Batman statue on Odeon theatre, Bronze statue on Odeon Theatre in Leicester Square, London, England.
The Batman statue is a bronze figure mounted on the roof of the Odeon Theatre in Leicester Square. It rises prominently above the busy plaza and defines part of the entertainment district's skyline.

The sculpture depicts a superhero character from American comics and film, integrated into London's cinema district. Visitors encounter it as part of the square's film heritage.
The figure is visible from various spots around the plaza and easy to spot, especially in the evening when illuminated. Leicester Square Underground station provides direct access to the area.
