Tim Burton's Batman Gets a Modern 1989 Classic Trailer Recut

Tim Burton's 1989 Batman movie is a classic in the world of comic book movies. Now DC has shared a modern take on the trailer, reimagining the film as it would be released in 2023.

The new Batman trailer essentially acts like any modern movie trailer, with orchestral music and a few scenes featuring Micheal Keaton's Batman and Bruce Wayne. The new trailer also features more of Jack Nicholson's Joker, as well as some of the film's most action-packed moments.

Check out the modern new Batman trailer from 1989 below:

Released in 1989, Batman was the first installment in the first series of Batman films from Warner Bros. Discovery and was directed by Tim Burton. The film starred Michael Keaton as Batman/Bruce Wayne, Jack Nicholson as The Joker, Kim Basinger as Vicki Vale, Robert Wuhl as Alexander Knox, and Pat Hingl;e as Commissioner Gordon, to name a few- ones.

The film was a huge success for Warner Bros. Discovery, and a trio of movies (Batman Returns, Batman Forever, and Batman & Robin) followed. The success of Batman is also often seen as the catalyst for much of the superhero boom of the 1990s, notably leading to the development of the hugely successful Batman: The Animated Series, which in turn led to the DC animated universe.
