Chinlund took inspiration from David Fincher's films and blended several architectural styles together, such as those of buildings from the 1920s to 1940s. [179] Since the failed economic revivals of Gotham left unfinished architecture, Chinlund "litter[ed] the skyline with these unfinished skyscrapers" to show the "grit up there". [173] Wayne Tower, which serves as Wayne's mausoleum, was inspired by the Hearst Castle; he described it as baroque, Gothic, and ornate. [179] The Iceberg Lounge's aesthetics were inspired by the works of Robert Moses. [173] Fraser said that Gotham City was inspired by the depiction of cities from Chinatown and that of the New York City streets in Klute. While Fraser chose a "broader palette, which skewed towards dour and gloom", Chinlund chose to use a different color palette when designing Selina Kyle's residence in the red-light district. He was inspired by Wong Kar-Wai's films and called it a "romantic palette in some of those movies that we loved, like neon and a lot of colour from the light in the street. Our world is grim in a lot of places, and that was an environment where we could let some colour pop". [176]

[406] HBO still had creative issues with the project, especially with its protagonist being a corrupt cop, [400] and they encouraged Reeves to focus on existing comics characters instead. [407] In March 2022, Reeves said the series was on indefinite hold, though he hoped to revisit the premise in the future. [400] Wright revealed there had been discussions about him appearing in the series but he did not entertain the idea before the film's release. [408] In October, the GCPD series was revealed to still be in development and would be separate from the Arkham series. [401] Other potential projects Reeves released "moody, red-saturated" test footage of Pattinson in his Batman costume on February 13, 2020. The footage included early music written by Giacchino, [281] [282] and generated discussion about the film's approach to Batman. [283] Chris Evangelista of /Film thought Pattinson's Batman looked much different from previous film depictions, [284] while Richard Newby of The Hollywood Reporter identified the costume's various references to past incarnations. Newby also noted that the bat emblem on the costume's chest resembled a pistol, and wondered if it was the pistol used to kill Batman's parents in his origin story. [283] The footage's use of the color red also led to discussions of how The Batman would differ tonally from previous adaptations. [282] [283] On March 4, Reeves released an image of the film's Batmobile. Dino-Ray Ramos of Deadline Hollywood opined that it seemed "sexier and more streamlined than Batmobiles from the past", giving off " James Bond-meets- Fast and Furious energy" that seemed appropriate for Pattinson's version of the character.
