PHOTOS Russell Brand as Batman, Luis Guzman as Robin from ‘Arthur’

Russell Brand as Batman

Russell Brand was spotted in lower Manhattan Saturday wearing an anatomically amplifying Batman costume while filming a scene for the movie Arthur. In addition to chiseled, six-pack abs the suit revealed Bruce Wayne’s super-hero alter ego to be a bit “cheeky” when viewed from behind!

If you look closely, you’ll notice that his “tool belt” has tiny bottles of liquor, a flask, a shot glass, some exploding confetti as well as other unidentified items that I assume are party favors as well:

Perhaps even funnier than Brand is Luis Guzman dressed as his sidekick, Robin. Whoever designed his costume was pure genius for making it lace up in the front! Eventually Guzman’s super-gut is too much and the laces have to surrender.

Ever wonder why there aren’t any heavy-set dudes with mustaches portraying super-heros? Now you know! (You can check out an even better photo of Robin and his “Holy bat overlap, Batman!” at latinoreview.com.

The only thing disappointing about these hilarious photos is the absence of future Mrs. Russell Brand, Katy Perry as Katwoman in a sexy form-fitting leather catsuit! (My heart is racing – gotta calm down. I’ll just stare at el Robin for a minute… Ahhhhh, that did it.)
