Filming of The Batman has resumed in the UK after it was paused as a precaution against coronavirus.

Robert Pattinson tested positive for the virus, causing filming to be halted earlier this month, US outlets Variety and Vanity Fair previously reported.

A Warner Bros spokeswoman confirmed production had restarted “following a hiatus for Covid-19 quarantine precautions”.
