The new “Batman” becomes the longest-running “Batman” movie… an advantage or a hindrance at the box office when it is released?

The new movie “The Batman”, which is expected to be released next March, will be the longest-running movie about “Batman”.
The American film production company, “Warner Brothers”, confirmed that “The Batman” has a running time of two hours and 55 minutes, which also makes it one of the longest superhero films ever, according to the American website Deadline.
The movie “Avengers: End Game”, produced in 2019, was slightly longer than “The Batman” by three hours and a minute.

Avengers Endgame without credits was 2 hours and 49 minutes.
The Batman without credits is 2 hours and 47 minutes.

This means that in actuality, #TheBatman is only 2 minutes under #AvengersEndgame, making it the second longest theatrical superhero movie. pic.twitter.com/pZDCSJivHl

Warner Bros. is betting strongly on the success of its “The Batman” movie, which is the only movie to open globally on March 4, and will dedicate the following weekend to raking in box office revenues alone without competing films.
Commenting on this, Paul Dargarabedian, senior media analyst at ComScore, said that with no competition, The Batman has a “wide open playing field, during its opening weekend and beyond.”
He also confirms that Dargarabedian confirms that series films, especially those related to superheroes, have long dominated the box office in America even during the emerging epidemic of the “Corona” virus, and history has shown that the long period of time does not necessarily hinder them significantly.

And the movie “The Batman” directed by Matt Reeves, and it stars Robert Pattinson as “Batman”, along with other actors who embody the roles of his enemies from the comics, most notably the Irish, Colin Farrell, as “Penguin”.
