Matthew George "Matt" Reeves (born April 27, 1966 in Rockville Center, New York, USA) is an American screenwriter, director, and producer. He began making movies at age eight, directing friends and using a wind-up camera. Reeves befriended filmmaker J.J. Abrams when both were 13 years old and they were making short films together. When Reeves and Abrams were 15 or 16 years old, Steven Spielberg hired them to transfer some of his own Super 8 films to videotape. Reeves began his career as a screenwriter for the films Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995) and The Pallbearer (1996), the latter of which marked his feature-length directorial debut. He then transitioned into television as a director and co-creator of the drama series Felicity (1998–2002) alongside J.J. Abrams. Reeves has since directed the horror film Cloverfield (2008), the romantic horror film Let Me In (2010), and the science fiction sequels Dawn of the Planet of the Apes (2014) and War for the Planet of the Apes (2017). In February 2017, Warner Bros. announced that Reeves would direct The Batman (2022) by DC, starring Robert Pattinson.
Batman, adjusting to his new job protecting the innocent, injured and traumatized citizens of Gotham City from the floods created through The Riddler's malice, soon ends up involved in a new case that will test both him, and his alter ego Bruce Wayne. An act of chemical-based genocide begins to rock the foundations of Goth Corp., a company founded by Thomas Wayne, where bodies are found decayed and frost-bitten by blasts of cold that seem to be generating deep within the bowels of Wayne Labs. Teamed with Commissioner Gordon, and a new partner, his father's close friend and Wayne Labs head tech designer Lucius Fox, Batman must find a way to balance his two identities in this case. The villain, a heart-broken and suffering scientist named Victor Fries, has teamed up with Gotham's new kingpin, The Penguin, in an attempt to assassinate Goth Corp's corrupt CEO, Ferris Boyle, who seems to be involved in Victor's miserable descent into villainy. What has Boyle done, and can Batman save him from Victor's blood-fueled revenge?
