Yes, they might be a bit grainy but these are the latest images of the new Batmobile. If you’re anything like me, your inner eight-year-old boy is jumping for joy right now.

A few weeks ago, two initial images of the new Batmobile hit the web. While those images showed us just a small portion of the car, these two new pictures show us a bit more.

What we can see is impressive indeed.

Ignoring the body that looks a bit too much like Darth Vader’s Executor Star Destroyer for my taste, we see a suspension system with more travel than a Baja 1000 desert racing pickup truck. Although the swing arms looks a bit out of place on the flat-bodied villain squasher, they make sense; the Batmobile has to withstand some serious mistreatment (and sweet jumps). Ultimately, though, Ben Affleck’s Batmobile looks like a combination of George Clooney’s and Christian Bale’s ‘Mobiles.

What kind of propulsion system the Batmobile employs is not yet known. I wonder if Batman will go eco-friendly and utilize a hybrid-drive system. If he does, I hope it’s on par with the likes of the McLaren P1.

We’re quite excited to see more of the caped crusader’s newest whip. We’ll be updating often, as soon as we learn more. So be sure to check back often.

The Batman’s new poster promises to ‘unmask the truth’
The cast of The Batman.

In just over a month, a new era in Gotham City will begin in The Batman. Director Matt Reeves' film will take a new look at Bruce Wayne's early years as the Dark Knight by forcing him to live up to his reputation as "the World's Greatest Detective." However, Bruce may not be the only one looking for answers in Gotham.

Warner Bros. Pictures has released a new poster for The Batman that features Bruce Wayne (Robert Pattinson) and his alter ego surrounded by the film's three antagonists: Paul Dano as Edward Nashton/The Riddler, Colin Farrell as Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin, and Zoë Kravitz as Selina Kyle/Catwoman. It also strongly hints at a trail of destruction left in Bruce's wake.

The Batman’s Colin Farrell to star in HBO Max’s new Penguin series

The Batman will hit theaters in just a few months, but HBO Max already has plans to expand this new vision of Gotham City. Variety is reporting that Colin Farrell has signed on to reprise his role as Oswald Cobblepot in HBO Max's Penguin spinoff series. Reports about The Batman's latest spinoff first emerged in September, but Farrell wasn't attached to the project at that time.

Writer Bill Finger and artist Bob Kane created Penguin in 1941, and he has become one of Batman's most enduring adversaries. Despite his grotesque appearance, Penguin tends to spend time among Gotham City's high-society members, while also using his assortment of trick umbrellas to commit crimes. In the first Batman live-action TV series from 1966-68, Penguin was played by Burgess Meredith, while Danny DeVito took over the role in 1992's Batman Returns. Robin Lord Taylor portrayed a younger Oswald Cobblepot in Fox's 2014 Gotham series.
