Jaden Smith Is Losing His 'F—- S—' Over Robert Pattinson's Batman: 'He Will Be the Best'

Jaden Smith is very excited for Robert Pattinson‘s Batman.

If you don’t believe it, read his response when Rolling Stone asked Smith, a known Batman super-fan who even named one of his songs after the caped crusader, how he felt about the former Twilight actor, 33, taking over the role from Ben Affleck.

“Oh my gosh, I don’t even know what to say,” Smith, 21, said. “Amazing things are happening every day that you don’t even know. I don’t even know. I’m at a loss for words with how excited I am for him. It has to happen. It has to f—– happen. He will be the best Batman. I’m losing my f—– s—.”

After reports swirled that Pattinson, 33, and Nicholas Hoult were in contention to play Batman in the upcoming new film by Warner Bros., Variety confirmed that Pattinson nabbed the role. The Batman is tentatively set to hit theaters June 25, 2021.
