Barry Keoghan was widely believed to be playing GCPD officer Stanley Merkel in The Batman. That wasn’t a wild fan theory either. A roဣund of leaked set photos, as well as , helped perpetuate the idea that Keoghan was one of Gotham’s boys in blue. But it was all a ruse.

"When you're makiꦗng a movie like this, you want it to be different, you want people to feel like they're having a special experience," Reeves explained. "So we started thinking what we could do to throw people off that scent. This idea of making [Keoghan] Stanley Merkel was exactly that,✤ because the police force is actually a big part of the story so it seemed credible that we could be doing that."

If you’ve seen the movie, you’ll know Keoghan isn’t present in any police scenes – though he is in prison. 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Keoghan plays the Joker in a scene involving Paul Dano’s Riddler. Thanks to going above and beyond, it seems Reeves got the last laugh by pulling out all t🥀he s༺tops to protect one of The Batman’s biggest secrets.
