Alfred

While Alfred Pennyworth obviously isn’t the man himself, he’s an absolutely integral part of the person Bruce Wayne has become – and Jeremy Irons appears to have nailed that snarky persona that every Batman fan loves him to have.

Alfred is essentially Bruce’s surrogate father and he’s one of the only things that keeps his feet on the ground – and one of the only people who dares to talk down to him. Irons has that down to a fine art, going by what we’ve seen so far.

Irons could be the best Alfred yet – and, given that both Michael Gough and Michael Caine were fantastic in the role previously, that would be no mean feat. Plus, HE’S REMOTE FLYING THE DAMN BATPLANE!
