Mason had taken care of the negotiations regarding the international distributional deal with Cube Pictures who offered one which prioritized the movie Green Book first. And then, when Mason had explained about the next movie of Renner Studio, they agreed and made deals with Renner Studio for the overseas rights of Batman Begins. 

Nevertheless, the release of the trailer, which already crossed two million views, was from all the DC fans in the world. The popularity for the characters, comics, and the reputation Ian had in the eyes of the fans increased by a huge mile after they enjoyed the trailer so much— and people commented they could not wait till the movie was released.

A man wearing a long sleeve shirt over a t-shirt came running behind the chairs that were placed in front of the long white table which had several microphones on it. The cameras were all focused on the person who had just come running in. 

There were people—hundreds of them, in front of the stage–standing and shouting wanting to meet the special guests for the day. In the big picture, behind the chairs–on the wall, it was the screen which had the main camera connected to it; so that the people who stood from afar could watch their favorite actors, actresses, or whoever was about to come… talk. 

“Oh my God! Ah!” The man pant loudly and looked here and there. “I was just about to finish doing my drugs—I mean, practice my speech but meh, this started too early than I thought. Anyways, everyone knows how it goes. Welcome to the Comic-con, 2019! I’m your today’s event host, Jonas Nicolas– for those of you who don’t know me, even after all the years I have been on the screens. Let’s get right into it now! So, let’s give it a hand— Please WELCOME the award-winning, youngest recipient of the year 2018-2019, Ian Renner everybody!” 

The people clapped, welcoming Ian Renner to the panel of Comic-con 2019. 

“The person who was revealed after the trailer that was released yesterday—To be the one to act as Batman in Batman Begins—Please welcome, Christian Bale everybody!”

Christian came with a smile, waving yet jogging onto the stage, and took his seat beside Ian, who was still smiling for the cameras. 

“Next we have Scarlett Johnson—who stars Rachel in the movie, please welcome with a round of applause everybody!” 

Scarlett walked in with a huge grin and waved enthusiastically at them, earning a very noisy round of applause from the crowd. 

“And then we have—”

The host introduced ten people to the panel which included actors who acted, Bruce Wayne, Rachel Dawes, Ra’s-al Ghul, Alfred Pennyworth, Scarecrow, Henri Ducard, Carmine Falcone, Thomas Wayne, and last but not least, the movie’s director and producer; Ian Renner and Martin Ward. 

“How are you guys?!” Jonas asked loudly, making the entire panel laugh. 

“We are fine, how are you?” Bale replied with a chuckle. 

“So, it is so good to see you altogether because, I mean—something huge is on its way, and we are seeing the faces of the next biggest Superhero franchise without a doubt. Are you guys happy to be here together?” Jonas questioned.

“Of course, I mean—yeah,” Scarlett replied with a shrug. All the celebrities on the panel shrugged looking at each other. 

“Is there anyone who wants to say otherwise?” 

“Err–No. How are you?” Harnes Wood questioned back. Harnes was the person who acted as Thomas Wayne; Bruce Wayne’s father in the movie. 

“I’m *so* fine now—Now that Bale is here of course, so, I’m getting out of track seeing you smile, Bale,” Jonas replied cheekily, making everyone laugh. “Ian, what made you focus your movies on Superheroes? That too—Batman?” Jonas questioned while all the eyes, ears, and cameras turned to Ian. 

“First of all, hello.” Some chuckled hearing Ian’s hello. “And second, thank you so much for having us here today. And yes, the trailer took a drastic turn which made all the fans–DC or not, just anticipate a good movie in the near future, so I’m glad for that. And, yes. I wanted to try something different and you know, the side of superheroes is not that vast in the industry, so thought of doing a difference,” Ian said, earning a round of applause from everyone. 

“That is great, and that is something Hollywood kept the lovers away from— So, Scarlett, how was it working with the crew? We found some of the pictures during the filming and you were not looking that great?” Jonas asked, making everyone laugh. 

“Oh you sure must have seen how hard it was for me—” People started laughing yet Jonas and Scarlett kept a straight face which made it even funnier. “No actually, they are all lovely. And very supportive, to be honest, no spoilers but— if you watch the movie, you’ll see how dangerous some of the action scenes are, and trust me when I say this, they were so much fun,” Scarlett said with a mesmerizing smile. 

Although she was not an established actress, she got so much spotlight after the movie trailer release.

“This can be named as your first movie in which your fan base went from 27k to 150k in a single night, I mean—I mean, what more to explain?” Jonas questioned making everyone laugh. 

“That, yeah. Thank you, everyone,” Scarlett said as everyone clapped loudly making the entire hall break its silence—which never existed. 

“Yes, Martin Ward, sir, you have sacrificed more than half of your life during your career to protect the lives of the characters in comics, why?” Jonas asked, making the hall go silent for a few seconds. 

“These comic book characters— are indeed special. One way or another, there are thousands of people who love the heroes and get inspiration from them to live their own life in their own way. For me, it’s all about how I live my life. Ever since I was small I enjoyed knowing about people who save the day, so, in a way, the characters are closer to me. Ian practically made a dream of mine come true, but giving birth to one of my favorite characters—That too, flawlessly. Thank you,” Martin said with tears pooling in his eyes, while Ian patted his shoulder. 

“That sounds close to home, which makes me come to my other question, how many of you have read or at least tried to read the comic books?” Jonas questioned. 

“I did my homework,” James Linstone who acted as Scarecrow said with a meaningful smile. He raised his hand and everyone clapped, including the host. “I actually enjoy reading comics every now and then, I even watched the Batman cartoon which was brought up by Panther studios, and I enjoyed them, so, yeah,” People went on clapping again for what he said. 

“That sounds good, so well— I wanna take questions from everybody here, if you wanna start with, that one, red t-shirt please,” Jonas said while all the eyes focused to a girl who ought to be in her twenties, wearing a squared shaped glasses and was dressed in a frock. She looked extremely happy and enthusiastic, and she grabbed the microphone and brought it closer to her mouth as quickly as possible. 

The microphone was stood in the front line of the crowd so that anyone could grab and ask a question. But for the start, Jonas took the lead and pointed someone out. 

“Hi!” She said as soon as she got the chance.  

“Hello,” Bale replied. 

“I’m Leslie,”

“Hello Leslie, how are you?”

“I’m doing fine, my question is for Bale,”

“Great,” Bale said, earning chuckles from two-three people in the crowd. The other actors and actresses kept looking left and right to the crowd because people looked overly happy—and that was something rare for actors and actresses to meet with in real life, considering they get to get closer to people not very often. 

“What kind of challenges did you face while shooting any scene from the movie? We don’t need spoilers, so avoid them if possible. But, seeing how you were the lead—it would be interesting to know anything related to the movie and the challenges you face,” Surprisingly, the girl spoke quickly within a matter of seconds. 

“Yes, thank you for the question, Leslie. If I’m about to avoid spoilers, I can say that some locations of the movie made me think that why could we not use the highly developed technology but keep acting in a place where I can barely feel myself—is that a spoiler?” Bale asked, earning a low chuckle from Ian. 

“It’s not, you’re good, keep going,” Ian said, encouraging him to complete the answer—but it came out as sarcasm. 

“Yeah, well, let’s just say being a superhero is not easy at all. From the trailer itself, I know almost every one of you might have seen things I did or had to do to give proper fair treatment to the character I played. And Ian Renner over here is too talented to be young, and too young to be this talented. I respect him considering how many sacrifices he, himself made for the movie—I kind of went out of the question. All in all, every scene was a challenge to me, to perform and give out my best,” Bale replied, earning another round of applause from the crowd. 

“Thanks, Bale,” Leslie said and walked away from the microphone. 

“Hello, Emma here, my question is for Ian. Ian, do you think the rumors of ‘Ian’s movie era’ are not true?” 

And so on, the interview went on for an hour while the people who came to the hall premises asked questions, shared their ideas, and spent a wonderful time meeting the next big actors in the next hit franchise—Batman Trilogy. Nevertheless, the hype for the new movie just increased more after the entire interview got live telecasted on different media channels.
