Along with special guest ReevzFX, we're joined by "The Ballet Bat" Carl Newman to talk about his experience filming the 1989 Batman movie as a body and movement double for Michael Keaton, chosen to add grace and athleticism to the Batman, working with Tim Burton, Jack Nicholson, et al. You'll be shocked to find out how many of the iconic shots and scenes from the film are not actually Michael Keaton, but Carl himself under the cowl.
