The broadcast schedule for The Batman on the HBO Max streaming service was reportedly accidentally leaked to the public. The film, starring Robert Pattinson, is said to be streaming on April 19 on HBO Max and April 23 on HBO.

Deadline reported on Wednesday (16/3) US time, the leaked date came after the HBO website experienced a technical error that led to the announcement.

Killar has stated several times that during 2022, WarnerBros films will hit HBO Max 45 days after their debut in theaters, or until further announcements are made.

Meanwhile, in the context of The Batman, the date that was leaked to the public is 46 days after its premiere in North American theaters on March 4.

The Batman is a 2022 American superhero film based on the DC Comics character Batman. Produced by DC Films, 6th & Idaho, and Dylan Clark Productions, and distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, it is a reboot of the Batman film franchise. The film was directed by Matt Reeves, who wrote the screenplay with Peter Craig. It stars Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne / Batman alongside Zoë Kravitz, Paul Dano, Jeffrey Wright, John Turturro, Peter Sarsgaard, Andy Serkis, and Colin Farrell. The film sees Batman, who has been fighting crime in Gotham City for two years, uncover corruption while pursuing the Riddler (Dano), a serial killer who targets Gotham's elite.

Development began after Ben Affleck was cast as Batman in the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) in 2013. Affleck signed on to direct, produce, co-write, and star in The Batman, but had reservations about the project and dropped out. Reeves took over and reworked the story, removing the DCEU connections. He sought to explore Batman's detective side more than previous films, drawing inspiration from the films of Alfred Hitchcock and the New Hollywood era, and comics such as "Year One" (1987), The Long Halloween (1996–97), and Ego (2000). Pattinson was cast in May 2019, with further casting in late 2019. Principal photography took place in the UK and Chicago between January 2020 and March 2021.

The Batman premiered at Lincoln Center in New York on March 1, 2022, and was theatrically released worldwide on March 4. It was delayed twice from an initial June 2021 release date due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The film has grossed over $510 million against a $185–200 million budget, making it the second-highest-grossing film of 2022, and received praise for the performances, cinematography, Reeves' direction, music, action sequences, and story, though some criticized its runtime. It is intended to launch a Batman shared universe, with two sequels planned and two spin-off television series in development for HBO Max.

This policy has been implemented by Warner Bros. since last year to attract more customers while preventing film piracy during the pandemic.

Meanwhile, The Batman itself managed to reap fantastic revenues after two weeks of showing in theaters.

Robert Pattinson's debut film as Bruce Wayne managed to collect US $ 463.2 million or more than Rp. 6.6 trillion (US $ 1 = Rp. 14,326) from the global box office for two weeks of screening.

That number skyrocketed four times after the premiere. At that time, The Batman won US $ 120 million from 74 countries, or equivalent to Rp. 1.7 trillion.

This success has the potential to expand the Batman universe with a number of film or series projects that will be worked on in the future.

One of those projects has received the green light, namely a spinoff series for the character The Penguin, starring Colin Farrell.

This assurance was obtained after HBO Max as the platform that will broadcast the series The Penguin announced that the project was officially in the works.

Colin Farrell is also confirmed to reprise his role as Oswald 'Oz' Cobblepot after the actor signed a contract for the project to release The Batman character. But until now,
