Robert Pattinson has been spotted filming for The Batman in Liverpool's city centre.
Production on the latest Caped Crusader flick resumed over the weekend after a hiatus in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic, with star Robert Pattinson reportedly testing positive for the virus last month.
The production company had already started setting up for filming around St. George's Hall, including the passageway which leads from William Brown Street down into the cells underneath the hall.
The film, titled The Batman, stars Pattinson as the legendary DC Comics hero and is due to be released in June 2021 by Warner Bros.
