(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Russell Brand thinks he has acquired some of George Clooneys power after wearing his Batman suit.

The 35-year-old British actor came across Georges suit from 1997 film Batman & Robin - in which he played the superhero - while shooting scenes for the comedy remake of Arthur, which is set for release next year.

Russell donned the outfit George wore in the movie, and believes some magical superhero powers were passed onto him as a result.

I got to wear George Clooney's Batman suit," he beamed. "There were areas where his sweat would have accumulated so now maybe I now have some Clooney power soaked in by osmosis!"

The funny man also explored the Batmobile Val Kilmer drove during his portrayal of the superhero in 1995 movie Batman Forever. Russell was rather disappointed though, as he found the automobile was a little on the shabby side.

"I was also in Val Kilmer's Batmobile which was quite a sexy experience but the interior was a bit tatty," he added. (C) Cover Media
