Bonus Features: Dive into Matt Reeves’ Batcave with ‘The Batman’ on 4K

Just under three months ago, director Matt Reeves delivered the defining on-screen iteration of one of the world’s most iconic characters. “The Batman” brought to life a fully-realized, comic book-accurate representation of the Caped Crusader in the midst of a thrilling murder mystery that transcended the superhero genre.

Now, Reeves is pulling back the curtain and inviting fans to join him in the Batcave as “The Batman” releases on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, DVD and Digital, bringing with it a host of detailed bonus features.

Anyone who witnessed “The Batman” in theaters was treated to the best version of the film – big screen, big sound and big fun – but the home release still manages to do Reeves’ masterpiece justice. Greg Fraiser’s stunning cinematography translates brilliantly on the 4K Ultra HD disc, as the rich darkness of Gotham City shines with detail and depth. Every single detail is evident, from the stitching of Batman’s cowl to the stubble on Robert Pattinson’s jaw beneath it. Michael Giacchino’s instantly-iconic score and the epic sound effects are equally impressive on the Dolby Atmos audio mix, creating a truly immersive viewing experience.

Those who have already seen the film are also well aware of the immense detail and craft that went into creating “The Batman.” For viewers familiar with Reeves’ filmography, that commitment should come as no surprise. Amongst the many smaller featurettes and extras included in the home release lies an in-depth, full-length “Making of” documentary that maps out the entire filmmaking process.

Let’s take a look at everything it has to offer.
