Due to situations that we have no control over, Cats the movie was introduced to pop culture and there it remains as a mentally scarring experience. But somebody thought it would be a good idea to string it along from the past year, into the present and attach it in particular to The Batman trailer. And now we have a fanmade The Batman trailer with Cats trailer‘s music.

The Batman trailer had myriad fan reactions from gushing over Robert Pattinson as Bruce Waye to Colin Farrell’s unrecognisable Penguin transformation. But Twitter user Elvish Presley had different ideas for getting hyped for the upcoming DCEU film. So here it is, a The Batman trailer with Cats audio, an unexpectedly perfect fit.

DC’s FanDome teaser unleashed The Batman’s first clip upon the internet. It set a noir, almost gothic vibe for the film and Battinson’s emo look just solidified that tone. And we don’t know how but music from Cats surprisingly makes sense with everything that’s going on in the trailer. The trailer has a brooding Bruce Wayne in his formative years of crime-fighting in Gotham City. We get glimpses of the latest additions to DC’s live-action villains including the Zoë Kravitz‘s excellent Catwoman reveal and while we only saw The Riddler’s silhouette (bummer!), his riddle had sent fans on a decoding spree.

Cats‘ trailer had viewers cringing at the cat fur CGI and the movie’s reviews weren’t very different from audiences’ responses in spite of the stacked cast. The Tom Hooper directorial has come up every now and then in a bid to release the accused #buttholecut, memes and fan edits.

The Batman releases on October 1, 2021.
