Matt Reeves<\/strong> really said “come as you are” to Robert Pattinson<\/strong> for his new Batman movie — and he meant it in every sense of the word … because Kurt Cobain<\/strong> is on his brain.<\/p>\n The ‘Batman’ director spilled the beans this week in a new Empire<\/strong> interview about the inspiration behind his version of Bruce Wayne — with Pattinson playing the billionaire playboy by day, and the Caped Crusader by night.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Lo and behold … it was the late Nirvana<\/strong> singer that actually inspired RP’s look — which makes a ton of sense. The guy looks pretty grungy, and now we know why.<\/p>\n Reeves says of the process behind figuring out a new take … “When I write, I listen to music, and as I was writing the first act, I put on Nirvana’s ‘Something In The Way.'”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n He adds, “That’s when it came to me that, rather than make Bruce Wayne the playboy version we’ve seen before, there’s another version who had gone through a great tragedy and become a recluse. So, I started making this connection to Gus Van Sant’s Last Days, and the idea of this fictionalized version of Kurt Cobain being in this kind of decaying manor.”<\/p>\n That’s a pretty sweet tribute to Kurt, no doubt. But, fans are pointing out Pattinson’s Wayne appearance is perhaps less punk rock … and more emo. Or at least it was before this new shot of Bob surfaced, where his hair is a little more messy — and he gives off Cobain vibes.<\/p>\n Anyway, Reeves apparently thought Pattinson was the whole package after watching 2017’s “Good Time,” from which he discerned this … “In that movie you could really feel his vulnerability and desperation, but you could also feel his power … He’s also got that Kurt Cobain thing, where he looks like a rock star, but you also feel like he could be a recluse.”<\/p>\n
