun detective film, with a spectacular cast and some streets of Gotham that are really scary. In this aspect, you can be sure that the film will not disappoint you at any time.
On the other hand, if you have gone to the cinema this weekend to see it, it is most likely that you want to see it again to review some details or review the dialogues. However, the movie is so long that you most likely won’t want to see it in the theater again. It would be much better at home, with the remote control in hand and controlling the rhythm of the three hours that the film has.
When does The Batman premiere on HBO Max?
Yes, but not as we have seen in 2021. We have already talked on numerous occasions about the problems that Warner Bros has had with its controversial release system on HBO Max. Cases like Matrix Resurrections , for example, which have ended up in court when some producers consider that Warner has used its own streaming platform to sink the premiere at the box office and thus take most of the profits through HBO Max.
The Batman was originally going to be released in 2021, but was delayed. For this reason, the film was no longer able to enter Project Popcorn, which was a program of simultaneous theatrical releases and streaming that was active during the past year on HBO Max due to the pandemic.
With that show over, The Batman will have to wait 45 days from its theatrical release to hit HBO Max . Therefore, you will have to wait until April 19 if you want to see The Batman on your sofa with your remote, your chance to stop the movie to go to the bathroom (very important) and without being aware of the mask. Even so, as we told you at the beginning, it is worth seeing the movie in style the first time.
