Robert Pattinson has reportedly tested positive for Covid-19, halting filming of the film The Batman, days after it resumed following lockdown.
Warner Bros confirmed a member of the production team was self-isolating but did not say who. A spokeswoman for the studios said: “A member of The Batman production has tested positive for Covid-19, and is isolating in accordance with established protocols. “Filming is temporarily paused.” US outlets Variety and Vanity Fair quoted unnamed sources close to the production which said the person in question was Pattinson.
The superhero film, which features the British actor as the caped superhero, only recently returned to filming near London following a six-month hiatus due to the pandemic.
