While Matt Reeves’ The Batman cast Robert Pattinson as the Dark Knight, for some fans, he will always be the Edward Cullen to Kristen Stewart’s Bella Swan from Twilight. And even the official Twilight Saga Twitter account thought so when they posted a hilarious mashup of the Robert Pattinson Batman and Kristen Stewart Bella Swan. And the DC Extended Universe movie account even responded, causing fans everywhere to lose it.

The official ‘Twilight Saga’ account posted a hilarious mashup with Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart

Hype for the new Batman movie built for months, as casting choices were announced for the Riddler (Paul Dano), Catwoman (Zoë Kravitz), and the Penguin (Colin Ferrell). On February 22, 2022, the official Twilight Saga Twitter account jumped in on The Batman build-up.

They posted a clip from the first Twilight movie from 2008. Bella and Edward had a confrontation where she revealed knowing he was a vampire.

However, the clip had a hilarious alternate ending.

“I know what you are,” Bella said in the clip. Instead of Stewart’s character saying “vampire,” the clip cut to Pattinson from The Batman, though.

‘The Batman’ Twitter account responded to the Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart ‘Twilight’ mashup

The video maintained the dramatic angles and acting from the fog in the forest in Twilight before jumping to Gotham City in The Batman.

“I am vengeance,” Pattinson shouted in his Bruce Wayne voice. The way the music synced up and a near-perfect cut, the video made fans of both DC Comics and the Stephenie Meyer books break out laughing.

While the reference video would have been a funny throwback from The Twilight Saga Twitter, it became even better when The Batman Twitter account responded. And fans loved seeing Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart together again somehow.

“The truth is finally revealed…” the account tweeted with a bat emoji.

Fans lost their minds over the Edward and Bella actors video

Fans took the Twitter comments with reactions. One DC Comics fan even pointed out that the Katherine Kane Batwoman even had a werewolf partner (Kyle Abbot) when the first Twilight movie released.

Others rejoiced at seeing Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart together again.

Pattinson has voiced his distaste before about how he never seems to shake his fame from the Twilight series. However, he has changed his tune in more recent years. After seeing Twilight: New Moon on TV, the future Batman actor admitted that the “incredibly good soundtrack” brought back good memories.

“It’s lovely now that the mania is not so intense,” Pattinson told USA Today in 2019. “People come up (to me) and just have very fond memories of it. It’s a really sweet thing. I think the only scary part was right in the thick of it all when it was very, very intense. Now the intensity has died down, and it’s just very warm memories.”

Whether you grew up with Pattinson as Edward Cullen or grow up with him as the Dark Knight, The Batman and Twilight mashup with Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart marks just how far the actors have come over the years.
