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.

5 years ago, after his fiancé Andrea Beaumont fled, Bruce Wayne donned the cowl and became the Batman. 20 years later, Andrea returns to Gotham after the disappearance of Andrea’s father, Carl Beaumont. In Gotham, a hooded figure has been seen killing Gotham crime bosses who are tied to Carl and the hitman who shot him, who would eventually become the infamous criminal known as "the Joker." With this hooded figure (or "Phantasm") having a similar resemblance to the Batman, the caped crusader is now on the run. When Bruce rekindles his romance with Andrea, reconnects with Selina Kyle, and takes in a recently orphaned boy, Dick Grayson, with parallels to his own past, and with Commisioner Gordon's Step Daughter, Barbara taking inspiration from him, can the Batman choose his own destiny, And answer the question, Who is the "Phantasm," and how far will they shake up the future of Gotham and of the Batman?
