Robert Pattinson has tested positive for Covid-19, say reports. Filming for his new role on The Batman, in which he plays the titular superhero, has had to be halted only days after it resumed.

Filming had been put on hold amid coronavirus, but recently resumed just outside of London. Now, the lead star has caught the bug, bringing production to a grinding halt again, Vanity Fair reports.

While Warner Bros would not comment on any individual's health when approached by the publication, the company shared a statement which read: "A member of production has tested positive for Covid-19, and is isolating in accordance with established protocols. "Filming is temporarily paused." Mirror Online has reached out to Robert's rep for comment.
