Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, and Michael Keaton might have stolen the show at Sunday night's Oscars after reliving their Batman days.
While his year's Oscars went by without anyone getting slapped or the wrong winner being read out for Best Picture, that doesn't mean it was without any fun.
Schwarzenegger and DeVito, famous for their lead roles in the 1988 comedy Twins, reunited on stage to present the awards for Best Visual Effects and Best Film Editing.
Godzilla Minus One won the former, with Oppenheimer picking up the latter.
Check out the moment below:
"Arnold and I are presenting tonight together for a very obvious reason," DeVito remarked.
The audience assumed they would refer to their 1988 movie, but instead, Schwarzenegger said: "We've both tried to kill Batman!"
DeVito famously portrayed the Penguin in Tim Burton’s Batman Returns, where he clashed with Michael Keaton's Batman and Michelle Pfeiffer’s Catwoman.
On the other hand, Schwarzenegger faced off against George Clooney’s Batman as the villainous Mr. Freeze in the notorious flop Batman and Robin.
Schwarzenegger said that his villain was defeated after Batman “used my one weakness against me,” which was his character's love of his wife.
"Oh. He threw me out a window!" DeVito said about his Penguin's death. "There he is. He’s right here. He’s right there. Look!"
The camera then panned to Keaton in the audience, who had earlier taken to the stage as a presenter alongside his Beetlejuice co-star Catherine O’Hara.
"You have a lot of nerve to show your face around here," Schwarzenegger joked to Keaton, and DeVito chimed in: "We'll see you after the Governor's Ball, pal!"
Fans loved the banter between the trio, with one person taking to X to say: "Something about this bit between Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, & Michael Keaton made my nostalgic filled heart burst with laughter. They all still got it. Legends."
A second person said: "So screen legends Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny Devito gave Godzilla an Oscar, while Oppenheimer swept the rest? Yeah, best Oscars ever."
A third added: "The fact that Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito just bonded on stage about BEING BATMAN VILLAINS and it cutting to Michael Keaton basically saying, 'Bring it' has officially become my favorite moment of the night!"
Others praised Keaton's low-key performance in the crowd, with many viewers impressed by how he oozed Bruce Wayne's charisma.
While it's been years since Schwarzenegger and DeVito portrayed their comic book villains, Keaton recently reprised his role as Batman in a surprise appearance in Warner Bros. The Flash.
Director Andy Muschietti shared an amusing anecdote to IGN about Keaton's return, revealing: "When [Keaton] arrived on set, the Batcave was already finished and lit up. He stayed like this [eyes wide] for a while. I didn’t want to interrupt him. I just wanted for him to take it in. Who knows what was going on there? But something was going on there."
Muschietti continued: "It was funny because at one point during the scene where we shot him in the full suit, he was like, 'Can you take a picture? It’s for my grandson.' It was one of those moments where he really showed something was inside that was very emotional."
Let's be honest, the world needs a movie with all three actors reprising their roles.
